Mogen wij u voorstellen: Maaloula, Syrië

Wij presenteren u het dorp van Waad Thabet: Maaloula. Het ligt niet zo heel ver van Damascus, zo'n vijftig kilometer ten noorden van de Syrische hoofdstad. De bewegende beelden zijn van vorig jaar, dus het lijkt erop dat het dorp de dans ontsprongen heeft wat betreft het westers-zionistische terrorisme in het land.

Los van het feit dat het een plaatje van een plaatsje is, is het ook bijzonder omdat het linguistiek afwijkt van het Arabisch sprekende Syrië. Ze praten in dit dorp samen met nog 2 dorpen in de buurt, als uitzondering op de Arabische regel, West Aramaics. Het is het zoveelste bewijs van de enorme diversiteit, en daarmee ook vrijheid, van het prachtige land.

Vergelijk de beelden van Maaloula, met de beelden uit de Franse hoofdstad Parijs dit weekend.

    On Eve Of 4th Of July Parade U.S. Attempts To Lure Iran Into Shooting Down Another U.S. Plane

    "The case today is not in doubt. The U.S. military definitely tried to provoke Iran into shooting down another one of its planes.

    The plane (een US Air Force RC 135 spionagevliegtuig, Dawg) flew over the islands Abu Musa and Sirri in the Persian Gulf which are Iranian territory and Iranian airspace. It falsely signaled that it was an Iranian plane.
    .......
    The aviation transponder of the U.S. spy plane was set to a code that is associated with Iran. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) defined (pdf) 24-bit addresses that identify the type of the plane and the country where a plane is registered . The 24 bit codes for Iranian registered airplanes begins with the country identifier 0111 0011, written in hexadecimal as 73. The flight radar page that Manu Gomez used displays these 'S-Mode' transponder codes the airplane sends as a six digit hexadecimal number.

    This use of code that identified the plane as Iranian was not a mistake but absolutely intentional:

    There are so many things wrong with what the #USAF is doing here, that are very much not evident to the casual observer.

    1) The RC-135 has changed its unique transponder number to 730000 (hex), an Iranian assigned code. So, the USAF is impersonating an Iranian plane.

    2) As @GDarkconrad pointed out, this isn't an accident, the USAF did this with Venezuelan codes off the coast of #Venezuela too. US reconnaissance planes are impersonating the codes of the countries they are conducting reconnaissance on, endangering future civilian flights.
    ...

    The track shows that the plane was coming from west north west, probably Kuwait, and flew directly over Sirri Island and Abu Musa. It then immediately turned around and flew again over both islands.
    .......
    This morning the U.S. spy plane willingly penetrated Iranian airspace. It squawked a fake code which showed ill intention. This happened on the 31st anniversary of Flight 655. The Iranian military would certainly still like to take revenge for that mass murder. It was a huge provocation likely intended to lure Iran into shooting it down.
    ......
    One wonders who came up with such a nefarious plan. Was it Trump, the great showman, himself? Was that the reason why he ordered the military to join the 4th of July parade on such a short notice? Or was it John Bolton or 'we lie, we cheat, we steal' Mike Pompeo? Some minion at the CIA or CentCom?

    Whoever came up with it, and those who signed off to allow this incident to happen, will now be disappointed. Iran clearly did not fall into their trap.

    The world owns a big thank you to the Iranian air defense crews on Abu Musa for their disciplined behavior.'

    De technologie van het 'spoofen' (een valse identiteit aannemen m.b.v van nagebootste transpondersignalen) is klaarblijkelijk zo ver gevordered dat Amerikaanse spionagevliegtuigen zich probleenmloos voor kunnen doen als Iraanse airliner.
