A little agitprop for your pleasure.

Russia claims its targets in Syria are the Islamic State group and Syrian rebels, neither of which are in possession of aircraft or missiles.

So how can these warmongering uniparty fools claim a no-fly zone will do anything but help ISIS?

You are correct no-fly will protect ISIS, and murder Kurds, Christians and Yadzis, as the US and Turkey will fly a lot more in the no-fly.

However the article is agitprop disinformation designed to demonize Russia, and is a pretext to pressure Russia to not deploy the S400 system. Other agitprop "news" (Value Walk) is "reporting" S400 deployed.

S400 is confirmed deployed and operational around Russian major cities (Moscow, St. Petersburg), and rumored to be exceptional in capability.

Deployment in Syria would make it unlikely the US would be able to support or save any of the the chosen terrorists that now have Obama's protection.

You can be sure that the systems are on navy deployment as well.

Lol. We trust the Russians? Why are they any better than the Syrians?
Putin and Assad--twins. Putin is just 5'6"; Basher is 6'2". That's their only difference: short stuff (Putin) and Haffiz's son (scary).

Neither of them have any respect for anyone, including GOD.

Hit the nail on the head, but hey, the US has gotta arm those unicorns.

I think if the S-400 was deployed in Syria we'd know about it.

There is a lot that goes with that system. Launchers, missiles, radars, a command post. I could see them deploying it at their main base of flight operations. Just in case.

No, we trust the Muslim Brotherhood, Palestinian Authority, al Queda, the Taliban, the neo Pakis, Saudis, Qatar, Yemen, moderate ISIS, Valerie Jarrett and Negro Kenyans.

We can't lose.

==============================================

We can't win with the cowardly POTUS we have. He and his party haven't got the cajones to fight anyone for any reason.

Trusting the Russians is like trusting a rusty, broken down, flat-tired, no-brake bicycle to be your mode of transportation to and from...everywhere.

It is likely that Russia would deploy S350 or S400 around capital assets.

Previously in Syria, Russia has supplied S300 and earlier systems purchased by Assad, they have just finished delivery of the last S300's.

Up to about a year ago, Israel would strike and disable or destroy those Syrian manned systems when they needed to overfly Syria for defensive strategies.

Russia stayed out of these incidents, and Israel maintained defensive control.

Recently, Israel has ceased these airstrikes as the Syrian situation deteriorated and destabilized. Israel has not made statements regarding cessation, and maintains an apparent good relationship with Russia. It may be a sign that Russia will defend Russians when in Syria.

The Roman War of 70 AD. Better hit the books.

Now I get it. Your reference was just a tad oblique for me. Yes, second temple GONE.

Rome became the new center of the universe.
Interesting that they, the Romans, the Christ persecutors, became the place where the earthly head of the Catholic Church lives (Castelgandolfo)
St. Peter's, the Vatican, built on the ancient Vatican Hill, ironic.

Yeah, Russians must maintain strict control. The range of the system, in a tight place like that, could make it an offensive weapon as well. Also the stated range may not be its actual range.

Gets complicated.

Interestingly, it was the Russians who cooperated with the US in improving a highway and tunnel across Russian Federation territory so we could resupply NATO troops on the ground in Afghanistan after 9-11. None of our Islamic "friends" would allow ground passage of overflight of Mohammedan lands.

There is a lot we DON'T know about the S400.

I wouldn't want to be the one to find out.
