Syrian Air Force Carries Out 200 Strikes In 36 Hours

BEIRUT, Oct 21 (Reuters) - The Syrian air force carried out more than 200 air strikes around the country in the past 36 hours, a group monitoring the war said on Tuesday, a rapid increase in government raids as U.S.-led forces bomb Islamist insurgents elsewhere.

The intensified strikes by President Bashar al-Assad's forces will add to the fear among his opponents that the government is taking advantage of the U.S. raids on Islamic State to attack other foes, including opposition groups that Washington backs.

Analysts say the increase could be because the Syrian military wants to weaken rebel groups before they get training and equipment promised by the United States.

You not-so-libre got Obama as an alternative to a senile McShame there and still barking at Russia or Syria?

You are a hopeless idealist and not in a position to teach anyone on right choices.

Why is Assad our enemy?

Was the Shah of Iran our enemy?

Why did Mubarack become our enemy?

Why did Molosevich(?) become our enemy?

My guess is that we were beholding to to the Saudis, who blew up NY and DC. Seems like we still are, and there are enough idiots in this country, that still don't know any better.

You certainly make sense.

Assad is our enemy because he is a Russian proxy and the regional support (munitions, training, intel, logistics, etc.) for Iranian-supported Shia terrorist organizations Hamas and Hezbollah. Iran’s terrorist org. just took over Yemen. Like Iran Assad is a destabilizing influence in the region so he’s getting his own medicine now. Syria almost single handedly destroyed Lebanon from 1973 onwards using Hezbollah and Hamas. Even today Assad uses them to exert his influence and control of Lebanon. He’s a pig supporting persecution of Lebanese Christians.

Egypt and Mubarack was Muslim Brotherhood backed by US democrat mobsters, same as Libya. Both countries were peaceful and stable before MB takeover. Yugonam was another US Democrat mob action to support Albanian drug cartels, breakup Serbian economy/autonomy and steal the Trepca mines for euro interests. They even bombed the Yugo appliance factories and replaced them with GE imports.

I don’t think Bin Laden was sponsored by King Fahd but he had ties to some in the royal family. There’s several factions in the royal family. The king is usually from the faction which can best honor the WWII era agreements with the west -i.e. provide the greatest geopolitical stability and support for the country.

What is your argument? All you do is promote Putin and the Putin line of propaganda. I’ve never read anything else you’ve written.

Putin is Andy Griffith to Russia, as Obammy is Barney Fife to America. They both report to a few bankers in London-New Yawk, both referred to as “the City”.

New world order, yeah, it’s cool.

I don’t know about Obama, but what you have said about Putin is a main line of local Communist propaganda in Russia.

Just do some research on Russian-Western finance and trade over the last century.

Western newspapers and Western business records aren’t really “communist propaganda”, lol.

Careful though, the sheeple are not supposed to know about this. You’re supposed to ignore any news articles that make you uncomfortable.

I know as a conservative I was really bumbed out bigtime when I found out Wall Street founded the USSR.

There are many quotes regarding the notion that the Russian leadership considered Kissinger to be negotiating on their behalf as well as America’s. Are they true ? You’ll have to look at a bunch of them and the sources, decide for yourself.

I know the Cambridge Five bumbed me out bigtime as well.

It’s like James Bond in real life is working both for the Russians and the Brits, and his real enemy is the sheeple. That’s tough reality. Much more pleasant to keep telling ourselves that our elites have not completely conned us for centuries.
