"U.S. working to 'deconflict' military operations in Syria"
Fox News Channel/WH Press Briefing ^ | 9/30/15 | Earnest

Posted on 09/30/2015 10:13:13 AM PDT by pabianice

Josh Earnest on TV now at press briefing. He was asked what the US' response to Russia will be regarding Russia's demand that US aircraft stop flying in Syria. Ernest replied that the US is working to "deconflict" the situation with Russia.

Meanwhile, " Secretary of State John Kerry rebuffs Russia’s demand that U.S. warplanes leave Syrian airspace to make way for their own airstrikes — but stops short of raising the ante against Russian President Vladimir Putin, instead calling on him to join coalition talks on how to defeat ISIS."

What do you suppose will happen next?

A strongly worded letter, with sparse usage of ‘CAPS’. The CAPS would convey that obama is very series and ‘he means business’...!

Not sure deconflict is the right word...

Deconflicted, or deconflicting, or deconflict is used in military jargon fpr the following purposes.
-- When two friendly organizations are working the same Area, a conflict arises as these organizations near each other, or share an area of responsibility v. the enemy.

Josh Earnest’s parents tell people that their son is a towel boy at a Mexican brothel.

The Russians don’t seem that they are much interested in “Deconflicting”.

They stated today that the RUSSIANS are the only LEGAL foreign power operating in Syria, as they are there at the request of the Syrian Government.

Putin will continue to ignore Obama. Our forces will hit a confrontation at some point, and Obama will back down - then start something somewhere else to save face.

Why do we have planes there? We have no interest in Syria. We don't even have diplomatic ties.

And Obama should remember that it was Russia...not him....that got Assad to give up his chemical weapons.

My bet....Obama is going to try like hell to assassinate Assad...and blame it on Russia.

This isn’t good for the pro ISIS feral government, but it’s great for actual Americans.

I never thought I would see an american president bow to pressure so quickly and easily from other countries.

maybe Carter.

U.S. presence will be told to run like scared rabbits while Putin steps up to the plate to do the job that a REAL American president would have finished a long time ago. In fact, it never would have happened with a continued presence in Iraq.

What a horrid situation.

Absolutely correct. We don’t even have diplomatic ties with Syria.

To show he's really series he will underline it all in RED!

Cannot say I blame them. I would not want people to know what he actually is.
