The leader of al-Qaeda linked group al-Nusra Front is encouraging jihadists in the Caucasus to attack Russia. His call follows similar condemnation of Russia from rival jihadi group the Islamic State (ISIS) and a number of Saudi clerics.
“If the Russian army kills the people of Syria, then kill their people. And if they kill our soldiers, then kill their soldiers. An eye for an eye,” declared Abu Mohamed al-Jolani.
Russia began airstrikes on September 30. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told the UN Security Council the government received a request from Assad to strike the rebels. Russia has stated they are only targeting the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL), but insiders claim the airstrikes have hit any faction considered an enemy of Assad.
Jolani said these attacks are “a new Christian crusade from the east that was doomed to fail.”
“The war in Syria will make the Russians forget the horrors that they found in Afghanistan,” continued Jolani. “They will be shattered, with God’s permission, on Syria’s doorstep.”
He promised to pay “three million euros ($3.4 million) for anyone who can kill Bashar al-Assad and end his story.” He would also compensate anyone who killed a member of Assad’s family.
“How long must Muslims delay their rights and shed their blood for a man who loves power?” he asked.
Jolani then placed a $2.2 million bounty on Hassan Nasrallah, the head of Hezbollah, and his family.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met with Saudi Arabia Defense Minister Mohammed bin Salman on Sunday. Salman predicted that Russia’s airstrikes “would escalate the war and inspire militants from around the world to go there to fight.” A number of Saudi clerics have encouraged Sunni jihadists to fight against Russia, in a call similar to that of Al Qaeda.

Go for it, ragheads.
You’ll find out what it’s like to oppose a nation who couldn’t care less about political correctness.
The Saudis are terrified. They know if the Russian/Syrian/Kurdish/Iranian coalition destroys the Saudi founded and financed barbaric Sunni jihadists in Syria and Iraq, the House of Saud will fall. History will show that it was the Russians who ultimately avenged the 9/11 assault on Western culture.
Looks like Mecca is going to be a green glass parking lot sooner rather than later.
The first thought I had was let’s hope nobody runs out of bullets. Not very charitable but the whole situation is a mess.
Pop some popcorn!
I wanna see what happens to these bastards when they run into an enemy that doesn’t have their hands tied by restrictive Rules of Engagement and considers ‘collateral damage’ as bonus points.
Russia must be hitting them hard and hurting them bad.
Remember, neocons — the Russians are the enemy.
As the Trinity tests produced “Trinitite”, we may anticipate “Meccatite” being a new rock for collectors to add to their rock collections.
One may also reasonably anticipate being able to acquire specimens of “Medinite”.
Let’s not forget the Old Testament did predicted “Damascite”.
Russia has the right enemies.
Speaking of lopcorn. Doesnt China support Russia ?
Doesn’t matter. China doesn’t have any clients in the region and cannot really project power in the ME.
