Military airport near Damascus bombed. Suspected holding ammunition depots for Hezbollah. Developing, see the feed. Syrian media attributing to Israel. In before Drudge.
Redwulf couldn’t even answer that about why Russia hadn’t attacked ISIS after the so-called downing of the Russian jet over the Sinai. RW made a real big deal about bombing Turkmen, “lookie what Putin did”.
I don’t know if RW is American, it’s pretty clear Assad and Iran have killed Americans and one can’t separate Russia from Assad and Iran.
Of course, during the war, Jihadists operated from Syria and had camps in Syria; That was fine with Assad then.
Of course, Syria also gave safe haven to Nazi Alois Brunner who lived there until 2001 when he passed on.
Russia recently had the bath oil drinking story, life in Russia is not good for ordinary citizen. One could go on.
Also, Reddie’s man Putin is pro-Muslim, not us. It’s Putin who is bed with the mad mullahs in Iran and by obvious extension Hezbollah and Hamas. It’s Putin who is bed with Assad as socialist Alawite monarchist. Putin is also in bed with a violent Muslim crank named Ramzan Kadyrov, who kills for Putin whenever someone disses Putty. Yet, this Putin apologist has the gall to suggest that anyone not standing with his man Putin is a in favor of Muslims and not a Christian. It’s tough being a pro-Putin and that explains his irrational tirades against Americans, which I’m not sure he is.
It's very biblical...All thru out their history Israel rebelled against God...And they will right up to the Tribulation...
“Also, Reddie’s man Putin is pro-Muslim, not us.”
Well, in a sense, I suppose that’s somewhat accurate in regard to Putin, but quite inaccurate in regards to the U.S. Government under Obama.
Syria is involved in a bloody civil war where, of course, both sides are Muslim.
Putin choose to support the Shiite/Alawite Assad and his Government against the Wahhabi/Salafist, Sunni rebels.
U.S. policy has been to support the Sunni “rebels” with the goal of ousting Assad.
By the way, Assad protects Christians. “Our” rebels don’t.
America’s support for Muslims who murder Christians has been an ongoing problem since Bill Clinton supported then arming of the Muslims of Yugoslavia against the Christians of Yugoslavia(The press ignoring Muslim atrocities while playing up Christian retaliation had a large part in this) . The real kicker was the mass slaughter of Christians in Iraq that the supposedly Christian Neo-Con president GWB ignored and enabled.
Neo-cons like elhombrelibre argue that they and only they have pure intentions while they ignore the slaughter of Christians through their policies. They then question the intentions of guys like Putin who consistently defend Christians while ignoring their track records. I submit to all of you that results, not intentions matter more and this is a biblical concept: Matthew 7:16 - “Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?”
Putin has protected Christians left and right whenever possible. Our own government and the neo-cons go out of their way to protect Muslims and enable the murder of Christians at every turn. Ye shall known them by their fruits, indeed.
All this is about to change with Trump which is one of the many reasons the Neo-cons hate him so much and are working so hard to destroy Trump and to prevent a American/Russian alliance against ISIS.

Putin apologists, no doubt, will be along to help everyone understand why Putin's interest trump America's. In time, when Putin's interests come before Trump's interests, we'll see whether the Putinistas stick with Putin or they put America first.
It took the Kremlin long enough to tell you how to reply. I supposed you long for the days of Milosevic. He too was an unprincipled former communist, like your main man Putin, who switched it up and became a pseudo nationalist to fool and dupe people and, for important, to stay in power. Ask your advisors what to say now.
It’s no suprise you hate Americans who merely disagree with you. Your loyalty is to Putin, not to the USA or its values. Sad. What type of Christian does that make you?
There is also a tactical advantage in saying your weapons are crappy when really they work exceedingly well. The f35’s may work very well even better than anything else that’s out there but as they may be having trouble reaching their theoretical capabilities, I suppose one may say they are crappy. Their new stealthy design for example may be giving them an edge even if they don’t dare try to push them in terms of speed or maneuverability just yet or if they are still trying to tweak the computer packages in them.
“And you seem to gloss over Putin’s affinity with the mad mullahs in Iran. Why do you do that? And what about Putin’s recent advocacy of the Taliban?”
Putin’s just playing geopolitics. By playing the Iran card he offsets the U.S.-Saudi alliance (a very sick alliance by the way). Iran’s leadership is nasty but they don’t slaughter their Christian minorities - unlike our Jihadi rebels. Putin’s advocacy of the Taliban? The same Taliban that the the U.S. has been bribing with pallet loads of new 100 dollar bills? Perhaps Putin wants to a piece of the Afghani Opium monopoly the U.S. controls Who really knows?
“Our own government and the neo-cons go out of their way to protect Muslims and enable the murder of Christians at every turn.”
That certainly does appear to be the result of our Mid-East meddling. Quite consistent. Look at how Obammy is flooding America with Islamic refugees but very few Christians.
“All this is about to change with Trump which is one of the many reasons the Neo-cons hate him so much and are working so hard to destroy Trump and to prevent a American/Russian alliance against ISIS.”
I certainly hope so. Neo-cons showed their true colors when they jumped into Hillary’s camp. After all, the “Masters of the Universe” and “Vulcans” love war.
“”Every ten years or so, the United States needs to pick up some small crappy little country and throw it against the wall, just to show the world we mean business.,” Neocon Michael Ledeen
Israel has the right to defend itself. It can expect no help from the USA as long a bammy is in office.
>I supposed you long for the days of Milosevic. He too was an unprincipled former communist,
I know almost nothing about Milosevic beyond what was reported in the western press at the time. But to call him unprincipled when his main claim to fame is resisted Bill Clinton’s effort to ethnic cleanse Christians out of Kosovo? That’s absurd.
What principles do you follow elhombrelibre? That Muslims come first and Christians be damned? That people who lived in Kosovo for a 1,000 years have to leave because Bill Clinton gave the country to a Muslim terrorist group? Kosovo is a Muslim hellhole today and yet you’re still railing against Serbia while excusing Bill Clinton’s Christian murdering Muslims and attacking the man who tried to stop Bill’s rampage.
Neo-cons disgust me.
Anyone who doesn’t support Putin disgusts you. You’re a fraud. You started out with bogus assertions about Russia’s relationship with Isreal. Then, you swung and deflected to the risible idea that to oppose Putin and Assad is to support harming Christians. Are you that dumb?
>It’s no suprise you hate Americans who merely disagree with you. Your loyalty is to Putin, not to the USA or its values. Sad. What type of Christian does that make you?
I pity fools like you. You’ve been so twisted by endless neo-con ideology that you can’t stop and examine if your ideas didn’t get a whole lot of innocent people murdered. You’re as bad as the socialists who keep on destroying countries but never taking responsibility for their bad ideas and continue to insist on trying the same failed policies over and over again.
Putting America ahead of your beloved Putin’s country won’t destroy America.

Actually, in Ukraine, that is percentage-wise, if we can say that, a more Christian country than Ukraine, one could say Russia is attacking a Christian country.
But the Baltics, Russia and Ukraine, have a large number of unbelievers.
But at the same time, Russia has a rather large Muslim population, since Russia is a huge nation, it translates to something like better than 20 million, 22 or so.
