Caught On Tape: Dramatic Footage Of Russia's First Airstrikes In Syria
As we reported earlier this morning, at the “request” (whatever that means in the context of Russian politics) of Vladimir Putin, Russian lawmakers have approved airstrikes in Syria and unlike the rather deliberate pace of Washington’s efforts to rout ISIS, Moscow doesn’t appear to be wasting any time.
As CNN reports, Russia has conducted its first strikes near Homs after effectively warning the US to stay out of the sky.
Russia has conducted its first airstrike in Syria, near the city of Homs, a senior U.S. official told CNN on Wednesday .
The Russians told the United States that it should not fly U.S. warplanes in Syria, but gave no geographical information about where Russia planned to strike. The senior official said U.S. missions are continuing as normal.
Yes, the “US missions are continuing as normal”, which means no one is doing much of anything and some CIA-trained proxy fighters are being pick-up-truck-jacked somewhere by al-Qaeda.
In any event, here are the visuals which purport to show Russia’s first strikes on anti-regime targets:
And a few still shots:

As a side note, Homs is not generally identified as being an ISIS stronghold, although the group did reportedly seize Al-Qaryatain in August:

And the Pentagon is already out trying to stir up the controversy (again via CNN):
But a senior U.S. administration official told CNN's Elise Labott the Russian airstrike near the city of Homs "has no strategic purpose" in terms of combating ISIS, which "shows they are not there to go after ISIL." ISIL is another acronym for ISIS.

Here’s the neocons’ dilemma: whose plane is going to get shot down in Syria - Saudi’s, UAE’s, or US’? Which one will produce more outrage amongst the Kardashian-watching public?
Decisions, decisions… Hmmm… ;-)
Looney
Too obvious..... instead the Neocon's will cook up something else, along the lines that the Russians are bombing children, dogs, cats etc. The Reality is that the USSA is too over extended to launch another war against Syria. Without boots on the ground, and the ISIS proxies destroyed, Amerika cannot win.
Insert joke about hope, change and "yes we can" here...
Obama is probably not having a very good morning.
Couldn't have been the US or any US allies, I saw no one dressed for a wedding in the video.
n
Some of those guys looked incredibly white. Like, the kind of white that only comes from growing up in Northern Europe as a child of very white Northern Europeans.
Now Britain needs more tanks to prepare for war with Russia;

Maybe some airline will fly a passenger plane over this area.
instead the Neocon's will cook up something else, along the lines that the Russians are bombing children, dogs, cats etc.
I liked the scene in "Wag the Dog" where they blue-screened the little girl into a fire fight and added the cat in post-production for effect... I wonder if Speilberg or Cameron is producing this new episode in American gullibility....
I just had a Wargazm! Fucking awesome! Russia doesnt half-ass shit like the US. From the smoke in the video it is obvious they hit some hardware. There were also some tankers there so I guess this might have been a refueling point for the barbarians.
And for everyone crying about collateral damage. If an army infiltrates a city, that city is fair game to get demolished. Collateral damage is acceptable. But then I guess the hypocrites might have forgotten about Fallujah (use of banned/illegal weapons aside).
From that video seems like the bombs at least landed in the right area. All young men and beards.
Not a single wedding in sight.

