“People are having trouble understanding how this guy managed to go from one of the most dangerous jihadists in the world in 2017, with a $10 million bounty on his head, to President of Syria in 2024 and now UN delegate, hobnobbing with world rulers in New York on the anniversary of 911. That’s quite a turnaround in just seven years. It is even harder to understand since they all but admit he was installed in Syria by the US/Israel, the same people that had allegedly been seeking him for years.”

Just to add to that, look up Operation Cyclone, which at least until a few years back, was still openly searchable … the real story about the CIA involvement. Now the Ukraine … both the CIA and NATO were in there at Maidan … NATO being the weapons wielders but the really sick killings … they had CIA input, along with Azov type gangs in charge of those.

“The Killers is an expansion of a short story by Ernest Hemingway. The first ten minutes of this film is pure Hemingway with two contract gunman occupying and terrorizing a greasy spoon diner. Two of the most malevolent character actors around, Charles McGraw and William Conrad are the hit men.

They’re there to kill Burt Lancaster, known to the town as just a simple garage mechanic. Because he left a small insurance policy, his death was investigated by insurance cop Edmond O’Brien. Naturally Lancaster was no simple garage mechanic by any means. O’Brien comes up with Burt’s real identity and the reason why a few people wanted him dead.

The Killers was a big break film for Burt Lancaster. He had only done one previous film and that was Desert Fury for Paramount studios which had signed him. Because Universal was looking for an unknown to play the victim, Lancaster’s agent was able to land him the part. And because Desert Fury was held up, The Killers became his debut film and he was a star from his first film.

This was also a milestone film for Ava Gardner as well. After The Killers, Louis B. Mayer was most reluctant to lend her out any longer due to the notice that she got.

The plot of The Killers is very similar to that of Out of the Past with Lancaster in the luckless Robert Mitchum role. As for Ava Gardner in her portrayal, she’s taking a couple of pages from the Mary Astor school of double crossing, two timing dames. At least Mary had Sam Spade’s promise he’d wait for her. 

The Killers is a must for Burt Lancaster fans who want to see the film that launched his career.”
