U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter says the Russian airstrikes in Syria appear to have targeted areas that do not include Islamic State fighters.
Carter made the comment at a Pentagon news conference, where he offered few details about the strikes but said they point out a contradiction in Russia's approach. He said the Russians should not be supporting Syrian President Bashar Assad's government, and their military moves are “doomed to fail.”
Carter also expressed disappointment that the Russians did not use formal channels to provide the U.S. with advance notice of its airstrikes.
That tells you all you need to know.
Discount anything coming from the Pentagon (Carter) or Obamas “talkers”....the idea is to create a platform that will blame Russia for anything that goes wrong in this joint effort.
The areas struck in ‘Homs’ are mostly controlled by Al-Qaeda affiliate ‘Al-Nusra Front’,.... while those hit in Latakia are mostly controlled by a coalition known as the ‘Army of Conquest’, ..which includes Al-Nusra..... So the nonsense that Russia isnt hitting terroists is false...theyre all terrorists..names mean crap at this point.
Russia will of course ramp up Assad as Russia wants Assad in power until the nation transitions to a new election to prevent an ISIS take over........the US says no deal they want Assad out of the equation.
Thats been the sticking point from the get go....Russias basically said enoughs enough .....time for action to settle the matter.
Rastan targeted strikes....