Yeah, but those weren't ISIS. Those were rebels. Not angels, I know, but miles apart from what ISIS represents and morally on an equal footing to Assad's troops. This isn't a war against evil, but a war to support Assad. Nothing wrong with Russia defending its geopolitical interests, but then people shouldn't criticize the US for doing the same (apart from its appaling effectiveness).
If Russia doesn't go in full scale, it will hardly remove ISIS and restore Assad hegemony, just a continuation of the same. All in or nothing.
Assad has every right to defend his country. That includes getting help from his allies. Anything else is no one's business, especially the uninvited US\NATO goons.
Assad is not defending Syria.
Assad is a typical dictator on the way out who will destroy the country before leaving.
... who was Freely and Fairly Elected TWICE since 2002 by 80% of the population. Turn off your TV
Here is the real shit.
Combat cam footage shows Russian planes hitting ISIS targets7 minute statement by Putin about U.S. involvement and being the cause of all the war and destruction in the MENA. Good stuff right there.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=427&v=VbZDyr2LkdI
But of course our treasonous regime doesn't give a shit and will only keep on doing this until we end up in WWIII
Designate rebel as unlawful combatant and put the screws to them. Worked splendidly for GWB, amirite?
You had no argument, and only screeching.
No, no, no!
You haven't started thinking in post-Westphalian mode: everything that goes on, anywhere, is the business of the US MIC.
Just as Serbia has no rights to its borders, Syria has no right to self-defense.
CENTCOM rules, and "Assad must go." Because USA.
The US geopolitical interest is to rule the World, as in all of it, for the Ratschild Banking Mafia. Oh, and for freedom, democracy and whatever.
ISIS is fucked, Russia doesn't have our 'Rules of Engagement'. This should be over in a few weeks.
It's funny how the same red cresent moon trucks are the same ones that are being used in Jade Helm,Dave Hodge has shown the videos of the train cars filled with them, strange, very strange.
Dave Hodge is a fear monger and is full of shit. Every time I left a comment asking for proof my comment was deleted by Dave Hodge. If you don't agree 100% with Dave your comments will be deleted. This guy is worse than Alex Jones when spreading rumor.
The method here is to destroy pockets within the gov territory and expand outwards to the north and east. Have a truce and understanding with the Kurds of both Syria and Iraq and keep erradicating. Take away the profits and the vermin will scatter.
Take photos, names, fingerprints and start persecuting. Then, Obama and the war merchands would have to find another sandbox to play. (Pun intended)
Right, the attacks startet today, but the intelligence gathering started a long time ago.
Now there will be some priority targets and the closing of pockets.
Then moving out.
And the copters will step up Toyota orders.
The US Dollar is on life support and Putin is outflanking the US Hegemony.
Imagine the optics of Putin routing ISIL in a few short weeks while the world watches, after seeing Obama spend billions "fighting" and loosing ground to them for the past year.
It's desperation time for the US as our hypocrisy is displayed for all the world to see and world support vaperizes.
The alliance lines are being drawn for World War, and the death throes of the Republic are at hand!
America is one huge bubble, built completely on false promises, waiting for the pin prick. Suddenly, the influence of the USA over the World will disappear as we are exposed, and it's revealed we are Naked and POOR with no true allys!
That's right. Ash Carter was just blabbing about what the "coalition" might do in response to the reckless Russians.
Coalition? What fucking coalition? It's USSA/Israel with their little vassal states nodding in approval. As usual France is especially gay. Bullies have no true allies.
The French have been, are, and will be cowards in the war business.
Maybe they are peace loving. But then kick out this Holland guy, which calls himself ´Socialist´.
Rebels...LOL
Like the ones who are "carefully vetted" by USSA and then when they enter Syria, promptly join up with ISIS and give them their equipment?
How many times are you going to fall for that? There is no difference, just USSA cover story for re-supplying scumbag jihadists.
Today, Russian aerospace force jets delivered pinpoint strikes on eight ISIS terror group targets in Syria. In total, 20 flights were made,” spokesperson for the Russian Defense Ministry, Igor Konashenkov, said.
“As a result, arms and fuel depots and military equipment were hit. ISIS coordination centers in the mountains were totally destroyed,” he added.

