Yeah...
Turns out it wasn’t so “Massive”.
They dropped 20 bombs, many on an ISIS camp that the Russians have been hitting for two weeks, that is now supposedly EMPTY.
Must have been using intelligence given them by Obama.
Not so sure I’d believe it was empty....photos popping up sowing carnage here and there....
BTW....when the French first started bombing Raqqa the people on the ground thought it was still Russia...and twitter and other social sources were reporting it as Russia for a while until they realized it was France.
Looks to me like Putin sidestepped so France could carry out their mission.
Question is, if Russia has been hitting ISIS so hard, not to mention the tonnage the West and it’s allies (Jordan, etc.) have dropped (I saw some numbers last week - can’t find the link now, but, the total is impressive even if the daily amounts are not) how is it that there’s anything but rubble to bounce?
I am coming to believe that we are more nearly in a “1984” scenario than I could have dreamt, a few years ago.
That’s not to say the terrorists and their supporters are not very dangerous, or should not be obliterated. The response, however...
