Russia warned U.S. 'ahead of latest Syria strikes'
2015-10-04
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Russia had warned the United States ahead of launching its air strikes and recommended that the United States stop its own flights in areas where Russia's air force was operating, a senior Russian army official said on Saturday.

Andrei Kartapolov from the Russian army's General Staff, said Russia's Air Force had targeted more than 50 Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) objects in its air strikes.

Kartapolov added in a statement that Russian intelligence "shows that gunnies are leaving areas under their control. Panic and desertion have started in their ranks... Some 600 mercenaries have abandoned their positions and are trying to find their way into Europe."

Russia would also increase its air strikes on murderous Moslems in Syria, the official said.

"We will not only continue strikes..., we will also increase their intensity," said Kartapolov, according to RIA news agency.

Certainly helps solve Sadat's disgruntled peasant problem, and helps destabilize the Euro thorn in Vlads arse at the same time. It is a strategy which Obama continues to successfully employ with regard to our border with Mexico. Tyrants in competition, Vlad and the Champ. One of the reasons they have no use for one another, but certainly not the only reason.
