The city of Deir Ezzor (Deir ez-Zur) in east-Syria is on the verge of falling into the hands of the Takfiris of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). More than 100,000 civilian inhabitants of Deir Ezzor and thousands of soldiers defending them are in immediate danger of being murdered by the savage ISIS forces. The current situation is a direct consequence of U.S. military action against the SAA and non-action against ISIS.
Deir Ezzor is besieged by ISIS since September 2015. But the city was well defended by its garrison of Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and all further attacks by ISIS were repelled. Supply to the city was hauled in by air through the Deir Ezzor airport and through air drops by the Syrian and Russian airforces. Relief by ground forces and ground supplies are not possible as Deir Ezzor is more than 100 km away from the nearest SAA positions west of Palmyra and as the desert in between is under the control of ISIS.
Four days ago a new attack by ISIS on Deir Ezzor was launched and has since continued. ISIS reinforcements and resupplies had come over months despite air interdiction from the Russian and Syrian airforces. Yesterday ISIS managed to cut off the airport, where the local SAA command and its main supplies are hosted, from the city proper. It is now attacking in full force from all sides. Bad weather makes air support from the outside sporadic and difficult. Unless some unforeseen happens it is only a question of time until the airport and the city fall to ISIS.
The U.S. has condoned and/or even actively supported the imminent ISIS taking of Deir Ezzor by (at least) three measures:
a massive U.S. air attack on SAA forces in September 2016 enabled ISIS to take a controlling position and to cut off SAA resupplies a U.S. attack against a power station in January disabled the last electricity supplies to the city U.S. non-intervention enabled ISIS reinforcements from Mosul and west Iraq to Deir Ezzor in east-Syria
On September 16 2016 an hour long U.S. led air attack on SAA positions on the Tharda hills to the south of the airport killed over 100 SAA soldiers, destroyed a big SAA supply dump and several SAA tanks and artillery pieces. Immediately after the U.S. attack ISIS took the hills and has since held them. The positions allow for fire control over the airport of Deir Ezzor.

Russia burning Bibles, criticized by Orthodox Church

Russia has further sent Muslim Chechen savages into the Christian nation of Ukraine, way more Christian than Russia.
>>Why is Russia meeting the Taliban?
Because Jimmuh the Killer Wabbit Carter, Zbigniew Brzezinski, their fellow NWO Kleptocrats deliberately stirred up a nest of Tali-snakes in the graveyard of empires - with the express intent of enticing the Soviets to invade back circa 1979
1979 - the year the Islamic Revolution, instigated and funded ala Operation Cyclone, came to fruition in Afghanistan, and Tehran.
1979 - 18 years after folks ignored Ike Eisenhower's warnings about that kind of manure.
How many more American lives should be expended to clean up the ensuing prophetable Cluster Frack? ZERO.
The rest of your bullet items? It’s just bidness.
We’ll see how that works when the USA has a POTUS who can actually do bidness and negotiate with America’s best interests in mind instead of a Golfer In Chief who gets laughed at while their uncontrolled Secretary of State is looting everything she can get her thieving Global Initiative fingers into.
Others - Not So Much.
As Trey Gowdy noted in his speech to Liberty University - we have to build relationships with those we want to change. Putin says we have common interests. Let's show leadership, build trust, and take him at his word.
Why not declare a joint partnership to put some more footprints on the Moon; taking the other branch of the trail where the NWO Kleptocrats misled the Republic into the OPEC swampland?