Russian airstrike hit the rebel-held town of Talbisah north of Homs City. Talbisah is home to Syrian al-Qaeda affiliate Jabhat al-Nusra, hardline Islamist Ahrar al-Sham, and a number of other local rebel groups, all of which are active in local governance efforts in the area. Both Jabhat al-Nusra and the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) have claimed a number of vehicle-borne IEDs (VBIEDs) in Homs City, located only 12 kilometers south of Talbisah.
http://www.moonofalabama.org/2015/09/syria-thoughts-on-the-russian-air-s...
Evelyn Farkas, the top US official on Russia resigns. The next day, Russia moves in on Syria with an air strike.
She, Victoria Nuland and Kerry can all stand on the front lines here.
Ukraine is selling China nat gas now. Siempra decided not to export gas? I guess the US is going to spin this opportunity off in the form of McCarthyism and make it RUssia's fault.
Stupid O'dumber, sanctions didn't work fool.
Why is the U.S. even in Saudi Arabia? Because the Arabs said they would finance the U.S. attacks on Syria according to John Kerry.
Those British tanks are not for use against Russia. They are to use against the British people.
Dust from pulverized concrete from bomb blast has that effect. Your probably too young to remember, but back in 1982 or 83 muzzies blew up a US Marines barracks in Lebanon, killing close to 200. I remember seeing the bodies being dragged out, you couldn't tell the racial differences {except for the big lips} because the bodies were covered in fine concrete dust from the explosion. I strongly doubt that any Europeans where there. Not saying they aren't elsewhere, just not in Homs
Dust from pulverized concrete from bomb blast. Where else have I seen that? Oh yeah, the Wolrd Trade Center.
Just saw Bloomturd's headline: "Russian Starts Airstrikes in Support of Assad". When will see one of their headlines stating "U.S., Israel, and Saudi Arabia Increase Funding, Training and Logistical Support for ISIS".
How about just Posting the Oil Pipeline Map ?
Lot of smart people think mossad had something to do with that.
Nah Nah Nah, those guys were just some white hispanics on vacation.
they better stay outta egypt the
It's always a tough day emotionally, for the guy that spends his life trying to look tough....when his narcissistic self image collides with the reality...that he, in fact is not tough at all when confronted with any resistance, and his only option is to curl up in the corner of the room and cover his crying eyes, humiliated seemingly forever....until the dust clears and his narcissism convinces him once again that he is a tough guy.......and the cycle repeats itself.

[Obama is probably not having a very good morning.]
Good!
;-D
The lazy ass fucker is still probably in bed thinking about what he's going to spend our dollars on for lunch.
Nor is John Brennan.
Obama does not give a shit. He probably does not even know much about what is going on. Between fucking up US economy, golf games
and getting humped by Reggie, there really is not much time for foreign policy.
Actually, the golf games are just a cover to spend some time with 'nice young men' in the 'clubhouse', doing gay, I mean, guy things.
My bet is that Obama and the baboon are working on the decor of the post presidency ranch.
Typical of the "nouveau riche" to think that they can design and decorate on their own, resulting in a "Jewish Renaissance" helter skelter design.
thats FUNNY!
Lighten up man.
That's the leader of the free world you're talking about.
Let Russia have at it. Why not? Of course this does not sit well with the same people that thought helping the mujahideen in Afghanistan was a great idea and we know how that turned out
