China To Interfere In Syria?

As Russia’s Caspian Sea fleet launched precision-guided cruise missiles at Syrian rebel positions, a Chinese naval vessel loomed menacingly in the background, maintaining its presence in the Mediterranean Sea amid Chinese denials that the People’s Liberation Army will enter the Syrian conflict.

A Middle Eastern defense official confirmed that a Chinese military ship is located a short trip of several “hours” from the Syrian coast. The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that while China’s intentions are unclear, the vessel’s presence is well known to Middle Eastern and Persian Gulf countries as well as to the U.S. and Russia.

The official said that China is reluctant to directly intervene in Syria or approach Syrian waters unless the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad formally requests the assistance of Chinese military advisers.

Even then, China may only take on an advisory role and not carry out military missions alongside the Russians and Syrians, the official said.

Reconfirming information reported by this journalist last month, the official said another option being discussed is for the Russian government to make a public gesture toward requesting the Chinese presence.

A Syrian regime source confirmed knowledge of the Chinese vessel and said no decision has been made by Assad’s regime about requesting any Chinese assistance in fighting the years-long insurgency led by Middle East rebels.

Publicly, China has maintained a detached posture toward the Syrian conflict.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said at the UN Security Council last week that “the international community cannot look on without lifting a finger, but also ought not to interfere arbitrarily.”

 

Gennifer Flowers Speaks Out

For the first time since Hillary Clinton announced her candidacy for president, Bill Clinton’s notorious mistress for 12 years, Gennifer Flowers, is now speaking out, calling Hillary’s bid to run in part on women’s issues “a joke.”

In the wide-ranging interview on “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio,” Flowers further accused Hillary of being “an enabler that has encouraged [Bill] to go out and do whatever he does with women.”

“She always got things on the back of her husband. … I think it’s a joke that she would run on women’s issues.”

Flowers used the interview to drop a few new bombshells, including revealing for the first time that she has something incriminating on Bill Clinton locked in a safety deposit box – mysterious contents she said the Clintons know she possesses and that she has used to ensure her “safety.”

Flowers said she believes discussing Bill Clinton’s former lovers in the context of Hillary’s 2016 campaign is appropriate, especially since some of those women say they were damaged by the Clintons.

“Our stories should come back up with the circumstances, with Hillary running. It should come back to the forefront again,” she said.

Asked what she thinks of Hillary’s candidacy and her platform focusing in part on women’s issues, Flowers began by explaining, “You know, people criticize me for talking about her because I had an affair with her husband.”

“And I don’t blame them for that,” she continued. “I understand that. I understand that they can be mad at me. I get it. I accept my responsibility. … But she’s never accepted her responsibility at being an enabler. She’s been an enabler that has encouraged him to go out and do whatever he does with women.”

“Woman’s rights. Ha!” Flowers said. “I personally have worked my tail off to get where I am in the entertainment business, which has not been easy since the Clinton scandal, by the way. … Hillary never put up a shingle and worked for her clients and built her clientele. She always got things on the back of her husband. … I think it’s a joke that she would run on women’s issues.”

Flowers discussed a manuscript she says she has been working on for five years, in large part to introduce herself to the public beyond just the Clinton scandal.

She revealed on the show that in the first chapter of the book, she deals with an internal conflict about whether to release to the public the contents of a safety deposit box containing some kind of evidence against Bill Clinton.

“My book starts off in the first chapter where I’m actually sitting on my bed and I’m looking at my car keys. And on my car key set there is a safety deposit box key and I’m sitting there contemplating and wondering if I should make public what’s in that safety deposit box.”

“And the only reason that I haven’t in the past is because my mother still lives. I’m at a crossroads if this is something that I should go ahead and do now. Because something has just occurred. And you know, there’s so many falsehoods and lies about me and a picture that’s painted by them, Bill and Hillary and so on.”

“And I’m thinking this would really do it. And then because of my mom I decided that probably not right now.”

I asked Flowers for more details on what’s inside the deposit box.

“It’s something that [Bill] is aware that I have and it’s probably the reason that I’m still around,” she replied. “It’s been sort of my safety net. And that’s another decision that’s part of the decision to release it or hold on to it and hope that it helps with my safety.”

Flowers said of the Clintons, “A lot of damage and attempted damage has been done to me by them. By Bill and Hillary.”

“But I find myself interestingly enough sometimes not thinking of that as much as I should. Because I don’t want to live my life in anger.”
