The Hill: Former military officials fear surge of cash, weaponry to Iran

A group of retired high-ranking military officials warn the United States will have a difficult time maintaining stability in the Middle East once the Iran nuclear deal goes into effect.

While the administration has sought to assure Gulf allies that the U.S. will maintain a robust military posture to counter a strengthened Iran, looming budget cuts could make the task difficult.

The Pentagon facing $500 billion in cuts through 2021 known under budget caps imposed by the 2011 Budget Control Act, on top of $487 billion of already planned cuts.

The retired officials warn in a new report that the nuclear deal would allow Iran to gain billions of dollars in revenue from lifted sanctions and increased oil revenues, while the U.S. defense budget would remain constrained under budget cuts known as sequestration.

WNU Editor: President Obama believes otherwise .... Iran nuclear deal crucial for Middle East peace: Barack Obama (AP).

IN ACTION: A sniper shoots to kill on a sortie in Afghanistan

Mirror: SAS ready to send its sniper gunship into battle against Islamic State terrorists

THE SAS are ready to dispatch a sniper gunship to kill terrorists in Iraq and Syria, the Daily Star Sunday can reveal.

The battle-proven aircraft is a specially converted RAF Chinook helicopter equipped with sniper firing positions and a multi-barrel mini-gun.

The SAS has been fighting in Iraq and Syria for the past year but top brass now want the elite force to carry out more raids against Islamic State thugs.

Chancellor George Osborne said yesterday that the current Syrian refugee crisis must be dealt with "at source", his comments coming as senior Tories demand RAF air strikes against IS in Syria.

The sniper gunship is one of the most deadly weapons in the SAS arsenal. Snipers inside the aircraft can engage multiple ground targets using highly accurate rifles.

WNU Editor: This must be an impressive weapons platform. Aside from a few blurred images that have been published on what is inside this converted Chinook helicopter, there are no other pictures or videos of it in action.

FOX News: US special ops clinches deal for cutting-edge ATVs

Who doesn't love an all-terrain vehicle? U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) is no exception.

Last week Medina, Minn.-based Polaris Defense announced that it is supplying the U.S. military with more all-terrain vehicles (ATVs).

The company has been supplying its MRZR ATVs to SOCOM for three years – and now special forces are getting their hands on even more.

The new order is for MRZR 2 and MRZR 4s. The MRZR2 is an ideal variant to carry two operators and the MRZR 4 can carry four, or even six, depending on the configuration.

WNU Editor: I want one.

BBC

Daily Mail: Bastion on the brink: American Special Forces defend former British HQ as Taliban close in - and Afghan army pays the rebels not to attack

* Camp Bastion, in Afghanistan, is in danger of being over-run by the Taliban
* Former British Army base is being protected by US Special Forces soldiers
* Security source says Afghan army is paying Taliban not to attack the site
* Final 1,500 British troops left headquarters in Helmand Province last year

Camp Bastion, the former British Army headquarters in Helmand, Afghanistan, is in such danger of being over-run by the Taliban that an American Special Forces team has been deployed to protect it.

In a shocking indictment of how far security has collapsed in the province since Britain handed over the base to the Afghan National Army (ANA) last year, the United States has been forced to use 90 'Special Operations' soldiers to defend the site.

WNU Editor: This is ending badly.

Washington Times: Kurdish peshmerga plead for arms as Islamic State turns U.S. military vehicles into bombs

IRBIL, Iraq — Gen. Dedawa Khurshid, a commander of the Kurdish peshmerga forces battling the Islamic State militants, faces a unique terrorist-style of warfare on a daily basis.

"Daesh modifies trucks and bulldozers by welding steel all over them," said Gen. Khurshid, using the Arabic term for the jihadi Islamic State, which now controls large swaths of Iraq and Syria. "Then they take high explosives and mount them in a special way on the front of the vehicles. A man will then take the vehicle and drive into our line and detonate it."

Called VBEDs — or vehicle-borne explosive devices, as opposed to the far better known IEDs, or improvised explosive devices designed to function like booby traps or land mines — the trucks typically carry about 550 pounds of explosives that can injure and kill soldiers within a radius of less than 900 yards when detonated, the general said.

WNU Editor: And apparently the Islamic State has a lot of vehicles that they can use .... Dude, where's my Humvee? Iraq losing equipment to Islamic State at staggering rate (Reuters).

Syrian Military Official Admits That There Has Been A ‘Big Shift’ In Russian Military Support For Assad

Reuters: Syrian military official: There's been a 'big shift' in Russian military support for Assad

While the desperate flight of Syrians from their country's war was dominating news bulletins this summer, yet another diplomatic push to end the four-year-old conflict was quietly running into the sand.

