EN 10311:2005 (E) 7 4 Types of joint 4.1 Butt welded joints Butt-welded joints shall be made between tubes or tubes and fittings with their ends prepared in accordance with EN 10224. The maximum gap between the ends of the tubes or the tubes and fittings when set up for welding shall be in accordance with EN 1011-2. 4.2 Welded spigot and socket (sleeve) joints 4.2.1 General Welded spigot and socket (sleeve) joints for welding shall comply with 4.2.2 or 4.2.3. The general form of the joints given in Figure 1 may differ in detail from one manufacturer to another, however the principal dimensions shown shall be measured, using appropriate equipment, and values shall be as stated, subject to the manufacturers stipulated tolerances. NOTE The dimensions of sleeve joints apply when they are shaped or made on tubes and/or fittings. On tubes and fittings of outside diameter smaller than 711 mm, the joint may be welded on the outside only. On tubes or fittings with outside diameter 711 mm and larger, welding may be either inside, or outside, or both inside and outside. Such joints have been designed to allow the same forces to be transmitted as if the welds were fillet welds of a size appropriate to the thickness of the materials being joined. 4.2.2 Spigot and socket (sleeve) joints (type 1) For type 1 joints (see Figure 1) the tubes or fittings shall be supplied with spigot end parallel and sleeve end either parallel or with the diameter tapered by approximately 0,8 mm on diameter per 25 mm length of sleeve. These latter joints are designed for taper sleeves, so that the depth of penetration of the spigot into the sleeve anywhere around the circumference shall be not less than 30 mm but shall also be sufficient, if applicable, to accommodate any holes made in the sleeve to permit testing of the joint. When used to accommodate small changes in pipeline direction, the spigot shall additionally penetrate the sleeve around the whole circumference to an average depth of not less than 40 mm. NOTE 1 At maximum penetration, the spigot can locate in the undimensioned transition area between the sleeve and the tube body. Care should be taken in expanding the tube end to prevent excessive weld gaps between the spigot and sleeve. The manufacturer or supplier shall obtain from the purchaser at the time of enquiry and order specific details of the end preparation necessary for tubes and fittings for use with these types of joint. NOTE 2 Assembly of sleeve joints on site in preparation for welding may require mechanical alignment aids e.g. props, jacks or wedges. 4.2.3 Spigot and socket (sleeve) joints (type 2) For type 2 joints (see Figure 1) the tubes or fittings shall be supplied with the spigot end and the sleeve end parallel. The collar forming the sleeve shall be fabricated with not more than one longitudinal weld and shall be welded externally and internally to the sleeve tube. To ensure an adequate space between the spigot end and the internal collar weld to effect the inside joint weld, if required, the minimum sleeve length shall be (150 + 2T) mm for D > 168,3 mm and (100+ 2T) mm for D ≤ 168,3 mm, where T is the wall thickness of the sleeve.

The manufacturer or supplier of the threaded joints shall obtain information at the time of enquiry and order confirming the appropriate part of EN 10226 required. NOTE 1 Threaded joints are normally made between tubes in accordance with EN 10255 and fittings in accordance with EN 10241 (steel) and/or EN 10242 (malleable cast iron). NOTE 2 An appropriate sealing material should be applied to the threads before making the joint.
EN 10311:2005 (E) 11 4.6 Spigot and socket joints with seal A general form of a spigot and socket joint with seal is given in Figure 4.
As these types of joint can differ in detail from one manufacturer to another, the manufacturer shall define the principal dimensions at the time of enquiry and order. These dimensions shall be measured, using appropriate equipment, and values shall be as stated, subject to the manufacturers stipulated tolerances.
NOTE 1 The spigot and socket joint with seal shown in Figure 4 is a general form.
Details of other versions can be found in international and national publications.
The connection is produced by inserting the spigot end into the socket end that contains a rubber seal. By inserting the spigot end into the socket, the rubber seal is deformed in an axial direction and seals the connection by the resilience present in the rubber seal. NOTE 3 The insertion depth of the spigot into the socket is critical to ensure good sealing.
Joint details can differ from one manufacturer to another and the insertion depth is normally specific to the particular make of joint used. NOTE 4 To absorb axial forces in the connection, special rubber rings can be required.

As the lengths S and L can vary from one manufacturer to another, the manufacturer shall define these principal dimensions at the time of enquiry and order.
