Report: Russian ground troops arrive in Syria in unprecedented military action
The Kuwaiti report adds that Russian forces have already taken over multiple strategic positions and have forced numerous rebel battalions to retreat.
In an unprecedented move, Russia has sent ground-troops into the Syrian battlefield in support of Bashar Assad as the dictator struggles to maintain his power in the continuous four-year-long civil war, according to a report by Kuwaiti daily al-Rai.
The report, which has not been substantiated by other sources, claims Russian military forces have been providing cover for T-90 tanks along with military air support which have attacked multiple strategic targets held by rebel forces in Idlib and Latakia.

If this is true there are some very clenched sphincters in the Pentagon right now.

Given the shills Obama has installed in top military positions I doubt their sphincters are capable of clenching.
Ha! Nice one.
We’ve been arming ISIS and doing fake bombing runs after dropping them leaflets.
Russia is there to actually defeat our enemy. Good news for U.S. citizens that Muzzies will be dead there rather than murdering us here.
Legit?
For what is worth, this news made it to Reuters and now J Post.
Russian ROEs consist of specifying how fine a sieve their target’s remains have to sift through.
And Iran controls the entire ME. That’s going to be great!
Yea, you’re probably right.

There does not seem to be much info about how many Russian troops and updated equipment like T90s are there. Syria is a large geographic area (much larger than the state of Georgia) but of course good quality troops could make the difference at the right time and place.
Those behind that meat puppet who calls himself President are guilty of high crimes and treason. The US military needs to move against them.
That’s a bit of a stretch...
I agree on both points.
This jpost story credits reuters, and both cite a single kuwaiti source.
So all the reports are depending on one kuwaiti source.
The claim sounds plausible, but it seems too strange for it to be true and only have one kuwaiti source with no alternate confirming?
The Shiites,seem slightly less crazy then the Sunnies.
Wait until the human shields arrive! /s
“The US military needs to move against them.”
The problem is you will probably have to get down to a field commander before you will find anyone who would make a move like that!. The admirals and generals are all Barry’s bitches.
“The claim sounds plausible, but it seems too strange for it to be true and only have one kuwaiti source with no alternate confirming?”
Alternatively, just wait for the banging to begin!
