Russia sends troops to Syria

[FelixDeCat]

Outrageous for you to use this thread to refer to Hillary Clinton.

After all according to the New York Times, Hillary returned to the White House everything that she was caught stealing. See:

Clinton's Return Gifts Found to Belong to White House

The Clintons stole things? That's impossible!

According to Politifact, it's not stealing to take something that doesn't belong to you as long as you return it or pay for it when caught. (Is it any wonder that defense lawyers are one of the Dems' biggest donor groups?)

One thing I think nobody has addressed is what happens after Putin and Assad decide ISIS is no longer a threat to Assad. That point may occur while ISIS still controls a lot of Iraq, and at that point Putin is going to want something concrete to continue destroying them, whereas we are still going to want help doing the dangerous work. In my opinion we should be using this time to arm/train the hell out of the Peshmerga.

Russians inscribe 'For Paris' on bombs destined for Syria

Russia has intensified strikes on Syrian militants, including from Islamic State
Russian politicians have said the Paris attack underscores the need for the West and the Kremlin to bury their differences and join forces to take on militants in Syria.

So Victorian, why is this a problem for you?
One might mistake your seething hatred of Russia for a love of ISIS.
It's standing between you and supporting this campaign.

I don't hate Russia, I despise the murderous thug who is running Russia. You're being played and you apparently are enjoying it. <shrug>

btw, You really are a disgusting little shit. I guess I can see why your so enamored with Putin.

The regressive liberal... always going on about tolerance and love, yet always so vile and full of hate.


Hypocrites being hypocritical... who would've thought of that.


Anyways, Putin may not be what Russia wants, but it's what Russia needs. I don't even like the guy, but at least he has the will to fight this terrible enemy, unlike a certain person. Appeasement worked really against the Nazis, didn't it? Oh, wait...

So you're fine with this?

"One might mistake your seething hatred of Russia for a love of ISIS."

but I'm some kind of 'liberal hypocrite' for calling him on what truly is "vile and full of hate". You betcha.

And Godwin? Really?

Yeah, thanks for the dance.

Russian Ground Forces are present inside the Syrian Christian town of Sadad in Homs Governorate helping Syrian Soldiers and local Villagers against ISIS

The news continues to be clear: Russia is fighting ISIS.

My point is simple. Suck it up and join them. The United States should be working on the solution to the Middle East, not attacking it. Not arming terrorists and trying to destabilize the Middle East.

After Bush entered Iraq I'd say Americans had enough with Neocon policy. Then we got Clinton and Obama to continue it. John Kerry's plan for Syria? Destroy it. Topple the government and all will be well. It's as if Kerry didn't run a campaign against that very notion in 2004.

Democrat leadership is full of Neocons, same as the Republicans. And THEY have fueled a great deal of terrorism together.

You mean Russia is joining the US? We have had soldiers on the ground in that same capacity for a while now, and we've been far more effective at taking territory than Russia has.

This is principally because until the bombing Russia didn't care about ISIS, as shown by their actions. At least the airline bombing seems to have caused them to reconsider and join us.

 

[Magic Carpet]

U.S. media can no agree with itself if Russia is giving ISIS an airforce or if Russia pounds ISIS with the biggest bomber raid in decades. Such confusion occurs when propaganda fantasies collide with the observable reality.

To bridge such divide requires some fudging.

So when the U.S. claims to act against the finances of the Islamic State while not doing much, the U.S Public Broadcasting Service has to use footage of Russian airstrikes against the Islamic State while reporting claimed U.S. airstrike successes.
