President Barack Obama’s weak foreign policy is allowing Russia to target and kill troops trained and supported by the United States. And there doesn’t seem to be any concern that the Obama Administration is going to do anything about it.
According to the Associated Press, Russian jets carried out a second day of strikes in Syria Thursday, with targets including a rebel group trained and armed by the United States.
Russian Defense Ministry Igor Konashenkov said in televised comments that Russian aircraft damaged or destroyed 12 targets in Syria. Officials acknowledged that unidentified groups were being targeted as well as ISIS.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said airstrikes in the central province of Hama on Thursday hit locations of the U.S-backed rebel group, Tajamu Alezzah. The British group said Tajamu Alezzah was also targeted on Wednesday.
Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Thursday that Russia was going after a “list” of other groups.
Asked Thursday whether Putin was satisfied with the way the Russian campaign was going, Peskov said it was “too early” to say.
With American and allied airstrikes daily, and now Russian warplanes in the Syrian airspace, the war is taking on a dangerous new dimension.
Russian officials reportedly warned the Americans “via confidential channels” of where they planned to strike, but the Americans did nothing.
Khaled Khoja, head of the Syrian National Council opposition group, said that Russian airstrikes in four areas, including Talbiseh, killed 36 civilians, with five children among the dead.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry said it fully supports Russian airstrikes in Syria.
The ministry’s spokeswoman, Marzieh Afkham, said the “Islamic Republic of Iran considers military action by Russia… a step toward fighting terrorism and toward resolving the current crisis” in Syria.

U. S. Interests? What a laugh! The only interest they have with us is to get weapons to kill Assad’s people, after which, they will turn them on Israel and us! Since our pansy of a POTUS won’t do anything, at least Putin is doing something about ISIS, and could that be why U.S. born and other foreign fighters are leaving the field, because they know Putin will not play ”PATTY CAKE” when dealing with an enemy?
.
I SAY, LET PUTIN KILL THEM ALL, AND LET GOD SORT OUT THE GOOD FROM THE BAD!
thats right. they’re cia proxies aka isis and we are actually supporting them. get the facts straight russia is doing the right thing. don’t believe that idiot mccain or lindsey graham. they would march us into a firing squad if they had their way. we have elected psychopathic idiot leaders to rule over us…….
Our sophisticated sissy can’t stand up to a real man. He was bitch slapped yet again and our country, what little is left of it, will soon experience the power of Russia and China as they ready for WW III! I hope that all of those mentally disordered liberals that supported this Devil’s Advocate are ecstatic with their Hope and Change and Transformation to AMERIKA! REVOLUTION will be the SOLUTION! mInr, NSA!
O sent money to these enemies to fight Assad in spite of the fact that Assad’s people voting him in again. He protects Christians and Jews, so O has to send our money and our weapons to these so-called Freedom Fighters who will kill us as well, whether Christian, Jewish, or infidels as they see us. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so go Putin! A man of character and courage and caring for his country and Syria. Too bad, we have a man in the WH who has no character nor courage, and never has cared for America nor Syria. Too bad that Egypt will not kidnap him and Hillary and treat them to the punishment all traitors should suffer!
The US had no intention of destroying ISIS, they are the US’s proxy army. The only plan that the US had was to remove Assad and replace him with a US approved puppet. There are few “good rebels” left, they went over to ISIS and took their US supplied arms with them. As far the “Syrian Observatory for Human Rights” they are an NGO financed by billionaire internationalist George Soros. From Ferguson to Ukraine, where ever there is turmoil in the streets you’ll find Soros’s minions at work doing such humanitarian things like teaching the proper way to make a Molotov cocktail, etc.
look at it this way,,,the more wild-eyed crazies that putin kills that is much less that we have to kill when the ruskies leave… IF IT IS NOT A RADIOACTIVE LAKE…
Robert – Don’t you mean “If they leave”?
It helps to understand that the “Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights” is a CIA/MI6/NATO propaganda organization that publishes distorted information, in addition to lies. In addition to the reported, 36 civilians with five children, who were “reported” to have been killed, many more families who house and support CIA/MOSSAD-ISIS terrorists will be killed, along with children in their dwellings. All terrorist supporting families have been warned, and know they are targeted.
Absolutely correct! This “Syrian Observatory for Human Rights” is actually run by a Syrian exile who lives in Coventry (!) and runs the whole operation from his home. He also hates Assad religiously. Add that all up and you have the perfect source for objective and unbiased news!
This “pussy” in charge, will be the downfall of this ONCE great Nation of ours… And the ‘Devilcrats’ will just suck up to this thing called, da “Prez”…
This reminds me of “Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf”, and the answer is no-one because this President doesn’t frighten anyone, especially Vladimir! Just imagine how frightened he would be of Hillary! God help us!
This POS most call president has been doing nothing to rid the earth of ISIS because he does not want to hurt his fellow Muslims. That is why Putin has taken over the fighting in Syria. Of course, Putin will ensure that Assad does not lose his regime and thus will bomb anyone trying to take his regime out. That includes the CIA backed rebels fighting to overthrow Assad. Obama is such a foreign policy winnie that Putin knows he has free reign in saving Assad.
