@911CORLEBRA777 @karolcummins Now imagine a vertical web through that ancient hub of trade, Istanbul (no Constantinople).

@911CORLEBRA777 @karolcummins Now you see why Georgia and Azerbaijan are so critical, yes? They connect Russia to his friends in Turkey, Syria, Iran.
The 'stans are the buffer, such as it is. Israel has prime sea ports for whoever can befriend it. Watch closely.

@911CORLEBRA777 @karolcummins Americans, time to learn your geography. No more "hur, dur, I can't find Paris on a map." Teach your children and your friend's children that there is a world beyond their shores. Yes, this is important.

@911CORLEBRA777 @karolcummins You see now why India is being heavily courted by Putin. It would be Putin's southern shore and manufacturing haven. Like the Russians, there isn't widespread indoor plumbing yet.

@911CORLEBRA777 @karolcummins You see now why Japan is being heavily courted. And South Korea. You see how vulnerable Thailand and Myanmar and Iraq are. We need to blow apart 1MDB and follow up on the Panama & Paradise Papers to rid the oligarchs of their power & $$ before they move into real war.