The hypocricy is incredible. How long before the Nudelman crowd calls for humanitarian aid and condemns Russia for brutal atrocities against the soon to become ISIS "freedom fighters".
Total absurdity yet you are probably spot on in how this plays out in regard to US/Israeli propaganda efforts.
Stupid TV is on in the other room and I can hear that filthy piece of trash McCain blasting the "indiscriminate" Russians. It's so bad I could gouge my ears out. No matter what happens, the Russians have got to be ready for a huge MSM smear campaign.
(...and cue headline montage from MH17 in 3...2...1...)
Yup, Kerry is on now with the caption "US WILL CONTINUE AIR STRIKES IN SYRIA".
This is a propaganda treasure chest for warmongering zio-tards. Don't be surprised if MSM shows us "proof" of Russian atrocities like bombing schools, churches...brave 'Murikans rescuing children. There are lots of ways this could escalate rapidly.
Another bean run wouldn't hurt.
But but I thought the democrats were against war and stuff. You mean Obama was lying about ending the wars. BUt but...........
And he has a nobel peace prize. For whatever thats worth...
What 0's peace prize is worth...
http://wullpaper.com/free/free-nobel-peace-prize-with-an-oil-change.html
Putin and the Russians don't give a flying fuck what the MSM will say. That's why they will dominate. Our politicians are a bunch of limp wristed transgendered eunuch fuck tards easily intimidated by some minimum wage fuck head reporter working for one of the Soros funded media outlets.
That could be true about them not caring what MSM has to say. I don't believe TPTB don't care about public opinion either; they're gonna do whatever they want no matter what anybody thinks. MSM does their spin anyway to try to make people believe anybody not agreeing with what they say is happening is bad and in the minority.
Just like in 1984.
That.
Obozo is going to HAVE TO make some decisions and they won't be good ones, especially after his UN speech bragging on our 'powerful' military, you know the one that's had its training and maintenance budgets cut to the bone so they could buy shiny new toys.....
Don't diss those shiny toys. That's how you land the high paying MIC jobs after you leave the service with your pension. Who cares that it wastes trillions and does nothing for defense.
Personally, I believe stealth technology does not make a figher aircraft better. And vertical takeoff in an airplane is of no value. The best fighters are still the f 14 - 18 series. The rest are over priced junk.
instead the Neocon's will cook up something else, along the lines that the Russians are bombing children, dogs, cats etc.
Yeah. You are so right, Latina Lover.
Only American Bombs are indiscriminate and kill and maim children, dogs and cats, as well as civilian noncombatants.
Russian bombs are far suoerior and only target beligerants.
So any reports of Russian Bombs failing t strike their intended targets are certain to be fallacious.
YOU ARE JUST AS EVIL AS A NEOCON, EXCEPT THAT YOU ARE CHEERLEADING A RUSSIAN WAR.
HOW ABOUT THIS...
STOP THE WAR...PERIOD.
When you are in another Foreign Nation...IT IS NO LONGER DEFENSE.
Well this is a Slaaaaaaav agitprop web site.
...which is why it's in English. And also why you're here every. fucking. day.
It's simple. When people cant defend an argument or explain why US foreign policy has failed, they shift the blame to someone else to help with their own mental deficiency issues.
Well, ZH is owned and operated out of Bulgaria. I'm not complaining, it's their best export.
"ZH is owned and operated out of Bulgaria".
I have heard that before but do you have any proof of that Billy? And who is ABC Media?
At any rate, calling ZH a "pro Russian" site is so over the fuckan top I don't even know where to begin.
Would I make a factual statement that wasn't demonstrably true?

One could say that about any subject. Folks like to talk -- that's why the ZH comments section is so popular -- and I like to go to the facts when a discussion takes a speculative turn. I've mentioned the Bulgarian connection previously such as when some commenters seemed to think that ZH is run by ABC Television rather than ABC Media, Inc. out of Sophia. Facts are good.

"Well, ZH is owned and operated out of Bulgaria'
Is that the same Bulgaria that blocked Russian flights to Syria, or the one that blocked the Russian pipeline? So many Bulgarias, one gets confused.
I am only aware of one Bulgaria but I don't keep up with their political moves.
Well keep up then! Lives depend on it.
I'm on it! (Switches channel to Bulgaria Today).
It was mentioned here. Um, like last month.
I must have been out sick that day.
Can you say "invited"?
The legitimate government of Syria asked for Russia to help to save the country from "terrists". Get it?
But you do have a positive message. Why don't you tell it to ISIS? Maybe they will just quit.
Let's see, the Russians are in Syria to clean up somebody else's mess. Now whose mess is that? Tom, please tell us.
Whose Mess?
Typical mess created by a mohammaden believing dictator, Assad.
You believe Puutie is cleaning it up by proping up Assad?
Quite a fool. Must be a Paid Puutie Puppy.
Disgustus, go kill yourself...
I blame the Ottomans.
Go dive in the toilet and not get out - it's where you belong.
Having a bad day, Augustus? You used to be able to do better than that, but then, you don't have much to work with on this subject.
Do you take your choad orally or rectally?
TT, I will agree with you that any bomb dropped on any populated area by anyone is likely to injure, kill and/or maim the innocent along with the guilty. I will also agree that ISIS is a CIA creation and the direct result of an incompetent and meddlesome us foreign policy. Having giving you all that, how would you fix the situation as it exists now? ISIS is an invading supra-national army that steals local resources, enslaves the population of occupied territories and executes an extreme version of religion. They do so with violence. How do you propose they be removed? Or is it your contention that now that they are there we should ignore the situation since it is happening to the Kurds of northern Syria and not in Baltimore, Dallas, Frankfurt or Paris? There is a problem. A problem created by US stupidity. Ignoring the problem does not makes it go away.
At least Russia is there at the request of the legally elected government of Syria and seeks only to restore the status ante-Bellum.
No, I don't want to see innocents die. And, was I in charge of the clean up, I would not send bombs but boots. Soldiers that can discriminate friend/foe (to a more accurate degree than bombs) before releasing a 7.62x39. But boots are much more expensive (politically) than bombs.
"STOP THE WAR" is a nice thought but ignores reality.
Boots on the ground is really the only way to win a war and is also less costly in terms of unintended casualties. It's more dangerous for the troops making the incursion than is airborne assault but if the mission includes the goal of protecting innocent civilians then any effort made to do so increases the chances of the mission being effective rather than counterproductive.
Ground incursions may also turn up evidence of Western support for terrorist groups which could be used to out the real aggressors and possibly shame them into retreat.
It wouldn't suprise me if Bibi and Obummer both asked Putin for a couple of weeks of air strikes before launching a ground offensive... just to make sure any stray dogs and cats (or CIA operatives) have time to make it to their E&E pick-up.
There will be ground forces to mop up ISIS, along with the rest of the various "terrists" fighting to overthrow Assad. Bank on it.
The feet in those boots on the ground will be Syrian, Iranian, and Iraqi, with a few Russian special ops to give a little assistance when needed. Why send in a bunch of foreigners when the locals can do the work? That is doubly true when you don't want to occupy a territory. Go in, do the heavy lifting, then phase down after softening up the targets. The stupidity coming from our "leadership" is stunning.
There are boots on the ground. Syrian Army wears boots as standard government issue.
Tom...the right people never die
Everybody dies eventually but sometimes you have to wait until the blood transfusions and organ transplants are no longer effective.
from the Contras to the Mujahdeen to ISIS, the only proven method of resisting US terrorist proxies is to fight them. Neocons dont do compromise. For them it's all or nothing.
Tall Tom, the decisive difference is that the US (whose primary goal is to foment CHAOS for the benefit of greater Israel) likely targets civilians, children, dogs and cats on purpose whereas the Russians are probably more interested in real results like killing Xe mercenaries disguised as Isis militants.
Amerika doesn't want to win. That's the point.
Exactly!
When we talk about the incompetence or ineffectual military strikes from the US point of view, "ITS INTENTIONAL"!
The only thing the US can do at this point is crank up the anti-Russian propaganda. Russia is in the [right] on assisting Syria and has shown enormous restraint so far. (I wish Putin would of went in earlier) I am against any war but ISIS/ISIL/IS/Daesh is not going away on their on, especially with steady funding/training from western govts.
Anyone else seen the Russian statement that IS has 'components' for WMDs?
Good call Latina! It already began. CNN this morning says the Russian air strikes were NOT aimed at ISIS targets, and that the strikes are brutal assaults indiscriminate in nature. The implication being that Russia is carrying out attacks in a random unknowing manner, unlike the deadly US air strikes which have pushed ISIS to the brink.
I watched CNN as CNN is the Official News Outlet of the US State Department and Israel. So what they say is Official. One "Spider Marks Super Hero" former US Army colonel let the cat out of the bag when he said: "Perhaps it is now America's best move to escalate the war in Syria to up the pressure on both Assad and Putin".
Think about it for a moment! What he could only mean was that the USA was going to up it's support for ISIS, Al-Qaeda, El-Nusra. The USA has no other means to ESCALATE. So Spider Marks let slip that the USA control the level of fighting ISIS can carry on, an he thinks we in the USA should enable ISIS to escalate.
For my money, Marks on CNN just let slip that the USA indeed is ISIS's main backer, using proxy Saudis. And Saudi announced the same policy. Saudi will escalte the fight in Syria. Saudi has no means other than ISIS to escalte.
You get what I am saying here?
Great catch, Jack - you are going above and beyond the call of duty exposing yourselve to a melted brain by watching CNN.
I can't watch it for more than 45 seconds without getting a strange sensation like I've been teleported into a parallel dimension and my intestines have been turned inside out and I have an insatiable desire to hear more about Caitlin Jenner.
Maybe Russia and Iran will drive IS to the Saudi border?
There will be a flood of videos of damaged buildings etc. Every building blown up by ISIS etc will now be pinned on Russia. Every damaged building, broken window etc will be claimed to be evidence of Putin's brutality.Good luck with that BS.
Interestingly Assad and the Syrian Opposition have signed a ceasefire in Prague. Presumably both sides will liaise to ensure that only ISIS (TM) is targetted. The MSM presumably will run their censorship by ommission.