Today, Obama referred to the shooting in Oregon by calling for a ban on fire arms and failed to mention the shooter; who probably is a Muslim from Los Angeles, California. The reason I say this is because the shooter asked the victims what was their religion? If they said christian, he shot them in the head. Its not guns who shoot people, it is people who shoot people with guns. Until liberals understand this, there will always be a problem in the United States. Gun control will only result in the lawless ones having fire arms. Wasn’t the college where the killings happened, a “no gun zone?” Even the School Resource Officer did not carry a weapon. How stupid is this? Only liberals understand why?
Well said, Bob. Why can’t reasonable people see that the gun cannot do a thing without someone behind it pulling the trigger. None of my guns have ever got up and started firing at anything, in fact they stay where they are put until I pick them up. I just don’t understand their reasoning!!!!
Putin also has a very sensible policy for dealing with “home grown terrorists”, Russians fighting for ISIS. His position is “We don’t want them to come back, we’d rather just bomb them while they are there fighting with ISIS!”
Meanwhile in the West it’s like “How do we show understanding and properly integrate them into society to make sure they don’t radicalize anyone?”
Now which approach works better I wonder?
Everyone in the USA must fight to retain their right to bear arms! Without that right the western world is looking at One World Government of the Elite! This message must be passed to all who love democracy and it would help tremendously if the word was passed about the infiltration of virtually all political parties by the Elite, and the group of 300, in order to sway things their way!
These are good days for Russia. They are quickly building power in the Middle East and destroying American-backed fighters. In the end Russia becomes stronger and the U.S. becomes inconsequential. Thanks President Obama, you are managing to squander America’s greatness.
The subterfuge of the USA was amplified prior to WWII, then, US power seekers collaborated with NAZI leaders. The Dulles brothers and Operation Paperclip, 1945-1952, secreted over 10,000 NAZI into the US using falsified passports & family histories. Details in Annie Jacobsen´s “Operation Paperclip; The Secret Intelligence Program That Brought NAZI Scientist To America,” available from amazon and other sources. The GHWBush family´s roots preceded WWII and assisted to finance the NAZI subterfuge. It has not stopped.

And not to forget the Rothchilds Financial contribution to Hitler to take over the National Socialist Party the forerunners to the Nazi Party!
I’m just waiting for Obama to announce US air strikes to defend ISIS against Russia. It really is getting that ridiculous.
Meanwhile Turkey, a NATO country that bombs Kurds fighting against ISIS, has slammed Russia for bombing ISIS. Welcome to the Twilight Zone!
hi everybody! isis(5 years ago) acronym for israel secret intelligence service. obama hi jacked the name to foster a war in syria.
russian intelligence has a list of names of 87,000 islamic terrorists (idiots) which was offered to obama regime and interpol. both agencies refused the list.saying that ‘it is not politically viable at this time’. these idiots..sorry terrorists are and have been mingling with the flood of refugees coming into europe. one of these was in the usa and shot 9 people after the aforesaid offer to obama.
when questioned about the shooting which could have been prevented..obama gave the same answer as before.. russia and israel have closed their borders to refugees. a few weeks ago us secretary of state john kerry had high level talks with v. putin in the kremlin about obama. why? two weeks ago top c.i.a. intelligence had talks with russian counterparts, in the kremlin, about obama…why? reason : both u.s. officials are very concerned about obamas behaviour..he is erratic in comment and decision making. the syrian ‘conflict’ follows the same pattern as other wars: iraq, desert war, afghanistan etc. iran wants to sell gas to europe via a new pipeline which the russians will build for the iranian government. this pipeline will traverse syria and end up in europe somewhere. now the americans don’t like this idea at all lol..so they perform their usual trick of destabilisation of syria ..and the islamic idiots go on the warpath as it were, funded by guess who? so we get a hotchpotch of ‘news’ about rebels, freedom fighters, refugees etc. same old story..but now, this time..different ending. this war is too close to russia and involves his properly elected mate whatever his name is..the pres. of syria. the russians are blasting the daylights out of the ‘idiots’..who strangley have us marines in their army. these total wankers(the idiots) are slaughtering christans at a great rate..estimates as high as 20,000 . mr o bama is on his own warpath..his intention is to islamicise america.asap. but unintended consequences look like undoing his little plot. his own demos and repubs are on red alert..this man is a supernova villain.and americans are becoming aware of this. oh well we in the land of oz are doing strange things too. the federal police stopped a young jerk from leaving australia to join the ‘idiots’. he is being charged with something or other. it would have been better to have let him go to syria and get his head blown off. el finisimo. i hope that has not been too boring:-) i just love typing. next episode on the way..cheerio
A lot of truth in there and it is reflected in the reasons for invading Afghanistan – the need for a (commercial) oil pipeline from one of the northern “Stans” to the Indian Ocean!
