U.S. Army Colonel Steve Warren calls the Russian air strikes in Syria, "reckless, indiscriminate and irresponsible."

But at least they are doing something..............

We are not going to run into them. Nor will they run into us. These pilots are not dolts. Nor we either of them up without AWACS support.

I am not sure who is trying to sell the drama, but whomever it is thinks we are idiots.

Major incident of some type is brewing, that’s for sure. Just a matter of time. Putin acts with virtual certainty that Obama will not respond in any way to any provocation, no matter how grave. He has Obama’s number. Our country will pay a big price for electing this POS.

I think were beyond pretending that our government is the good guys here.

*************

Roger that. ISIS was born and proliferated on Obama’s watch. It could have been stopped, but it wasn’t. Just sayin...

WE already have, but it will get worse. Things should start turning around when Trump wins November 8, 2016.

You’re exactly right.

Wow, that’s some serious stuff. Somewhere some goats are happy.

Did you see the video of the Russians taking out the Mosque?

Russia already established air-superority from the get go and has maintained that.....besides Erodogan only wants the US to insist on no fly zones... so he can corall the Kurds in the North and further 'control ISIS' as he's tried so to do....He's one very bad dude.

Erdogan of Turkey is the other 'primary party' in this theater of war and few news sources report about his part....he's supporting ISIS fully and wants Assad out so he can take control of Syria...

...Erdogan is one big slime ball!....

That’s a neat “Thumbs up”. Did you copy and paste it?

Sounds like he is trying to climb high by kissing butts

That's SOP if you want your star! Proven ability is secondary if considered at all!

you mean the guy who funded a 1/10 of a billion dollar mosque in Maryland?

he’s a teddy bear.

A teddy bear that loves killing kurds and doesn’t kill ISIS members even when they’re within spitting distance of his tanks.

he also provides safe harbor and helps them push their oil.

A few good men do rise to the top of the swill bucket. Only a few and they can become great.

There are some O-5 people who just can’t be overlooked because they are just so damned good at what they do and how they lead but they will never be upper management material. I think these are some of the most satisfied and accomplished people.

The gutting of the flag ranks will make elevating good people to flag rand very hard unless the flag ranks are gutted of political toadies again and restacked.

Command and control systems are only changed from the top down. The are destroyed the same way.

It is a shame to have become so cynical isn’t it?

I don’t want a war with Russia. I applaud their obvious successes against the jihadis, and pray for their safety and continued good hunting, as long as this Netanyahu - Putin detente or entente holds up.

You would have to ask one of the half dozen keyboard commandos here who crave a war with Russia like normal people want sex, peach cobbler, cold beer or their kids on the honor roll. FWIW I think they fall into two main camps which have become very closely and intimately entwined. The NeoCon acolytes of the Wolfowitz Doctrine, and some not very covert administration sock puppets pretending to be conservatives. I call them ObamaCons. They call me a Putinista, which is quite stupid but most of their comments are.

I wonder how many Freepers would be happy to hear or read that Putin’s forces have killed Americans? I know many of them cannot believe anything that’s not pro-Putinista.