These dimensions shall be measured, using appropriate equipment, and values shall be as states, subject to the manufacturer's stipulated tolerances. NOTE 1 The sleeve length and tolerance at the end of the tube or fitting is specific to the particular make of coupling used.
NOTE 2 This type of coupling can be used for the connection of different diameters and/or different materials.

Each groove and coupling shall have a designated allowable operating pressure.
As these types of joint can differ in detail from one manufacturer to another, the manufacturer shall define the principal dimensions at the time of enquiry and order.
These dimensions shall be measured, using appropriate equipment, and values shall be as stated, subject to the manufacturers stipulated tolerances.
Figure 6 — Grooved and shouldered couplings (general form) 5 Classification 5.1 General Joints shall be classified as non-restrained (see 5.2) or restrained (see 5.3) and either rigid (see 5.4) or adjustable, (see 5.5).
EN 10311:2005 (E) 13 5.2 Non-restrained joints Non-restrained joints shall have adequate axial withdrawal to accommodate any axial spigot movement induced by temperature fluctuations and the Poisson contraction of the tube or tube and fitting under internal pressure in addition to the specified angular deflection. NOTE Spigot and socket joints with seal and some mechanical joints e.g. slip-on couplings are non-restrained joints. 5.3 Restrained joints Restrained joints shall withstand the end-thrust due to internal pressure and, where applicable, due to temperature fluctuation and the Poisson contraction of the tube or tube and fitting under internal pressure. NOTE Butt-welded joints, welded spigot and socket (or sleeve) joints, welding collars, flanged joints, threaded joints and some mechanical couplings are restrained joints. 5.4 Rigid joints Rigid joints shall maintain the axial alignment of tubes or tubes and fittings to within 2°. NOTE Butt-welded joints, spigot and socket (or sleeve) joints (after welding), welding collars, flanged joints, threaded joints and some mechanical couplings are rigid joints. 5.5 Adjustable joints Adjustable joints shall accommodate angular displacement of tubes or tube and fitting of not less than: 3 ° 30' for D ≤ 300 2 ° 30' for D 300 mm to 700 mm 1 ° 30' for D > 700 mm NOTE Welded spigot and socket (or sleeve) joints with taper sleeves before welding, spigot and socket joints with seal and some mechanical couplings are adjustable joints. 6 Requirements 6.1 General Joints shall exhibit no visible leakage or ingress, as appropriate, of aqueous liquid when subjected to the following type tests by the manufacturer:  Test 1: positive internal hydrostatic pressure in accordance with 7.3.2; the type test pressure shall be 1,5 p + 5 bar1).  Test 2: negative internal pressure of 0,8 bar below atmospheric pressure (approximately 0,1 bar1) absolute pressure), in accordance with 7.3.3.  Test 3: positive external hydrostatic pressure of 2 bar1), in accordance with 7.3.4 when intended for use at depths greater than 5 m below water level.

This test applies to spigot and socket joints with seal (see 4.6).  Where p is the allowable maximum operating pressure of the joint declared by the manufacturer. Where it can be shown by either physical test results (see 8.1), calculation or compliance with tabulated values that joint designs that have already been in service for a minimum of 10 years prior to the first publication of this document can meet the necessary essential characteristics, then Test 4 shall be deemed not to be necessary. NOTE These joints are generally tested after on-site installation. All other types of joint shall be leak-tight when tested in accordance with Clause 7. 6.2 Reaction to fire Uncoated ferrous product material is class A1.2).
Products supplied coated or lined, when the coating contains more than 1,0 % by weight or volume (whichever is the lower) of homogeneously distributed organic material shall be tested and classified according to EN 13501-1 NOTE Seals are encased in steel or cast iron and their reaction to fire is therefore not relevant. 6.3 Dangerous substances Materials used in the production of joints shall not release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum permitted levels specified in a relevant European Standard for the material or permitted in the national regulations of the member state of destination 7 Testing 7.1 General Type testing shall be carried out under the most adverse conditions of tolerance, angularity of tubes and or fittings, and joint movement relevant to the design of joint.

2) In accordance with Commission Decision 96/603/EEC of 4th October 1996 (as amended by Commission Decision 2000/605/EC) the ferrous product material is class A1 and therefore does not require to be tested for reaction to fire.
