The rebels took over the Christian cities and used them for a shield.

Thank you Russia.

It's just awful that the plane went down on their way to entertain the troops.

Assad is visiting orphans.

Putin is conducting a day of sorrow for the people on the plane and their families and his country.

Obama is golfing.

What's wrong with this picture?

CAIR LA Director Tweets Wish for Twice the Dead in Russian Plane Crash

by LEE STRANAHAN26 Dec 20160

Hussam Ayloush, the executive director of the Los Angeles chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which purports to speak for American Muslims, spent part of Christmas Day tweeting that he had hoped more people had died in the previous night’s Russian plane crash into the Black Sea.

He then backpedaled on his offensive comments.

Ayloush, whose Twitter bio lists him as a “Human rights and civil rights activist. Community organizer. CAIR-LA Exec Director. Son. Husband Father of 5,” tweeted Sunday morning, “I’m sad about the crashed Russian military jet. The TU-154 could have carried up to 180 military personnel instead of just 92!”

I wonder if he's the same CAIRing individual who proudly flashed a big wadd of green American dollars as he drove his BMer out of the CAIR Anaheim parking lot back circa 31 MAR 2007?

Same CAIRing attitude.  

ZBig must be so proud of his easy to use and operate handiwork.

Very sad true comment, but a pro American leader has the sun rising again. May our Lord Jesus be his guiding light.

Never forget: Republicans in Congress have backed Ibama’s anti-Assad crusade. Some, like McCain, say he hasn’t gone far enough

According to our currant administration and media these are the bad guys who are celebrating. Hopefully next month they’ll be the good guys.
