The command centre for the two countries and allied groups released a joint statement today saying they would ‘respond to future breaches of red lines with force’
RUSSIA and Iran have said they will respond to further American military actions following the air strike in Syria last week.
In a joint statement the command centre for the two countries and allied groups said: “We will respond to any aggression.”
The statement read: “What America waged in an aggression on Syria is a crossing of red lines. From now on we will respond with force to any aggressor or any breach of red lines from whoever it is and America knows our ability to respond well.”
The warning comes on the same day that:
* A Russian politician warned the North Koreans could strike at any time
* A seven-year-old Syrian girl tweeted her support for Trump’s missile strike
* The President blasted claims his 59-missile strike on Syrian airfield missed targets
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani condemned “flagrant US aggression on Syria” following the missile strike on a Syrian air base in response to a suspected chemical attack by the Syrian government on innocent civilians.
The Iranian leader, a key ally of Syria’s dictator Bashar al-Assad, called yesterday for an impartial investigation into the chemical attack that killed at least 70 people.
He warned that the American strikes in response risked escalating extremism in the region, reported Iranian state television.
In a phone call with Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, Rouhani told him: “Allegations that Syria launched the chemical attack were just a pretext to disrupt the Syrian peace process.”
However, the evidence that the Assad regime carried out the horrific chemical attack is nearly overwhelming.

Obama’s red lines ? LOL
They better hope there aren’t any terror attacks on US soil. At least if I were DJT.. I’d hold them responsible and hit ‘em ‘just cuz’, no matter who did it.

I don’t think they qualify as red lines if they aren’t clearly delineated.

Every time I see those two together, I can’t help but remember that Ezekiel 38 is coming some day. I believe it’s before the Tribulation; perhaps just before. But can’t prove it, so it’s JMHO. Sorry for this long post but some lurkers may not have a Bible. They should get one. Sooner, rather than later. There’s a reason Saudi Arabia (and others) ban Bibles. Gee, wonder why.....

Ezekiel 38 King James Version (KJV)
1 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
10 Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord God; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 Thus saith the Lord God; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord God, that my fury shall come up in my face.
19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord God: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
against FURTHER strikes
Weaksauce.
Gosh darn it, if you hit me again i am really really gong to do something.....
sure....
Russia saving face...
The US should embrace Russia as a final outpost of civilization. They have dealt with every form of cruelty from Stalinism to Caliphate invasion, to Extreme Nationalism (Nazis), to insane nationalism (again Stalin), and are still able to show the world a true CIVILIZED society. Just see Russian Ballet...
Putin takes no prisoners in the war against muslim murder and neither should we.
I, personally, don’t think there is as much tension between the US and Russia as the MSM would want you to believe...No one really knows outside of President Trump’s inner circle and Putin’s inner circle....
Quagmire.
“Obama’s red lines ? LOL”
Has to be. I do not recall Trump talking about lines in the sand.
I don’t hold be much faith in a 7 year old girl’s tweet supporting Trump. No more than I do a 7 year old girl being interviewed by the left press.
Isn't that cute. Putin and Iran doing stuff TOGETHER.
That's our so-called ally in the battle against terrorism.
Sure, Putin and the "civilized" Iran.
Maybe Trump should stop supporting islamofascists. Who does he think he is? Obama?
Russia would reduce Iran to dust in a nanosecond if Iran began to go afield from the plan. I was in graduate school with many Iranians, they were very ‘here and now’ and not ideological.
Of course, this was Electrical Engineering.

Russia and Iran pledge to hit back against further Syria strikes,
Dear Pres. Trump, “We’ll Huff and we’ll Puff, and we’ll Bloooooooow your house down”.
Pres. Trump...”Eff You, assholes”.
Oh come on. Stop the BS. You were given a two hour warning and decided not to defend against the attack. Why ? My guess is the proof was indisputable.