EN 10311:2005 (E) 15 If a group covers products of different designs and/or manufactured by a different process, the group shall be sub-divided into families representative of the different types and designs. NOTE If, for a manufacturer a group contains only one outside diameter (D) this may be considered as part of the adjacent group provided that it is of identical design and manufactured by the same process. The thinnest wall thickness tubular product shall be tested in each size range. 7.2 Test conditions 7.2.1 Spigot and socket joints Spigot and socket joints shall be tested in the conditions indicated below: a) Joint of maximum annulus (see 7.2.2) aligned, withdrawn to the allowable value declared by the manufacturer, and subject to shear (see 7.2.3). b) Joint of maximum annulus (see 7.2.2) deflected to the allowable value declared by the manufacturer. 7.2.2 Annulus Spigot and socket joints shall be type tested at the extremes of manufacturing tolerance such that the annular gap between the sealing surfaces of the socket and of the spigot is equal to the maximum design value plus 0 %, minus 2 %. It is permissible to machine socket internal surfaces to achieve the required annulus for the type-test even though the resultant diameter can be slightly outside the normal manufacturing tolerance. 7.2.3 Shear All joints shall be type-tested with a resultant shear force across the joints of not less than 50 times D in Newtons, taking into account the weight of the tube or fitting, its contents and the geometry of the test assembly (see Figure 7). 7.3 Type tests 7.3.1 General The type tests to demonstrate compliance with the requirements specified in Clause 6 are given in 7.3.2, 7.3.3, 7.3.4 and 7.3.5. 7.3.2 Leak tightness of joints to positive internal pressure 7.3.2.1 General The test shall be carried out on an assembled joint comprising two tubes and/or fittings with sections each at least 1 m long (see Figure 7).

1940 Mercury convertible owned and restyled by Lawrence Garrison of Boston, Massachusetts.
Restyled in the 1940s, the body on Lawrence's Mercury was channeled over the frame. The fenders were kept in the stock position, so the hood had to be sectioned after the channeling. The body was then lowered additionally by chopping the top. The car was nosed, decked and shaved for door handles, and the gas filler pipe was relocated to inside the trunk. It featured 1940 Ford headlights, and full fadeaway fenders. The front bumper was from a 1947 Chevrolet, while the rear bumper was from a 1947 Buick. The exhaust was routed trough the rear fenders, and the body was painted Ruby Maroon. Inside, it ran a 1939 Mercury dash. A padded top wrapped up the low slung build.
During WWII the car was shipped to San Diego.
In 1967 Dave Christensen of Redlands, California found the car at a used car lot in Redlands. It was stored at a family business called Royal Muffler on Eureka St.
It is believed that the padded top that had been on the car was stolen around that time. Dave bought the car and got it back on the road again.
Dave eventually passed the car on to his grandson Matt Volk of San Luis Obispo, who got the old custom up and running again.
In 2006 Matt sold the Merc to Patrick Orosco of Monterey, California. When Patrick bought the car, it was believed that the build had been started in 1942, at a San Diego body shop. After the war ended, in 1945, it was sent to a Burbank shop and finished to come degree of completion. Dave Christensen, who had owned a number of Vally Custom cars during the 1950s and the 1960s, thought the Merc might be a Valley Custom creation.
When Matt sold the car to Patrick, it still had the patinated burgundy paint. Matt sold it as it sat, when he got it from his grandpa, without a grille and with minimal interior. Patrick modified the car by removing the exhaust that ran through the fenders. He also installed taillights and a grille on the car, before he finished some minor body work in his dad's shop, and gave it a flat black paint job. It was also upholstered in white tuck and roll. In 2008 Patrick told Ken Gross that he had anticipated a full-blown restoration, "to bring it up to show quality." But due to several other projects he decided to advertise it for sale; "I'd like to see it go to someone who has the ability to take it all the way and do the car right," he told Ken. At the time, Orosco considered offers in the $50,000-60,000 range.
In February of 2011 Patrick still owned the car, and he advertised it for sale on eBay.
In 2011 the Merc was sold to Birger Meland of Lier, Norway.