Here’s the neocons’ dilemma: whose plane is going to get shot down in Syria - Saudi’s, UAE’s, or US’? Which one will produce more outrage amongst the Kardashian-watching public?
Phhht. What kinda outrage is that kinda shit gonna stir? You want outrage, set up an Assad lookalike doing a smack rap in Russian about Brucelyn still being a boy and stand back and marvel.
Obviously a plane carrying one or more of the Kardashians needs to be shot down over the area. That should generate significant outrage.
I don't care who wins, I'm on board as long as we're vaporizing the Kardashians.
Why get a kardashian if we can get the Head Witch, Kris Jenner? She's the one who spawned those not so little devils!
Oh noooooees! That means they'll find pieces of Kim's butt spread out over hundreds of square miles!
Hilarious and sadly true
I propose Israel - the more the better.
Second thoughts, it may not be a good idea They will just send us the bill and use their stooges to demand two replacement for every plane lost.
winning hearts and minds..
we'll be treated as liberators...
rose pedals... and first borns will be named after us
Are the US resupply missions still good to go?
Time for that lost Malaysian Airlines plane to show up.
@Looney
Neocon? So now Obama/Jarret/Biden/Lurch/Hillary are neocons?
This shit-show is totally owned by progressive obamatron assclown criminals. Progressive-leaning neocon idiots are cheering from the sidelines of course.
I just wonder why so much energy is expended here misdirecting blame away from the progressive shoulders it rightly sits on?
You can be damn sure this is not constitutional conservatives directing foreign policy, agree?

Not to belabor the point, but I've posted freely to ZH for nearly 4 years where I've always spoken my mind openly, and at times forcefully. Nobody ever "moderated" much less censored me, nor did I ever complain of butt-hurt if someone flamed my (at times deserving) ass. I don't know what the Saker calls that, but I call it Free Speech.
Granted, a private site has the right to edit content, but if at the same time it poses as a bastion of truth, then it's really just PROPAGANDA, regardless of how much truth manages to seep through.
Fuck you, downvoter.
I don't really mean that, of course. Just saying it to prove a point.
Oh moderator..... that ebear guy was mean to me. Shut him up, would you?
Is any of this getting through?
Russia: the new bastion of civilization.
Yeah, right.
"It is extremely dangerous to encourage people to see themselves as exceptional, whatever the motivation." Vladimir Putin

as for the gay bashing:

Somebody wants the job done quickly.
Now to simply wait and see, how will the US stick its nose in this, this time?

So a couple of things. Mentioning "homs is not historically an ISIS stronghold" feeds into the neo con lie that Russia is there to bolster only Assad. In addition to ISIS, there are many other Islamist factions, many of which feature US trained chechnyan ( and *.stan) fighters.
Secondly, where's your article that the bronze age boy buggerers from Saudi Arabia are turning up rhetoric that a military option is needed to remove Assad.

