"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Russian (VKS literally military space force) air force has finished today its mission in Syria. This morning our planes took off from air base in Syria and set their course to Russian air bases. In less than half a year ISIS was exterminated and reduced. What is left of ISIS fled to Turkey and Iraq. From here on Syrian army can handle the situation itself. Syrian people are returning to their homes and rebuilding their lives.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Can anyone informed please compare the military budget spent from NATO vs the one from russian armed forces? Also the time frame.

Im sure there was no willing plan from nato to be ineffective against ISIS, we probably just observed the biggest bad management of resources from our alliance in the century. /sarcasm off

US/NATO/coalition air forces (heh) have zero collateral damage constraints imposed mostly by the US commander and chief. Neither the French nor the Russians gave a crap about those constraints.

NATO forces are 80% USA troops, materiel and funding. It's been that way from inception.

May as well leave the planes on the ground or below decks on the carriers.

I doubt ISIS is gone for good. They migrated to Europe.

What about the leader (Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi) of ISIS? Is he gone?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

This Isis trick has been a con artist masterpiece.

The us and turkey funding islamic terrorists (both isis and al nushra which is an al quaeda department) to weaken assad while pretending to fight them while doing **** despite the biggest and most expensive war machine ever built in human history.

Russia coming out of nowhere pretending to reach middle east to fight Isis while in fact doing most of the bombing against nato supported islamists fighting assad and ceasing the operations only once their allied is safe and their main port in the mediterranean sea has been fortified.

But the goebbels prize for propaganda goes to western media painting al nushra which is a renewed version of al quaeda as "freedom fighters", so basically the US have been paying with their tax payers money a group affiliated to those accused to taking down the twin towers just because in this particular moment they were useful against assad.

Thats simply amazing, not even the fake "spontaneous" revolutions in northern africa of the last years managed to reach such a high level of hoax.

Its even more funny than we they convinced that Putin was responsible for the mess in ukraine, despite the fact that the government overthrown was in fact pro russia...

Dont get me wrong Im not mocking any of you for the simple fact that I am myself one of you, we are the biggest problem of the world right now and not even the nazis posed such a big threath to world peace as we are now.

What do you mean by this? The reason why the elites are funding these terrorist groups because the elites have been funding both sides of the war since war has been profitable. This is nothing new.

I dont recall any financial elite funding assad nor the SAA, the western money and support were only at the benefit of al nushra (money and weapons openly) and isis itself (oil bought and guns provided from nato members through turkey).

Assad's regime is being supported by Russia who in turn is being funded by the elites.

So you support the "they own the whole world and its all a scene" theory?

Im not asking to bash, Im asking to know what you think because if thats the case we have different views that cannot be agreed.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I think that:
- Russia mainly wanted to show the world that they're still a real power (after Obama called them "regional"), and that nothing moves without consulting them first. Not nice, but achieved
- The plan was definitely to help Assad for a bit (and hurt IS only on the side). Now Russia is losing patience with the guy after he announced to hold elections where his rule would be "non-negotiable". By withdrawing, they are forcing him to negotiate.

Finally, an old cable from the US embassy in Damascus talking about provoking Assad into making stupid decisions:
