U.S. Admits: We Can’t Protect Syrian Allies From Russia’s Bombs

[UKBengali]

According to @Abingdonboy ,USAF will decimate the RUAF and wipe the floor. And looking at the Daily Beast and the Congressman's rant ,it seems otherwise. Maybe the Donald Cook Incident shook the US forces sufficiently.

S-400 will make short work of US fighters - even F-22 pilots will fear the S-400 system.

If the Russians really thought that the US may attack them, then they would have had many more SU-30s
deployed in Syria and also deployed S-400.

US simply does not have the guts to fight a country as powerful as Russia.

Heck, Bashar Al-Assad really creates huge problem in this world.

Well the Russians are in Syria legally as they have been invited by the UN recognised Syrian government.

The US and it's allies are illegally bombing Syrian territory.

Anyway, US has no guts to take on Russia as they know that Putin means business.

Remember Putin stopped US bombing Syria couple of years ago after the chemical weapons incident.

US thought by getting Russia bogged down in Ukraine, that Syria would be ignored by Russia and thus allow US to do anything it wants in Syria.

Putin got back Crimea and its naval base and now helping Assad militarily. Russia winning on both counts. Putin knows US will never get into a military confrontation with Russia, so Russia can do whatever it wants. Sanctions are the only weapon America can use against Russia, not military.

I have bolded the use of vaccuum bombs which are very powerful non-nuclear weapons ,FOAB is an example of the above .

it just says they were accurate, nothing about vacuum bombs or FOAB ?

The ones who are crazy enough to fight any one is only the Muslim. Afghan part 2 is coming if Russia target the opposition forces.

Those huge explosions are primarily vaccuum bombs designed in the 1960's-70's. FOAB,Shmel, is a vacuum bomb ,Vaccuum bomb and thermobaric bombs are very similiar . West refers to it as thermobaric bombs. But Russians say the principles are some bit different.

I remember PDF clowns jumping up and down predicting US would bomb Russia after MH-17 crashed.

These idiots don't understand that Russia can cause ENORMOUS damage to the US mainland despite US having the military advantage. The cost of going to war with Russia is way too high for the US.

damage? more like an extinction level event. They just need to use that ebolapox or superplague weapon to create that event. Their bioweapons will make the movie Resident Evil look like a joke.

it's not about 'guts', it's about a nuclear threshold that nears quickly if ever the US get in a hot war with the Russians.

but they made it through the cold war, they'll manage through this too, in the end the US will have to back off here because why on earth are they supporting these horrible jihadists anyway ? I think most regular people in the US will be glad if Russia cleans up for them and they can get out of the middle east mess.

the Saudis and their terrorist proxy forces should have absolutely 0 say in whatever political compromise there might be in Syria.

the Saudis are responsible for this mess getting as bad at is has, they were responsible for 9/11, largely responsible for radicalizing so many in Pakistan and indeed around the world, it's their fascist ideology which is the fountainhead of almost all the terror in the world, I think Obama realizes that and is in a strategic retreat and disengagement with them now.

fsal qaeda days are numbered, may they all rest in piss.

saw the footage, those structures did seem to instantly collapse, good to see the Russians bring out the sharp blades to kill these disgusting pigs.

Yep,extreme Accuracy is not needed in case of vaccuum bombs. Seems there could be another reason. They suspect that FSA has glonass jammers .So maybe they are resorting to using unguided Vaccuum bombs

glonass specific jammers ? John McCain was frothing earlier about doing an Afghan stinger thing again..

some of the videos were obvious cluster bomblets too, hah, deal with that, al tawheed beard brigade

 

[Hindustani78]

United States is not ready to share intelligence outputs with Russian Federation regarding Syrian opposition and today Pentagon has issued the Statement. This means United States will protect Syrian opposition and the reason is quite simple as the Russians are openly assisting with President Assad , Iran and Hezbullah and even Grand Ayatullah Sistani of Iraq talked about joining against ISIS.

This was more fun when you guys had leaders like Reagan who knew how to dance. The current one just crumbles under pressure.

That is why I am kind of hoping Trump wins the next election. At least he will make things exciting and entertaining..

Obama is a realist who rarely ever does anything rash. He is just doing the best he can given the circumstances. If Bush Jr. had not expended American will over two wars over nothing, maybe the response would have been different.

As for Reagan, he was acting on intelligence that clearly suggested that the Soviet Union just needed a push. The American government of the time kept hiding the intel from the media and the world, giving Reagan the opportunity to come out looking like some kind of intuitive genius (which he was not).

But yes, coming back to the point, America did mess up big-time on this one. Arming shady guys in the Middle East to act as proxies was never going to work out too well. But Russia should learn the same lesson. Part of the reason Obama is doing this is because he wants to see how Russia handles first-hand involvement in this hell hole.

Crimea is back with Russia FOREVER!

Effectiveness of sanctions wane overtime as other big countries (China, India, etc) emerges that provide alternatives.

Even Europe isn't that keen on playing along with sanctions any more. They kept their back channels with Iran going and now American companies are last in line as (if) sanctions are lifted.