Q: Is it possible to create a 3D model off a 2D PNG image (advanced shapes) using WPF? I am searching for a way to convert some advanced 2d shapes given in PNG format to 3D models, basically "extruding" the image to certain dimension given lets say in millimeters. Search a bit trying to maybe find a solution using meshes but it doesn't seem that I am getting closer. NOT asking for a complete solution, a direction to start heading to would be really nice though, cause i am a bit stack and do not know where/how to start.

New Plays Await, but the Deadline for Humana Festival Reservations Looms
Although Actors Theatre of Louisville's 39th annual Humana Festival of New American Plays has already begun, there's still time -- a little time -- to reserve a package of tickets to the "Industry Weekends" that wrap up the Festival in April. The deadline for registration for the Industry Weekends is March 11, which means it's time to get moving if you want to be there!
There are other new play festivals around the country, but the Humana Festival remains one of the most accessible, prestigious and enjoyable. The Industry Weekends -- the last two weekends of the Festival -- bring together press, producers, directors, agents, artistic directors, literary managers, playwrights, publishers and other theatre professionals, gathered to see a crop of new works by rising and established playwrights.
From the descriptions offered by Actors Theatre (although they always claim there is no overriding theme), this year's slate seems to be about how we embrace life and each other, bridging gaps or falling in between. Actors Theatre rolls out their Humana Festival choices over the weeks between March 2 and April 12, with weekend packages offering the possibility of three plays March 20 to 22, five plays March 27 to 29, six plays April 4 to 5, and all six plays plus a program of 10-minute plays April 10 to 12. Here's what you'll see if you come that last weekend, when the full array is being performed:
by Jen Silverman.
Sharon considers herself a sensible, middle-aged Midwestern woman. But when she finds herself in need of a roommate to pay the bills, she ends up with Robyn, a vegan from the Bronx who is secretive and a smoker. Sharon is persistent in her efforts to get to know Robyn and to show her that sharing and growing can be good things. But it may be Sharon who changes the most.
by Colman Domingo
At Christmas time, the Shealy family -- Dotty and her three grown children -- is in need of a whole lot more than a tree to brighten their inner-city home. In this "wild and moving dark comedy," Dotty Shealy and her kids will find open up issues of elder care and midlife crisis along with their Christmas gifts.
I WILL BE GONE
by Erin Courtney
Ghosts, earthquakes, haunted memories... That's the world seventeen-year-old Penelope discovers after her mother dies, when she movies to a small town in the mountains in California to live with her aunt. Set next to a ghost town, I Will Be Gone looks at "the beauty and awkwardness of living with the knowledge that everything ends."
THE GLORY OF THE WORLD
by Charles Mee
Thomas Merton was a world traveler in his youth, but a Trappist monk in Kentucky by the age of 26. He wrote some 70 books on faith and social justice before he died at 53. In this play, Mee celebrates what would have been Merton's 100th birthday with "a wildly theatrical meditation on happiness, love, the values of solitude and...seeking heaven on earth."
I PROMISED MYSELF TO LIVE FASTER
Text by Gregory S. Moss and Pig Iron Theatre Company
Philadelphia's Pig Iron Theatre Company brings its "unique method of performance research and collaborative creation, plus a signature physical approach to character" to Louisville with this delirious science fiction allegory about intergalactic nuns in search of a Holy Gay Flame.
THAT HIGH LONESOME SOUND
by Jeff Augustin, Diana Grisanti, Cory Hinkle and Cherise Castro Smith
This year's showcase for Actors Theatre's Apprentice Company is all about bluegrass. Or, as Actors Theatre puts it, "In a lively theatrical album of scenes...four writers respond with playfulness and poignancy to the signature sounds, inherited stories, and cultural impact of this very American—and very Kentucky—music tradition."
Note that Charles Mee's The Glory of the World is the one Actors Theatre's Artistic Director Les Water has chosen to direct.
In addition to these six full-length plays, the Humana Festival also features a program of three 10-minute plays during the second Industry Weekend. Those are Rules of Comedy by Patricia Cotter, Joshua Consumed an Unfortunate Pear by Steve Yockey and So Unnatural a Level by Gary Winter. Winter's play won this year's Heideman Award, granted by Actors Theatre to the winner of its national 10-minute play contest. The Heideman Award also comes with a $1000 check to the winning playwright. To read more about the three 10-minute plays chosen to be performed as part of the Humana Festival, click here.

