'We'll shoot down US warplanes': Russia warns coalition jets carrying out air strikes over Syria
Mirror UK ^ | Oct 6, 2016

Posted on 10/06/2016 3:33:25 PM PDT by free_life

Russia has ordered the US not to carry out airstrikes on Syrian army positions, warning that sophisticated air defence systems are now up and running. Putin has ordered the deployment of S-300 and S-400 units in order to protect troops on the ground. And Russian army bosses have warned that the weapons' radius may be 'a surprise' to unidentified planes, helicopters and drones in the area, according to Russia Today . Russia says it has deployed the anti-aircraft batteries because members of the Russian Reconciliation Center in Syria are working “ on the ground ” delivering aid.

This story is bullshit. I was told there was a reset with Russia. I saw the picture of the red button and laughing between Lavrov and PIAPS.

Hillary WANT this.

It would put her in a spot to say:

"People who don't want ALL OUT WAR against Russia like TRUMP are anti-American. For me it's 'mom, baseball, apple pie AND HILLARY'..!!!"

Bring it Russkies!

Barry, Kerry and Hillary (and McCain, Graham and the other warmongers in the Senate) are going to protect their ISIS and Al Qaeda friends, no matter what you say.

(Do I really need a sarcasm tag for the first part of that?)
(The second part is not sarcasm at all)

Yeah, but Trump is the warmonger, right?

Admiral Josh Painter, The Hunt for Red October (1990): “This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we’ll be lucky to live through it.”

Wouldn’t the US threaten to attack any warplane that bombed one of our own allies?

Under a Democrat administration we would blame our ally for not making enough concessions and cut off aid to them.

If the order is given to challenge this, our troops should not obey it.

I’d say starting a war with Russia falls into the, “Unlawful Order,” category.

They have seriously Effed up the M.E.

Syria is just a proxy battle ground. The globalist, so-called progressive target is Russia. The goal is to embarrass their nationalism, upset their politics, and hence minimize them and make them a bit-player in the new world order.

I think it would backfire on Obama/Hillary.

Isn't there something 0bama can do to respond to this concern to save us from war?

Perhaps send Putin $160 BILLION CASH?

Hasn't this worked with Iran?

What I don’t understand is that Kerry crowed about his Cease Fire agreement and two days later, Obama was bombing the shit out of Syrian troops, killing some and civilians as well. The State Dept said it was a mistake but you can’t believe a word of what comes out of the Obama WH any more.

Maybe he thinks a wag-dog war with Russia will unite the country long enough for help Hillary continue his Anti-America legacy

No, the people are supposed to have the say over war, but, congress refuses to do its duty.

Lets hope the American pilots, or AAA, if there are any in the area, or the button pushers for the shipborne missiles are smart enough and brave enough to NOT do it.

For sure, 0bama’s Pet Perfumed Princes in the Pentagon are just itching to end civilization for Caliph Barry and his minions.

You better not do that or Barry will send you a sternly worded letter.

I used to think the worst thing that ever happened to the US is the obozo being in the WH. Now I believe the worst thing that could happen is a US Russia war with the obozo in the WH, or any large scale war for that fact. A war with Russia was probably the plan all along and why the obozo was put in charge of our military in the first place. FEMA camps come to mind. The US Military’s top brass better remove that POS before he gets us all killed.

Saw this coming when Hillary & Co made Putin public enemy No 1. Not a smart move.

Putin is going to push this to the limit hoping to force the WH to back down. My fear is Obama will go beyond a “strongly worded letter.”

Will Obama send some poor AF jock into harm’s way for an October Surprise? Wouldn’t surprise me but I’ll claim my tinfoil hat right now. And we’d lose them to an S-300; or at least it’s a real possibility. Then we’d have an October Surprise - in October.
