The Syrian government said on Monday four warplanes from the U.S.-led coalition had targeted a Syrian army camp in Deir Ezzor province on Sunday, killing three soldiers and wounding 13 more, calling the incident an act of aggression.
The jets fired nine missiles at the camp on Sunday evening, Syria's foreign ministry said in a statement flashed on state television.
It is the first publicly declared incident of its type since the United States and allied countries began bombing Islamic State in Syria more than a year ago.

I guess that was one of the 25% of the time when Obama gives clearance to strike.
********************************************************************************
But of course...Barack Hussein Obama ALWAYS gives clearance if the targets are PEOPLE FIGHTING ISIS!
OTrauma still gets no gun control, so suck it up, Barky.
There is not enough money in our treasury for the immoral mission of killing all Muslims, and therefore Obama has violated the fundamental rule of strategy, don't divide your forces. Clearly the objective is not Muslim inspired terrorism, but Assad, to whom terrorists are even a more lethal enemy than they are at present to us.
A very valid question. If I were running the show, YPG, Peshmerga, Assyrians, and Yazidis would be Blue Force.
Once you make it all-inclusive it’s practically a no-brainer.
That is incorrect. From the viewpoint of our Saudi masters. They still expect us to play a part in disposing Assad.
Obama probably got a call from the Saudi ambassador commending him. Have you read about the millions of dollars of bling given the Obamas by the Saudis?
Can you say payoff? Of course you can.
Look for a Russian imposed No Fly Zone to be announced today. Those working under Russian leadership are fine, all others will be shot down, no further warning.
Your move, Zero
In general, systematic bombing of a country’s territory, without government permission, could be considered an act of war. In particular, killing government soldiers in one of those bombings is certainly an act of war.
I would love to see the Syrians bring this up in front of the UN. “The United States of America has suddenly and deliberately attacked the land forces of the legitimate government of Syria. The United States was at peace with Syria and, at the solicitation of Syria, was still in conversation with its government looking toward the maintenance of peace in the region.” If the terrorist thug ruling our country is going to try to pick which terrorist thugs rule another country, he should pay a personal price in the court of public opinion for that interference. [The UN can’t and won’t do anything real, but I love seeing Barry embarrassed.]
AFP is FUBAR
9 missiles to kill 3 people? Seriously?
“9 missiles to kill 3 people? Seriously?”
That confirms it was a US airstrike. Under the latest 0bama ROE, US air forces have a developed a CHS policy. As in Can’t Hit “Stuff”.
Previous example was bombing for 18 months without hitting one of the many tanker truck convoys with hundreds of trucks in each.
How do we know Assad is killing the wrong people? Who says he is not killing terrorists?
Pray America wakes
5.56mm
So who do we support? Why does Pres. Ovomit constantly say, “Assad must go”? This is another empty US administration blanket statement.
“Maaaaaaaaawwwwwm! Obama’s spiking the football agaaaaaaaain.”
#HowMuchDidThisCostUs
CONGRESS?
OBAMA THE MAGNIFICENT DOESN’T NEED NO STINKIN CONGRESS.
You must be thinking of the old, dead America. This is the NEW, Fundamentally-transformed Amerika, where nothing is illegal if done-while-Democrat, and laws only apply to Republicans and Christians.
He is the anointed one, THE ONE, THE WON...
Only REPUBLICANS are bound by silly things like laws in the new, fundamentally-transformed Amerika!!
Just ask anyone at CNN/ABC/NBC/CBS/MSNBC/NPR/E!/USAToday/Bloomberg/WashPost/NYTiâmes about this.
soetoro arms and supports isis. The boy king is about to get us in a shooting war with Russia, China, Iran and Syria.
What did we get for our dollars:
1. Unknown number of Jets: $$$$$$$$$$$
2. Nine missiles fired likely 8 of which hit nothing $$$$$$$$
Three dead islamists and maybe thirteen wounded.
This is not serious those killed and wounded was probably an accident, (some airmen will be prosecuted for violating rules of engagement) talk to me when one sortie kills 3,000 then 30,000, then 300,000 on and on like that bombing the entire islamic middle east, then send every islamist in the civilized world back to clean up the pig sty and to remember never mess with the U.S.
Shhh the Left never acknowledges Obama’s wars or war crimes.