No injuries were reported but 56 people were left homeless following a fire that broke out Christmas morning in a 40-unit condo building at 9954 S. 84th Terrace in Palos Hills.
The American Red Cross, Kiwanis Club, city officials and neighbors are assisting the 56 people left homeless by a Christmas Day fire in a 40-unit building in Palos Hills.
North Palos Fire Protection Chief Paul Mackin said firefighters responded to the two-alarm fire in the Green Tree Condominiums at 9954 S. 84th Terrace reported at 2:50 a.m. Dec. 25.
" It took about an hour and 40 minutes to put out," said Mackin. "We know it began in a downstairs utility room but the cause is still under investigation."
Palos Hills police helped to evacuate the building but few if any people had to be physically carried out, according to Mackin and the police department.
" About eight or 10 units were damaged by the fire, but Palos Hills building inspectors determined the entire building was uninhabitable," said the chief.
According to information provided by Mayor Gerald Bennett's office, all the units in the building sustained smoke damage.
The Red Cross was contacted to assist with the needs of the displaced residents. Due to the extremely cold temperatures, any residents who did not have a place to go were advised to relocate to the Palos Hills Parks and Recreation building at 8455 W. 103rd St., which was used as a warming center. The Red Cross then provided them with hotel rooms and other places to stay for the immediate future.
Most of the building has structurally been saved, but the mechanical infrastructure is destroyed, Bennett said in the statement.
" The city of Palos Hills is extremely grateful to the American Red Cross for placing all families in need at local hotels and providing meals. The city continued working with the Red Cross throughout the weekend. identifying housing needs and other assistance for our residents. The Palos Hills police chief and the city's Building, Public Works, and Resource & Recreation commissioners worked extensively on Monday with building management to safely secure the building, identify necessary building repairs and determine the types of assistance needed by displaced residents," said the mayor.
' The city continues to work with the Red Cross and other social agencies in an attempt to identify alternative rental locations, which is one of the most important needs at this time. The city has also determined there are financial needs for some of these residents," he continued.
Immediately after the fire, several Palos Hills residents began coordinating donation efforts online, with information shared on social media including the Palos Hills Community Facebook page. Donations are still being accepted from Tuesday through Saturday at the New Beginnings Church at 11111 S. Roberts Road.
" After I saw the post about the fire on The Palos Hills Community Facebook page, I decided to help out, along with Shari Schmidt, another resident of Palos Hills. I don't know any of the victims, but I just wanted to help people in my community the same way, I would hope others would help if this happened to me," said Michelle Havlick McDougall. "The response from the community has been extremely supportive. Lots of donations were received and the families are so appreciative. The most needed items now are monetary donations and gift cards. Once families have an opportunity to get back in and go through their belongings at their homes, we might be collecting items like furniture and other household items," she added.
The Hills Kiwanis Club has agreed to coordinate monetary (check form) and gift card donations to those families in need. Anyone interested in donating may drop off checks (made out to the Hills Kiwanis) or gift cards to the Palos Hills Community Center, 8455 W. 103rd St. Because the Community Center will be closed during the holidays, donors are asked to contact Mike Lebarre from the Hills Kiwanis at lebarremike@gmail.com and he will make arrangements to pick up donations.
Bennett said the city appreciates the charity of residents and thanked North Palos Fire Protection District, American Red Cross and the city Departments for their "extraordinary efforts in providing an immediate response and continued support to those directly affected by this unfortunate tragedy."
"The city will continue to work to help those in need," said Bennett.

NCAA WBK
No. 6 Wisconsin holds off Michigan in OT as Kaminsky comes up big
Frank Kaminsky and his Wisconsin Badgers kept their cool after a last-second shot sent them to overtime.
Kaminsky scored eight of his 22 points in the extra session, and No. 6 Wisconsin held off Michigan 69-64 on Saturday night. The Wolverines tied the game on Derrick Walton's 3-pointer with 1.3 seconds left in regulation, but the Badgers went right back to their 7-footer, and Kaminsky put Wisconsin ahead to stay with a three-point play to open the scoring in overtime.
Article continues below ...
"He's one of the best players in the country," Badgers coach Bo Ryan said. "I don't say that very often because I let other people judge. Frank means a lot to this team."
