Iranian Revolutionary Guard Commander Killed in Syria

On Thursday, Iran announced that Commander Hassan Shateri of the Revolutionary Guard was killed.

Shateri was officially the head of the Iranian Committee for the Reconstruction of Lebanon.

Yet he was admittedly killed while in Syria, by rebel forces.

Iran has repeatedly been accused of supplying Syria with weapons, ammunition, and military experts.

The Commander's presence in Syria would definitely once again suggest that those accusations have real weight.

Syrian Rebels Seize Major Oil Field

The Assad regime took another blow, on Thursday, as rebel forces made further gains.

Rebel forces seized the town of Shadadah as well as the neighboring Jbeysa oil field, which is one of the largest in the country. Other rebels captured a military base near the town of al-Sahwa, in the south.

The loss of the oil field puts greater strains on the nations economy. That in turn puts greater pressure on the regime which continues fighting a war, that they are very slowly losing.

Despite their not showing any signs of giving up, national forces have not gained ground in months. They brag about stopping rebel attacks, in some areas, while the rebels are almost daily able to claim gains.

Meanwhile lives continued to be lost. With the total around seventy thousand, during the twenty-two month long conflict.

Georgia Trying to Claim Tennessee Land

Georgia is attempting to argue that the border with Tennessee has been placed wrong. According to them, the border is actually off by a mile or more.

Officially, the border is set at the thirty-fifth parallel, but their argument is that it wasn't measured correctly in 1818. It's such a big deal to them that the Georgia State House voted 171-2 to seek the land that they say belongs to them.
What's at stake is water rights. Currently the recognized border puts the Tennessee River out of reach for Georgia to gain any rights to the water. However, the border they claim would put a section of it, near the Alabama border, in Georgia, giving them rights.

It would also put a good chunk of Chattanooga, inside of Georgia. If the border was moved, about thirty-thousand of the cities residents would find their state changing. It would also see their taxes increase as Tennessee does not have a state income tax, while Georgia has one of six percent. A border move would also change Tennessee and Alabama's border a bit.
