Middle East News

So there seems to be alot happening in the middle east with Israel, Syria, and Iran.
I have started this thread to try and keep track of various news developments as they happen in the future.
We may very well be on the way to seeing WW3 unfold in the next 3-6 months.
It would be nice if others could post news as it happens so we can keep track of what is going on and where.
This thread is for all the middle east wether Yemen, Iraq, Turkey or wherever.
So please do post news and talk about what is happening in the middle east.



Israel opens artillery fire on Syria's Golan Heights
Israel has opened artillery fire on Syria’s border regions in the southeast.
The Israeli military says it has hit two Syrian army posts on the Golan Heights. The attacks have caused no damage or casualties. The Israeli military says the artillery fire was in retaliation for suspected rocket attacks from Syria which have landed on the occupied parts of the Golan Heights. This is not the first time Israel strikes positions on the Syrian soil. Tel Aviv says Damascus is responsible for any aggression emanating from Syria.


Israel and Russia meet over Syria


Russia, America, Israel, Syria, isil, and Iran!

Well if there is muslim bashing in the news then it would be relavent, otherwise I hope ATS folks keep to the topic of news, and thier opinions of the news of course.

Isreal just does whatever it wants and nobody says a thing Huh?

You just saying that has turned it into that.... So thank you.

If everyone had your attitude, things would be a lot worse than they are now. So are we to censor all news now that comes from the Middle East, so the world can just stick their heads in the sand and hope someone doesn't come and stick a finger in their rear?

If the Middle East was 95% Christian would it be a Christian bashing thread? How about if they were militaristic cows? Would it be a cow tipping thread?

All the negativity coming from people about this topic is only showing the world stance on the subject. We have hundreds of thousands of immigrants flooding borders in claims of sanctuary. But those claiming it only turn around and expect the host countries to conform to their beliefs or get threatened.

We have schools in Germany sending home letters saying that their young girls should dress in the least provocative manner in fears that they may be raped or beaten walking to school. Is that something we should censor?

There have been also ,many unconfirmed reports of some of the immigrants being part of terrorist groups. And essentially it seems like it's the Trojan horse all over again.

This has nothing to do with muslim bashing because people would still have the same view on it with any religion. Yes many are Muslim, but this has to do with the actions of what people are doing. Some of those actions are stemming from their religion though.

I for one welcome any and all news about this subject even if a few bad apples spoil it. Because I can then say I was informed, and have participated on the subject rather than act like it isnt happening.

If this goes on any longer then EVERYONE will be a part of it if they like it or not.

So OP thank you for creating a thread for information on the matter.

Yea because to be Muslim is to be everything the west has over come and fervently denies? Is that not what you are saying?

I bash extremists!


Why is it when I bash extremists you start talking about the majority or peaceful Muslims?I'm talking about extremists are you bashing them? No, you are getting offended when I bash them, how strange is that? What kind of logical conclusion should I draw from that.

No no don't be a politician and dance around my question . Show me evidence that I get offended when you bash extremist ? or defend them.. Oh it seems you have edited your original post .

By all means bash all you want , my problem is when Islam in general is attacked and their is NO thread " bashing extremist " that we don't see Islam in general being attacked .


Seems like you are just looking for a reason to pop off , nobody is holding you back from bashing . here's a bat fella bash them extremist up! Just don't harm the innocnet muslims who pratice real true Islam.

a reply to: Kapusta

That's because 'you' (the peaceful majority) end up defending things like sharia law, and you say oh the extremists don't understand how it was truly meant, then you say oh the west doesn't understand how sharia law was truly meant either. Yea so, pretty much you are just the misunderstood majority who happens to number in the billions, that's one hell of a lot of misunderstood folks on this planet, wouldn't you say?that is of course, if you defend sharia law?

Actually, you're just trolling. Just as I am, when I share my observation of the current trend on ats and state "It will just turn into a Muslim defending thread. " nanernaner boo boo, you started it! Lol. Neither of our commentary add to the op, nor are on topic. Just plain ol trolling.

I would expect, after reading some of your postings, regarding the dedication to your chosen faith and much of your proclamations to not be held accountable to the actions of those extremist within your ranks (because like it or not, they are in YOUR ranks) that you would be more likely to lead by example, not project/expect the worst in others. Isn't that what you've spent your time doing? Telling others, not to judge you by the worst of you?

Oh, the irony in that post, just sayin....

That was a successful shelling indeed... They almost accomplished annhiating some old ladies cat... Haha that was great.

Guessing it was a dud by the way it just slapped the ground with no damage.