MOre on edit:
Al Nusra, ISIS, and all of them are all a plague on humanity, none better or worse. It appears that French, US and ( most importantly ) Syrian planes have been fucking up ISIS royally the last couple of days, so the Russians are best off helping on fronts where the air traffic isn't so congested. Let's not forget thanks to the West, NATO, Turkey, Israel, the Gulf states, Syria is fighting a 3 ( at least ) front war of foreign aggression. The best thign I see, is that now the West is backed into a corner to actually DO SOMETHING other than bomb empty warehouses / ISIS when they get too close to the kurds in Iraq.
Very revealing.
Bombs from Russia with love.
Putin seems to have made his move masterfully.
Already, Europe is cracking with regard to the sanctions. Italy's PM Renzi rather clearly telegraphed that the sanctions have run their course and the time has come for 'detente' (i.e., a step back from economic suicide to appease the regime in DC.)
The US/Israel/UK/EU Jacobins are in a bind because they will need an event that would evoke the fervor felt on 9-11 to justify some sort of reset.
They can go with a plane being shot down with the American pilot tortured and Russia blamed. I don't think that narrative would move the needle in Europe, however. Something like a ship sinking could get the bovinus americanus riled up enough in quantity and kind to push through some sort of bombing campaign.
But therein is precisely the problem: The only target that the US led horde has ever had is Assad. It is categorically clear that the Russian Federation will not sit by as Assad is directly attacked in such an operation.
The only moves I see are either a quiet, tail between the legs pull back or a blindingly insane decision. By blindingly insane, I do not mean an Operation Barbarossa, which would have worked despite the two fronts if Hitler did not employ his stupid anti-Slavic policies (cf. Col. von Stauffenberg and his work attempting to organize the eastern territories against the Soviets.)
By blindingly insane I mean engaging Russia in Syria 'to defend the 'moderate rebels' in their struggle for freedom.'
If these pricks are nutty enough to promote trannyism as a normal disposition, I'm afraid I don't have much hope that they will suddenly show thoughtful analysis regarding their predicament in Syria.
And the pilgrim killing Saudi royal family is under an internal assault.
It was masterful in terms of timing.
Despite the lies in the mainstream media ( and here ) Syria solidly had the upper hand, and the only gains by the western backed foreign terrorists came with direct support from Israeli and Turkish armies. Syria had the momentum and it was a matter of time, especially as the politics of overtyl supporting ISIS / Al Nusra have become particularly toxic lately. So with waning support for the radicals, Russia swoops in at the most politically expedient time. Meanwhile as you say politics are fraying all over the world. The lies are getting more obvious to many people, which as you suggest will necessitate a full scale false flag.
Syria sepcifically, the truth is, it's been going this way for years, and 1 ham fisted criminal operation after another has blown up in the face of us, the supposed "good guys" making anythign short of WW3 a losing proposition ( WW3 would mean everyone loses though ). I said last year that the West may as well get on board, because if they sit there and pretend someone is going to show up who is going to do more than pretend. Here we are. Now all we have is the hysterical echoes of the likes of charles krauthammer's disable rantings about how Russia is only there to buttress Assad. That deceptive statement is at best without context and at worst a provable lie. In an odd concidence, this article parrots that same lie.
Oh we will have an American pilot shot dow and he will beheaded by Russians doing those crazy dances the Russian Army likes to do. All shot over at Dreamworks or Disney in Hollywood by Rita Katz with a green screen.
The pilot will be this all American guy in a orange prison jump suit. Maybe the Russians will get real mean and feed him to Spielberg's shark or dinosaurs.
The Russians will be singing the old Soviet anthem because in Hollywood they have no idea the USSR no longer exists because Hollywood is filled with murderous Bolsheviks at heart. Note the Bolshies were NOT Russian christians.
They can try being that ham fisted, but Russia is not a broken pseudo-state like Iraq or Serbia were.
I would imagine if the nutcases who run and administer things in Empire USA attempted some such thing, Putin would have the FSB start releasing some tantalizing information. The first thing to be divulged would be the address of the soundstage used for their psychological operations and offshore bank accounts for the Hollywood participants.
If we get another OJ style trial or Lindsay Lohan saga, then I would say the powers that be could retreat. The average American won't remember any of this Syria business after three weeks.
Rita is alrady plugging Twitter about how Russia is attacking Rebels, not ISIS, lol.
Russia is not fighting for Syria as long as Putin is in power. Putin is a bigger POS than our beloved Obama.
As for Syria, it is impossible to win/stop the Syria war fighting just in Syria since almost all manpower and supplies are coming from outside (Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Jordan,Israel, etc.),. Consequently, to stop the war is Syria one must strike Turkey and Saudis.
The key players in Syria are Iran and China. As for Iran, so far, their Syria policy was a total failure.
