Qatar, a major supporter of rebels in Syria’s civil war, suggested it could intervene militarily following Russia’s intervention in support of President Bashar al-Assad but said it still preferred a political solution to the crisis.
The comments by Qatar’s foreign minister, made in a CNN interview on Wednesday, drew a swift reply from Assad’s government with a senior official warning that Damascus would respond harshly to such “direct aggression”.
Gulf Arab backers of Syrian rebels such as Qatar have been unsettled by Russia’s three-week-old air strike campaign that has allowed Assad’s forces to wrest back some territory to help secure his strongholds in western Syria.

Thanks for the good news. Sounds like Isis isn’t going to be a problem for decades as Obamaramadon’s perfumed princes/princess/princessits in the pentagon have been telling us.
““This means to me that Russia is slaughtering Qatar’s ISIS project.”
Well, if they want to save ISIS, they had better hurry.
Lots of Twitter chatter about a BIG Syrian/Russian air raid on Aleppo late this afternoon local time, that really hurt them.
Supposedly, they are abandoning Aleppo “by the hundreds”, and heading north toward Turkey, or west toward Raqqa.
Who knows if it is all true, or even partly, but the fact remains that ISIS is hurt.”
Do they even have an army?
I’m sure he and his father will both volunteer.
“I have become Shiva, destroyer of worlds.”
...meaning they are one kilo-class Russian sub away from having no air force.
Clock Boy is the Qatarian version of a drone, just more stupid...

I agree with the sentiment, but Dingbat just gave up the ME to Russia. Somebody would’ve filled the void.
Not that we had much influence before they got there, but they’ll be sure that we won’t for the next 40 years at least.
We have a large military presence in qatar. What happens when russia or Syria retaliates.
Qatar Foundation International doing a bang up job of penetrating our educational institutions and QATAR working in a coalition with ISLAMOCOMMIE & TURKS to forward the pipeline via Syria. Assad must go! What a friggin crew and mission!
Well get it on PUNK!! the Russians will eat you for breakfast!!
I forgot to add — WHY DID YOU SUNNI BASTARDS ATTACK MY COUNTRY????
Damn dude, I think that needs a repost.
So, I hope Clock Boy decides to punk Vladimir Putin by giving him one of his ‘homemade clocks.’ Let’s see if Vlad gets the joke.
I can’t keep track of all this anymore. If there weren’t Christians and Jews over there getting slaughtered, I’d say nuke them. Give the Muslims an express ride to paradise.
Oil, same reason Putin is there.
Syria is Middle East’s version of Serbia in 1914.
NOW we know why they gave the 5 gitmo Al Qaeda generals to Qatar. /sarc
What, are they going to hire ten thousand Filipinos to form a Qatari army?
