The Actual News---Not The obama Media Friendly Propped Up Filtered Version

I forget who steered me to the Debka File, but I remember they said Debka, an Israeli News website seemed to be connected with Shin Bet, the new Mossad. Anyway here are two news stories, the real news, that reports the version you ain't getting here in the land of liberty.

Obama extends Assad's Brutal Syrian Crackdown Time Limit.

Obama and Erdogan grant Assad 15 days to finish the uprising
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report

13 Aug. Thursday night, Aug. 11, US President Barack Obama and Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan agreed to set Syrian President Bashar Assad the deadline of Aug. 27 for extinguishing the popular uprising against his rule and starting to implement genuine democratic reforms. If he went back on his word, then Obama and Erdogan would talk again about a possible US-Turkish military operation in Syria. They decided to trust Assad "one last time" regardless of his broken promises in the past.
Turkey has called up reserves for transfer to Syrian border.
DEBKAfile notes: The Syrian ruler has finagled a free hand for intensifying his crackdown on dissent with an unabashed ferocity few tyrants can match. Washington would still rather believe he is a reformer than force him out of power.
Tuesday, Assad invited the Turkish minister and reporters to see for themselves that he was pulling his tanks out of Hama (after their guns had brutalized protesters for weeks). None were allowed to leave the official vehicles (lest they see whole sections of a major city reduced to rubble). As soon as Davutoglu flew out, the tanks rolled back into the city.

Libyan rebel "gains" smokescreen for talks in Tunisia
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report

16 Aug. The rush of military advances claimed by the Libyan rebels and the rumors of the imminent collapse of Muammar Qaddafi's army and his imminent flight are designed, DEBKAfile's military and intelligence sources report, as a smokescreen for what is going on. It conceals the semi-secret opening of Libyan government-rebel talks on the Tunisian island of Djerba and significant progress they have made. Another is the deep divisions in the rebel leadership.
On the table, according to our sources, is a step-by-step process (first revealed on this site), whereby Muammar Qaddafi will relinquish power in stages synchronized with the steps for the transfer of power to a new Libyan government, which must have room at the top for his sons. They would share power with his close loyalists, the tribes supporting his regime and rebel groups.
Under the deal, Qaddafi would not have to leave Libya and would receive guarantees for his personal safety.
His representatives at the Dherba meeting are Foreign Minister Abdelati Obeidi, Health Minister Ahmed HIjazi and Social Affairs Minister Ibrahim Cherif
