Russia is Bombing Syria


Posted: Sep 30, 2015

Hmmm. What was that meeting between Russia and Obama last week? I think Obama knew this was going to happen before the attacks today. Russia is up to no good and Obama fell for :Putin's crap once again....or doese this go back to that open mic event where Obama told the representative from Russia to tell Putin he would have more flexibility when he was re-elected?

Really too much info from the link I'm going to provide, but this is NOT good. Kerry is speaking before the U.N. Security Council now.

Russia's launch of air strikes against rebel targets in Syria will not alter the strategy of the US-led coalition fighting the Islamic State, American officials have said.

"The US-led coalition will continue to fly missions over Iraq and Syria as planned and in support of our international mission to degrade and destroy ISIL," State Department spokesman John Kirby told reporters.

Explaining the dramatic sequence of events, Kirby said: "A Russian official in Baghdad this morning informed US Embassy personnel that Russian military aircraft would begin flying anti-ISIL missions today over Syria.

"He further requested that US aircraft avoid Syrian airspace during these missions," he said.

Separately, a senior US official told reporters that the United States did not consider this brief heads-up to be in keeping with Moscow's promise to communicate with US forces to "de-conflict" the combat area in order to prevent accidental encounters.

Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says at least 27 dead, including five women and six children, from the strikes in the towns of al-Rastan and Talbisah as well as the village of al-Zafaraaneh. All are in the northern Homs countryside.

They added the number of dead is likely to rise as there are many still buried under the rubble.

Everywhere you read about WW3, it here already. It will get worse! We will be at war with Russia, China, Iran. They all want the United States and Obama is letting them. We are weak and look stupid! Our military is no way near ready to even fight since it has shrunk and is also weak.

The unclassified report shows the chemical weapons were used by Assad. He has not made a final decision.
