realcleanguy :" He is correct, thoughWe are supporting the insurgents the Russians are fighting against.
It appears this administration want a direct confrontation with Russia"

Are we really willing to sacrifice our servicemen in a proxie war ?
Or does the current administration value the sacrifice of our servicemen less than those who gave their lives in Benghazi ?
Or is Obadinga callously more deceptive and disingenuious than we have already given him credit for his Machivellian manipulation ?

I imagine Putin has this information and if it was useful to do this, he would

For example, the supposed use of CW against Syrian civilians in 2013 by “Assad” that obama tried to use and excuse to attack Syria and overthrow Assad

UN investigators found a high likelihood the CW attack came from “rebel FSA” forces, not Assad, and was staged on kidnapped villagers - then photographed lifeless children's bodies to draw the west into the war on their side

Russian scientists analyzed samples and determined the chemical formula was not the same as the weapons in Assad's stocks of CW - which they confiscated

Now - do you think the Russians don't have the chemical fingerprint of that sarin gas CW weapon used in Syria and don't know exactly which labs they came from?

The highest I read since this new war began was about 20 US strikes

I figured the Russian would press eastward once they worked their way through the rebels in the west and around Aleppo

Palymya and Raqqa, 2 ISIS strongholds soon to be wiped out by Russian air, assuming the Syrian and Iranian armies can keep pace. One report also indicated Shia Iraqi militia moved into Syria to assist - they will chase ISIS into Turkey (set up for the Kurds) and Iraq... question is whether Russian will start bombing to support Iraqi ground ops vs ISIL in Iraq. They probably have been invited by an Iraqi govt discovering how much it has been betrayed by the US govt sham war and support of ISIL. At minimum the Russian will be giving the Iraqis intelligence about where to find ISIL assets

Do you see a giant collapse and hear a giant sucking sound in Iraq where the US presence once stood, fought and gained by the blood of thousands of Americans and tens of thousands of Iraqis??

Of course, Hussein sent them over to poke the bear instead of going after his beloved muzzy brothers. ISIS will kill our husbands and sons over there and blame it on Putin giving the usurper his chance to declare WWIII, martial law and gun confiscation. But most importantly, he’ll cancel the election and declare himself der Leader.