That largely unnoticed failure has reinforced the view amongst Syria experts that there is no solution in sight, with one of the biggest obstacles a seemingly unbridgeable international divide over President Bashar al-Assad's future.

As a consequence, Syria looks set for ever greater fragmentation into a patchwork of territories, one of them the diminishing Damascus-based state where Assad appears confident of survival with backing from his Russian and Iranian allies.

WNU Editor: From what I am reading in Russian social media, talking with my Russian friends and family in Russia .... there is zero public support for Russia to become involved in the Syrian conflict. As to why is Putin pursuing this course .... with no public support .... and no net benefit and no exit strategy .... I am still mystified. Something has happened that made Putin decide that this is the best course for Russia .... my prediction .... we will learn the reasons why in the next few weeks.

Update: Some are wondering if this increase in Russian military support is blow-back because of U.S. sanctions and Ukraine .... Analysts Link Syria to Latest US Sanctions on Russia (Defense News).

Reuters: In rich Gulf Arab states, some feel shamed by refugee response

When Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, fellow Gulf states raced to shelter thousands of displaced Kuwaitis. Fast forward 25 years, and the homeless from Syria's nearby war have found scant refuge in the Arab world's richest states.

For critics of the Gulf's affluent monarchies the contrast is profoundly unflattering, especially as several are backers of the combatants in Syria's conflict, so must, they argue, shoulder a special responsibility for its consequences.

The wrenching image of a Syrian Kurdish refugee boy drowned on a Turkish beach has stoked debate in Europe. The official silence of Gulf Arab dynasties makes many Gulf citizens uneasy.

Previous Post: The Arab World's Wealthiest Nations Are Not Welcoming Syria's Refugees

WNU Editor: Fears of terrorism, social and political instability, economic dislocation, etc. .... these countries have made it very clear .... because of these reasons (and more that I have not bothered to list) .... they do not want these refugees coming to their country.

SKY News: Germany: 'No Limit' To Refugees We'll Take In

Germany says it "has the strength to do what is necessary" as it prepares to accept 7,000 refugees on Saturday alone.

Chancellor Angela Merkel has said there is no legal limit to the number of asylum seekers Germany will take in, with at least 800,000 expected this year alone.

Mrs Merkel was speaking as thousands of exhausted refugees were bussed from Hungary into Austria, with most thought to be en route to Germany.

German police said at least 2,000 people had arrived at Munich railway station so far, with up to 7,000 expected by nightfall.

Update: Merkel: No legal limit to asylum seekers Germany can take (AP)

WNU Editor: Comments like that will only encourage millions to make the journey. The tragedy of all of this is that Germany cannot even accommodate the refugees who are already in the country .... let alone the 800,000 it expects in the next few months .... which in my opinion is a ridiculously low number. Not surprising .... this crisis is breaking up her coalition government .... The refugee crisis is causing huge political problems for Angela Merkel (Reuters).

NBC: Bernie Sanders Leads Hillary Clinton by 9 in New Hampshire, Gains in Iowa: Poll

Bernie Sanders has jumped out to a nine-point lead over front-runner Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, and he's gained ground on her among Iowa voters in the Democratic presidential race, according to a pair of brand-new NBC News/Marist polls.

In New Hampshire, the Vermont senator gets the support of 41 percent of Democratic voters, Clinton gets 32 percent and Vice President Joe Biden gets 16 percent. No other Democratic candidate receives more than 1 percent.

Back in July's NBC/Marist poll, Clinton was ahead of Sanders in the Granite State by 10 points, 42 percent to 32 percent, with Biden at 12 percent.

Without Biden in the race, Sanders' lead over Clinton in the current survey increases to 11 points, 49 percent to 38 percent.

WNU Editor: The focus from the media for the past month has been on the Republican primary .... but the Democrat primary is becoming just as interesting. Bottom line .... Hillary Clinton is not creating the enthusiasm for her campaign that many were hoping for. And while I do not see a socialist like Bernie Sanders winning the Democrat primary .... there is a lot of dissatisfaction in teh Democrat Party rank and file .... and deservedly so. As for Jeb Bush and the Republican primary .... the Bush family and their supporters have had an enormous influence on the Republican Party since the 1980s .... and when Bush senior took the Presidency in 1988 he put an end to the Reagan era and what it stood for. I see that shifting now .... with the Bush era now ending .... and in my opinion deservedly so.