Michigan (12-8, 5-3 Big Ten) is without standout guard Caris LeVert, who is out for the season following foot surgery, but the Wolverines pushed Wisconsin throughout with an inspired effort. The Badgers led by 11 in the second half before Michigan rallied.
Sam Dekker scored 15 points for Wisconsin.
Walton scored 17 points for Michigan, and Zak Irvin added 12.
"The pats on the back about `good game' — I absolutely hate after a loss," Wolverines coach John Beilein said. "At the same time, when we go over what needs to be fixed tomorrow, we'll also be showing what's been fixed."
Wisconsin led by four in the final minute of regulation but helped the Wolverines by missing a couple free throws. Then the Badgers left Walton a bit too open on the left wing for the 3-pointer that tied it at 57.
Ryan said his team will occasionally foul with a three-point lead, but there is concern about accidentally fouling someone in the act of shooting in that situation.
"That quick twitch, that's all you have to do and you can get a shooting foul," he said.
After tying the game in dramatic fashion, Michigan still had to deal with Kaminsky. Even when the Wolverines were in a zone defense, he was a threat near the basket, and Wisconsin took care of the ball down the stretch. The Badgers turned it over six times in the first half but only twice after that.
After Kaminsky's three-point play early in overtime, a 3-pointer by Josh Gasser put Wisconsin (18-2, 6-1) ahead by six.
"Josh hit some big baskets and I was able to make a couple," Kaminsky said. "We had some new guys step up, too, but you always want to have veterans in a situation like that."
Wisconsin scored the final nine points of the first half, taking a 30-23 lead on a 3-pointer by Nigel Hayes in the final seconds.
It was 38-27 before the Wolverines scored 11 straight points to tie it. Michigan conceded a few open shots from the perimeter, and the Badgers had a hard time taking advantage, finishing 7 of 21 from 3-point range.
Ricky Doyle, Mark Donnal and Max Bielfeldt combined for 19 points and 13 rebounds for Michigan, holding their own inside against Kaminsky.
"We had some follow-up baskets," Beilein said. "That's the way it's going to be — collectively, they're going to have to give us as much as they can."
The Wolverines' NCAA tournament hopes took a major hit when they lost LeVert, but the Crisler Center crowd did its best to boost the home team, and when the game was over, there was a fair amount of applause even though Michigan had lost.
FILLING IN
Wisconsin also lost a key player recently when Traevon Jackson injured his foot at Rutgers on Jan. 11. The Badgers have won three in a row since then.
Bronson Koenig made his fourth start of the season Saturday and played 40 minutes. He scored 13 points with a team-high four assists.
Wisconsin: The Badgers have won 14 of their last 16 against Michigan.
Michigan: The Wolverines' bench outscored Wisconsin's 26-0.
Wisconsin: Plays at No. 25 Iowa next Saturday.
Michigan: Hosts Nebraska on Tuesday night.

DEATH OF A WARMONGER: John McCain Was NO Hero, He BEGGED For Multiple Wars Across The World
By Politicalite
US Senator John McCain died from brain cancer this weekend, whilst the Globalist Establishment is sending out their regards, a U.S. website, Geopolitics Alert compiled a list of wars the U.S. Senator called for.
The list is, of course, a history of all the instances McCain has called for US-led intervention around the world. There's clearly a long history, and Geopolitics Alert has compiled the most blatant examples from Europe to Asia. We'll start with the obvious wars first.
Afghanistan and Iraq
Obviously, every US Senator (besides California's Barbara Lee) voted to give President George W. Bush the power to invade Afghanistan following the events of September 11th. However, McCain wasn't happy with just moving to invade Afghanistan. No, he had other targets on his mind as early as the day after the towers fell.
Despite McCain's claim in 2014 that "the Iraq war probably wouldn't have happened" if he had won the 2000 Republican primary and the general election, this assertion seems ridiculous. On September 12th, 2001, McCain appeared on MSNBC presenting an extensive list of countries he felt were providing a "safe harbor" to groups like al Qaeda. This list, of course, included Iraq and several other nations that appear later on this list.
Another country on that 2001 list (of course) was Syria. Now, the Bush regime may have never gotten a chance to continue toppling Mideast countries (thanks to the failure in Iraq and the exposure of that war being sold on lies). But McCain seemingly never lost sight of his hatred for Bashar Al-Assad.
