Don't know how true this? Nevertheless, it is worth the footnote.

IF this is true..., then it's very bad news for ISIS. Which would make sense why they are leaving and blending with the Syrian refugees.

The biggest concern is U.S. and Russian forces shooting at each other.

How many ISIS wolves in Syrian refugee clothing will the US end up with?

The Russians appear to play a bit differently with ISIS than Zerobama does ......

No chance. They couldn’t support them.

The U.S. Hasn’t produced a bomber in 22 years. The big bomber fleets of Cold War years are long gone. Today, the Air Force only has about 160 heavy bombers left to cover the whole world — 76 B-52 Stratofortresses, 63 B-1 Lancers, and 20 B-2 Spirits. On any given day many of them are not ready for combat; they are having on-board equipment replaced, or conducting training missions, or awaiting maintenance. So the actual number of heavy bombers ready to go right now in a crisis is only about a hundred.

Meanwhile, the Russkies are sending 170 bombers to Syria alone.

Wow, this is huge if true!

The West has been determined to see the fall of Syria. Looks like Russia is more determined to see it does not.

I’ll believe it when I see it. I hate to see the Russians gain such a sure foothold in the ME...they’re NEVER going to leave...but I would dearly relish seeing ISIS obliterated.

After viewing many Youtube vids of tanks and armored vehicles getting blown up, I’d posit that Syria does not have many tank drivers left.

Seems that their type of urban warfare does not favor tanks when the enemy can fire RPGs downward from multistory buildings.

Not an expert, but that’s the impression I got.

The biggest concern is U.S. and Russian forces shooting at each other.

They will be shooting in different directions, that's for sure.

Obama doesn't want to destroy ISIS, he just wants people to think that's his goal.

After all, it was the Obama administration and American money that created and equipped ISIS.

The big guy has arrived. Can he give us a hand in Iraq as well?

This makes me smile. I remember Russia’s last forey into Afganistan. Didn’t do much better than we did. Instead of Charley Wilson’s war wonder who will own it this time....

This was exactly what BushI and BushII tried to avoid when they scaled back their plans in the Middle East.
They were worried Russia was going to pull troops into Syria.

Russia has been backing Syria since the 60’s

Putin is going to crush ISIS, and will reap the benefits.

All of our former allies in the region will look to him for protection. And I have no doubt he will succeed. He’ll have no issues wrapping each captured jihadi in bacon before shooting them.

Yep. ISIS has scattered to the western world. Prolly none left in Syria.

So, how’s that “Arab Spring” thing working out for us?

I call BS on the number. Maybe that is how many Iran will send under Russian command?

There is no downside for Russia in destroying ISIS. None.

Iran likes them more. The troops get a warm-up game for Ukraine and the Baltics. And a lot of terrorists who might want to do another Beslan get dead.

It all makes perfect sense.

Ezekiel 38: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords.

Militarily ISIS is an absolute joke! A bunch of spoiled pampered little Euro-Arabs and Saudi Oil Babies running around abusing women and children and murdering unarmed civilians. Their “victories” in Iraq were hand overs from Sunnis.

The Fijian Coastguard would wipe the floor with those morons in an actual fight. There is NO CHANCE they will ever stand and fight Russian Marines. They would get smoked in heartbeat.

Uh oh. The NWO will not like this one little bit. Their plan to have ISIS take over the Middle East in order to justify WW3 is looking a little sick.

Time for a nice, big false flag, boys!
