Talk:Kasab offensive

Tower 45
There is a "Hill 45" near the Kasab border crossing. It should not be confused with the TV link tower "Tower 45" further south. There are interesting videos linked to this Wikimapia page, showing the clashes of March 23-25: Note the two Chechen leaders in the freeze frames. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 13:36, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

Kardashian Counter-Offensive
Holy shit. I had seen the town Karadash next to this attacked Armenian town, and I finally decided to see if this imaginary headline, maybe worth a try, would be true: Kardshian Girls' Ancestral Hometown Next to Syrian Village Overrun by Turksih-Tended Terrorists. Kim at least (Not an expert, I presume) made some link already, perhaps. FWIW, the top two results that popped up, and I didn't read this yet:
 * AOL News April 1 Diaa Hadid, AP): Kim Kardashian wades into Syria war debate, potentially bolstered false claims
 * Kim Kardashian has waded into Syria's conflict, calling on fans through Twitter to save the ancient Armenian Christian village of Kassab, whose residents fled as rebels seized control of the hamlet in late March. She appeared to have bolstered false claims by loyalists of Syrian President Bashar Assad, who said Syrian rebels desecrated the village's churches and slaughtered residents. She used the #SaveKessab hashtag that was used to spread the false claims, causing its popularity to explode.