Shortly after the Arab Spring "broke out" in Syria, McCain – and his constant partner in war crimes Sen. Lindsey Graham – quickly found communication channels with the "Syrian opposition." Just a few short months after the US endorsed protests in Syria (even having their ambassador attend), McCain and Graham began calling for arms to start flowing to the Free Syrian Army and other "rebel" groups.
McCain's plans for Syria never quite worked the way he wanted, but he probably should've known they would never yield a positive result. If McCain didn't want to look at Iraq to prove that point, he had another more recent example he could've used: the NATO intervention in Libya.
It was less than a year before McCain wanted to arm Syrian takfiris that he had supported with the bombing and no-fly zones in Libya. McCain even wanted tougher actions against the country. Which has now become an anarchic Wild West that's home to all sorts of horrors from the Islamic State to a new slave trade.
McCain is also a champion of the "war on terror" in other parts of Africa. While McCain hasn't directly supported terrorists in some countries in Africa, he still has called for more US intervention across the continent.
This list includes countries dealing with Islamic insurgencies, such as Mali. McCain has also called for plans like "deploying Special Forces" to rescue girls kidnapped by Boko Haram in Nigeria and intervention in Sudan, where McCain and his wife have invested money for some time.
Another country on the list of hated nations initially put forth by Bush undersecretary of defense Paul Wolfowitz, and also another longtime target of McCain is, of course, Iran.
Although McCain has always said "he prays" there will never be a war with Iran, the man incessantly calls for it and even jokes about bombing the country when he feels the mood is right. The truth of the matter is, McCain's positions towards Iran are so hostile that even flagship neoconservative institutions like the Cato Institute think he is too hawkish.
Bosnia and Kosovo
But McCain isn't satisfied with just backing Salafi jihadists in the traditional Middle East and North African theaters. He's also backed violent radicals across the fringes of Europe. This trend actually started in the mid-1990's when McCain was a vocal supporter of then-president Bill Clinton's war in Bosnia.
Many Muslims traveling to Bosnia joining the mujahideen there have since joined groups like IS in recent years. And IS flags can occasionally be seen in the Sunni areas of Bosnia now. McCain was still backing potential Takfiri movements, recently accusing Russia of interfering in local affairs, and calling for more US intervention in the country.
McCain made similar decisions when he advocated US intervention in Kosovo in the late 90's. In the Kosovo conflict, McCain backed the Kosovo Liberation Army: a genocidal jihadist organization with ties to Al Qaeda under Osama Bin Laden.
Don't be fooled into thinking that McCain only supports jihadists in Eastern Europe! He also backs the overt Nazis acting as death squads for Kiev in the ongoing Ukrainian conflict.
This, of course, started in 2014, but McCain has continued to pledge support for Kiev's crimes in the Donbass region to this day. This is all par for the course in McCain's larger theme of challenging Russia– the country he believes controls the separatists in eastern Ukraine.
The story of McCain's hatred of Russia spans back to the Cold War. We won't get into McCain's fear of communism that's evolved into just general Russophobia. But we will say he didn't have many excuses to focus on making threats towards Moscow for a good 15-20 year stretch.
This changed in 2008, with the war in South Ossetia between Georgia and Russia. During this conflict, McCain was the loudest voice saying the US "should immediately call a meeting of the North Atlantic Council to assess Georgia's security and review measures NATO can take to contribute to stabilizing this very dangerous situation."
This same situation repeated in Ukraine in 2014 but McCain's worst comments came this year. As soon as the US Intelligence Community's accused Russia of interference in the 2016 US elections– and without any evidence– McCain was first to say the event was an "act of war."
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DRPK/North Korea) was also an early target of McCain's making his September 12th wish list. More recently though, the restyled "Trump opponent" McCain was all-in on the new regime's saber rattling. Calling on Trump to strike the nuclear-armed country.
China is kind of in its own class with McCain, who's made strange, vague threats towards the country in the past. Such as "the Arab spring is coming to China," whatever that means. China may be a target on the periphery for McCain, but he does still encourage antagonizing the country to this day. Calling for things like more "freedom of navigation drills" and other naval exercises in the South China Sea.
So, in summation, next time someone asks why you don't care about John McCain's clock running out, show them this article. McCain has encouraged the spread of death worldwide. The day he leaves Congress will be a victory for the human race.
