MESOP TODAYS QUOTATION : CONCERNING JEREMY CORBYN / ANOTHER NEW GREAT EUROPEAN LEADER OF THE LEFT
Jeremy Corbyn referred to the Islamist terrorist organizations Hamas & Hezbollah as his friends.
“It will be my pleasure and my honor to host an event in Parliament where our friends from Hezbollah will be speaking,” Corbyn said in a 2009 speech. “I’ve also invited friends from Hamas to come and speak as well. Unfortunately, the Israelis would not allow them to travel here so it’s going to be only friends from Hezbollah.” http://www.mesop.de/?p=65720

MESOP FIRST RUSSIAN BODY COUNTS : Syria Daily: “Military Targets”? Russia’s Airstrikes Kill Family of 9 & Civil Defense Workers
By Scott Lucas October 4, 2015 07:10 Updated -UPDATE 1115 GMT: Russia has carried out more airstrikes on Sunday on opposition-held areas of Homs and Idlib Provinces.Activists report attacks on the Rastan Plain in northern Homs Province (see map), posting videos of injured children.The claims fit with the declaration of pro-regime websites that the Syrian military has begun its ground offensive on the Rastan Plain.The latest attack on Talbiseh, where 50 people were reportedly killed on the first day of Russian bombing: The Russian Ministry of Defense says bombing missions were carried out against eight targets near Jisr al-Shughour in Idlib Province on the Turkish border, converting the opposition-held area into “Islamic State” positions.Jisr al-Shughour was captured by rebels in late April. The Islamic State has no presence in Idlib Province. Watch full report – http://www.mesop.de/?p=65739

MESOP TODAYS OPINION ON SOUTH KURDISTAN : Growing divisions challenge Kurdish autonomy
By Farid Mirbagheri – 4 Oct 2015 – Professor SM Farid Mirbagheri is professor of International Relations in the Department of European Studies and International Relations at the University of Nicosia
The Kurdistan region in Iraq is going through a tumultuous phase. Other than the carnage and savagery inflicted by the Islamic State and its violent ramifications, the region is suffering from serious political divisions, endemic corruption and diminishing public confidence in their leaders.
Although the Iraqi Kurds are eager for recognition in the international community as a state, the region’s problems are in fact pushing them in the opposite direction, even bringing the presidency of Masoud Barzani into question particularly since his term officially ended on August 20. If left unchecked, the geographic and political divisions could potentially lead to a split region and even civil unrest. Read all: http://www.mesop.de/?p=65749

MESOP : DIE ERSTEN INTERNATIONALEN EUROPÄISCHEN FREIWILLIGEN BRIGADEN GEGEN DEN ISLAMISMUS / TASK FORCE LAFAYETTE
Franzosen gegen den IS Auf eigene Faust den Terror bekämpfen / Michaela Wiegel
Nur Luftangriffe gegen den Islamischen Staat findet er „zu milde“: In Frankreich hat ein ehemaliger Berufssoldat eine private Kampfgruppe gegen den IS gegründet. Im Dezember wollen sie in den Irak aufbrechen. Ihr Vorbild ist der Marquis de La Fayette, der berühmte französische Freiheitskämpfer, der 1777 in den amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg zog. Deshalb haben die ehemaligen französischen Berufssoldaten ihre Gruppe „Task force Lafayette“ genannt. Auch sie wollen für die Freiheit eintreten und gegen die Terrororganisation „Islamischer Staat“ (IS) kämpfen. Read all: http://www.mesop.de/?p=65706

„Deutschland bereit der Türkei Sicherheitszone in Syrien zu gewähren. Brüssel verspricht Erdogan beschleunigte Anstrengen zur Erlangung der Vollmitgliedschaft in der EU“.
In Brüssel ist ein Aktionsplan gegen den Flüchtlingsstrom gereift: Griechen und Türken sollen gemeinsam vor der Küste patrouillieren, Flüchtlinge in die Türkei gebracht werden. Dort sollen sechs neue Lager für bis zu zwei Millionen Menschen entstehen. – 04.10.2015, von Thomas Gutschker (FAZ) http://www.mesop.de/?p=65708
