Well, that's the world's worst-kept secret.

Anyone following Social Media has known that for days.

It's good to see CNN finally catching up. The Russians aren't trying to hide anything, they WANT the bad guys to know they are coming.

Jammer trucks, jamming pods, artillery, rockets, etc.

There was a pic posted on Twitter last night showing a bunch of newly arrived tanks, AFV's, and support trucks painted with Russian colors that had just arrived at the dock in Latakia yesterday.

[planning to attack anti-regime forces]

That will get Maverick McCain all fired up this weekend calling for shooting down Russian aircraft and who knows what else.

Know what? This is embarrassing.

We have/had the finest military ever seen in the world and we go to these places and suffer huge casualty losses and take many, many months to do relatively modest jobs all because the idiot politicians handcuff our guys with overwhelming ROE.

I HATE that! Any of their kids in the military? If so they wouldn’t put these ROE sandbags on the backs of our warriors.

Meanwhile, Russia just walks in and kicks it into gear without any concern.

Very upsetting.

I know you are aware of this, however, many who read this thread may not be...The “SMERCH” is a 300MM rocket. A very nasty piece of rocketry. Accurate. Devastating. If used with any frequency, one will be able to immediately observe an ever decreasing skyline.

The interesting part is how the Russians fight compared to Americans. Don’t expect to see much whining in the press about how *insensitive* the Russians are to the “cultural values” of Muslims. First because the Russians don’t care at all about that, and second, because they shut down the media and communications first.

There will be zero effort to “win hearts and minds”, because those on the Russian side will have no real say in how the Russians do things; and those on the other side are not going to be given the opportunity to argue.

Yep, from our point of view, it will be ‘popcorn time’, while that weakling Obama wrings his hands and weeps at the loss of his beloved Muslims.

This will put a stick in the spokes of Obama’s plan to flood the west with young muslim male “refugees”.

And where is Bamhbi watching this from?

The Situation War Room? Where he was photo-shopped in to show him observing UBL getting whacked by the SEALS.

Will the Nobel Peace Prize winner get us into a war with Russia, China and Iran giving him a "reason" to try to suspend the 2016 election?

Just a thought...

So, this is what it looks like when your government has a Grand Strategy.

If it’s on the TV now, even Odumbo will know about it.
