US Refuses to Help Russia Fight ISIS
As expected, the Pentagon says it will not cooperate with Russia in the fight against ISIS. The fight to topple the evil dictatorship of Bashar al-Assad must continue!
In a moving display of solidarity and international friendship, U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter said yesterday that the United States will not cooperate with Russia in the fight against ISIS and other terrorist groups. According to Carter, the U.S. is still deeply butthurt about Russia targeting friendly, CIA-trained yoga instructors operating in Syria. CBS reports that Carter: said the U.S. will limit its discussions with Russia to basic, technical talks about efforts to ensure that flights over Syria are conducted safely and, “That's it.”
“Despite what the Russians say, we have not agreed to cooperate with Russia, so long as they continue to pursue mistaken strategy and hit these targets,” Carter told reporters during a news conference in Rome with Defense Minister Roberta Pinotti.
The United States, Carter said, is not prepared to cooperate with a strategy of Russia's that is “tragically flawed.”Carter's comments came a day after Russian Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly Antonov complained about the narrow scope of the U.S. talks and said the Russians want broad discussions on international cooperation between Russia and the U.S.-led coalition fighting ISIS.
Here's a quick recap of Russia's first week in Syria: ISIS fighters are now fleeing for their lives; weapon depots and communication centers have completely destroyed; huge gains against ISIS positions have been made by the Syrian Army.
Yeah, this is clearly not a strategy that is going to work.
