Wake up Russia and America

Islamic State combatants were no doubt jumping with joy following botched airstrikes against them by American, Australian and British warplanes in Syria that accidentally killed at least 60 Syrian soldiers and wounded more than 100.

The 15-member United Nations (UN) Security Council met on 17 September after Russia demanded an emergency session to discuss the American-led airstrike fiasco.

The U.S. ambassador to the UN - Samantha Power - chastised Russia for the move:

We don’t belong in Syria. It’s a civil war. Russia has been their ally for 50 years.

The American forces are always on the side that wants to destroy Bashir Al-Assad.

Lol, yeah, that was an accident bombing and killing dozens of Syrian soldiers.

We'd hear story after story of U.S. aircraft returning with full bomb racks after making runs going after ISIS. There were all kinds of precautions to avoid collateral damage. Prior to the ISIS fuel trucks being struck, leaflets were dropped warning ISIS consiglieres of impending strikes. ISIS was able to stage victory parades in cities without one bomb being dropped. Again, we heard about targeting and avoiding collateral damage. Yet, surprise, under the cover of a seize fire, U.S., British, and Aussie jets somehow were able to fully establish the target was ISIS and proceeded to empty the bombs racks and unleash everything they had on Syrian government forces. Oh, yeah, by accident.

F Assad and F ISIS.

I read about some activity by the Russian Strategic Rocket Forces. My guess is they are gaming out such a situation if Hillary gets in the White House. Hillary has talked over and over about shooting down Russian jets. The utterances of mad person. Russia has the ability to reciprocate and unleash some in-theater electronic weapons the U.S. Is probably not fully-equipped to handle. But every single American better understand one thing about going to war against Russia. For Russia, the outcome can never be worse than a draw, ultimately.

F Assad?? Assad is secular leader trying to protect his country and people from the nightmare of a dysfunctional Salafist sh*thole that slaughters Christians and others groups not simpatico with Islamism. In Assad's Syria women walk around Damascus without their heads covered and can wear jeans and go to college. By not supporting Assad you are, by default, not vexed and therefore condone their awful brutal fate.

Not me. I say support Assad 1000%.

“Assad is secular leader trying to protect his country”

Please tell the secular dear leader to stop aligning himself with the Islamic theocrats from Tehran and providing safe haven for Hezbollah terrorists. Please do that.

I defer to Bob Baer on this. Baer is a Farsi-speaking former CIA officer in the Middle East. As Baer points out, Iran, Hezbollah, and Shiite Muslms have not been involved in international terrorism for decades. I know this doesn’t fit the neocon narrative. I understand your motivation, but please don’t conflate America’s interests with Israel’s interest, specifically, geo-strategic dominance of its neighborhood. The threat to Western CHRISTIAN civilization is coming from that 90% of Islam, namely, Sunni Islam: Salafism, Wahabbism, ISIS, Al Qaeda. I’m an American Christian, Ergo, I support Assad 1000%.

I think I know where you are going with this. Aside from your innuendos and self perceived stance as the guard of the Western Christian Civilization, your views align with Obola's policies vis a vis Iran rather than any of those 17 Republicans that were in the primary. And certainly not with Trump who has repeatedly asked for Iran to be punished.

Your policies match closely to the old coot Ron Paul, but he is pimping survival seeds now that his (and his politically stillborn son's) political career is over. Don't you ever forget that, or else you are living under delusion when President Trump starts dismantling Iran starting 2017. And your whining will certainly multiply by the factor of 10. Guaranteed.
