Six Russian Su-34 Fullback bomber have just arrived in Syria. And this is the route they have likely flown to get there.

The Russian military build up continues as six Su-34 Fullback attack planes arrive in Syria.

Six Sukhoi Su-34 aircraft have eventually arrived at Latakia to join the Russian contingent already there.

Images allegedly shot around the al-Assad International Airport clearly show one Russian Fullback about to land at the airbase in western Syria where 28 Russian aircraft have arrived last week.

One of the photos taken from the ground shows the six aircraft trailing what seems to be an airliner over Idlib: the larger plane is probably a Russian Air Force Tu-154.

The SU-34 is a very capable aircraft.

But, it's a strike fighter/perpetrator.

And, capable air superiority fighter.

It's a good as the Russians have for a multi-role aircraft.

The Russians have created a beautiful family of airframes. Nice curves.

Obama has really screwed the pooch.

Is this a rue to get things in line for them to try to attack Israel?

Not surprising. He definitely wants to unseat us as a world leader, and Obama seems to be willing to help him do it. Anything to mak Putin look good and the US look bad.

“Putin is not going to worry about collateral damage or public opinion. He is going to identify wherever ISIS is holding out and then carpet bomb that place back to the Stone Age.”

He also does not have to deal with Code Pink, ANSWER, or a bunch of other Communists! ;)

I am certain I read that Russians are taking no prisoners, nor are the Chinese.

Do I trust Putin? Yes, to do what is right for Russia. He’s a Russian and proud of it. He loves his country. Compared to our prez, he’s a very good leader. He’s pretty much the opposite of our prez.

So, do I trust him, not really. Do I respect him, yes.
