    The Americans are claiming the Russia is killing the wrong people. Well let see in Libya the the Americans funded the so called freedom fighters that were brought into the country. Now those same people are flying the ISIS flag they were ISIS all along. They seem to mix up freedom fighters and terrorist depending who you want to listen to. These same people who were in Libya are now in Syria and the Americans are calling them freedom fighters once again.

    The US claim to have done 3.000 bombing with no prof of anyone being killed. When they attacked Iraq they were showing all these precision bombs. The Russian attacked and in two days have them on the run. Now China and Iran plan on helping out too. Russia have been invited in by the president of the country.

    From what I understand, there is a civil war in Syria, rebel forces there are of many kinds and it is not easy to identify if they are ISIS or not. To simplify matters, Russia is attacking the rebel stronghold and it doesn't matter if they are ISIS or not. The aim is to uphold the law of Prime Minister Assad who is a criminal in the eyes of US military. That Assad is the crux why US and Russia couldn't have cooperation. The US wants Assad out but Russia wants all other forces out and leave Assad to power.

    Now my question to US - what happens when Assad is booted out of power, who is going to rule Syria?

    Maybe Russia has the right idea this time. Kill 'em all until the fighting stops. Let their allah sort 'em out.

    If they get rid of Assad then they have another Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya. and that is what the Americans want.
    The people who were in Libya were [freedom fighters] why they had the best and most advanced country in Africa. These people liked their president and were happy. A quick search for ISIS in Libya will show that these were not freedom fighters but ISIS all along. .

    Yes, the United States strategy has been to destabilize the MidEast in support of rebels who certainly did not have our best interests at heart.

    I just hope Obama doesn't get brave enough to tangle with Putin militarily, now that Obama is trashing our military.

    Did some research on 'Veterans Today'. 'Agency WIKI' and 'Sitejabber' were pretty negative about VT. They say VT articles usually lack evidence. Just saying-

    Yes Corie this is the big question, imo better the devil you know at this stage of the civil war, removing Assad will simply create a power vacuum and more instability.
