US an Arab allies begin airstrikes in Syria

I wonder if this Khurasan group consists of the terrorists from Pakistan? any association with Umer Khurasani who are talking about naming Afghanistan, Pakistan and India collectively as Khurasan.



if we were not fighting our own TTP terrorists then I would have loved to see Pakistani forces involved in the destruction of ISIS.

Khurasan same shit as ISIS and Nusra, the US probably made it up calling them focused on attacking the US & Europe so the citizens will support military action. No one heard of this group and suddenly in a few days it comes to existence called worse then ISIS, sounds fake.

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم
ستصالحون الروم صلحاً آمناً، فتغزون أنتم وهم عدوًا من ورائـكم ، فتنصرون وتغنمون وتسلمون ثم ترجعون ....

could this be the prophecy ?
 
Dear ISIS,

Please meet the world's most advanced warplane.

David Blair outlines the Arab coalition supporting US air strikes against Isil:

Five Arab countries are supporting the US air campaign against Isil targets in Syria, according to the Pentagon. But only Jordan has confirmed that its aircraft have actually carried out air strikes. All of the others have kept silent, raising doubts over whether they are flying bombing missions, or confining their role to offering bases and opening their airspace.
The very fact that Arab countries are part of the coalition at all, however, allows America to demonstrate that the anti-Isil offensive is not simply a Western campaign in the Middle East.
The states named by the Pentagon are as follows:

Saudi Arabia
With 305 combat aircraft, Saudi Arabia possesses the most powerful air force in the Arab world. The backbone of the kingdom’s striking power is provided by two squadrons of US-supplied F-15 Eagles and three of British-supplied Tornados. This makes Saudi Arabia ideally placed to operate alongside a Western coalition.
Whether the Royal Saudi Air Force has actually struck targets inside Syria is unclear. So far, the kingdom’s rulers have kept silent. They have traditionally been deeply reluctant to deploy their own forces in Western-led military ventures. The last time this happened was in 1991 when Saudi Arabia joined the coalition that expelled Iraq’s army from Kuwait. But this decision was relatively uncontroversial because the kingdom’s own security was directly threatened by Iraqi forces.
King Abdullah has repeatedly urged America to intervene in Syria, but he may not feel able to deploy his own strike aircraft in this cause. If the kingdom has not flown bombing missions against Isil, its part in the offensive may be limited to opening its airspace for US aircraft.

United Arab Emirates
The UAE has 201 combat aircraft organised into three squadrons of US-supplied F-16s and three of French Mirages. Last month, the country showed its ability to carry out air strikes when the UAE bombed Islamist militias in Libya’s capital, Tripoli. In 2011, the UAE also joined Britain and France in the campaign that toppled Col Gaddafi’s regime.
But the UAE shares the traditional Arab reluctance to join Western-led military offensives. Whether its air force is carrying out combat sorties in Syria is unclear. If not, the UAE’s role may be confined to opening its air space and allowing the US to use al-Minhad military air base near Dubai.

Jordan
With only 85 combat aircraft, the Royal Jordanian Air Force ranks among the smallest in the region. Yet it remains highly capable – and King Abdullah leads the only Arab government which has publicly confirmed that its aircraft are striking Isil targets in Syria alongside the US.
But this comes as little surprise. Of the five Arab states named by the Pentagon as supporting the offensive, only Jordan is directly threatened by Isil fighters. The terrorist movement has captured the area of Iraq along Jordan’s eastern frontier. Hence King Abdullah can argue that Jordan’s participation is essential for national security.

Qatar
Made rich by the revenues of gas and oil, Qatar has laid ambitious plans to re-equip its air force. At present, however, the country possesses only 18 combat aircraft – 12 French Mirages and six antiquated training jets. This makes it highly unlikely that Qatar is flying bombing missions in Syria.
But Qatar also hosts the regional headquarters of US Central Command and al-Udeid air base, which serves as the hub for all American air operations in the Middle East. So the campaign against Isil is almost certainly being coordinated and controlled by US commanders based in Qatar. Yet that is probably the limit of the country’s participation.

Bahrain
With only 39 combat aircraft, Bahrain’s air force is one of the weakest in the region. The fact that the Pentagon named Bahrain as part of the anti-Isil coalition is a surprise. The country possesses only one ground attack squadron consisting of 12 antiquated F-5 aircraft, a model designed in the 1950s. This means that Bahrain’s air force is almost certainly incapable of striking targets in Syria. Instead, Bahrain’s participation is probably limited to opening its air space and allowing the US to use military facilities on the island, notably the headquarters of the Fifth Fleet.

wow...this just goes to show the amount of control/influence the U.S has over the middle east/Arab world. and the list doesnt even include others like Egypt(which gets most of its weapons/arms from the U.S), kuwait, Turkey, Oman, Yemen, etc...
The U.S is indeed the most powerful country/empire in human history,:usflag: More powerful than even our former empire i would say.:D
 
well, there were reports of Qasem Soleimani on the frontlines at Amerli, fighting alongside US SF but not sure what to believe, so much propaganda on both sides.

either way, arming the "rebels" will end up worse than their Afghanistan mujhadeen misadventure back in the 80s, some people never learn :sick:

Implying it was a mistake.
 
Saudis don't have the knowledge or experience? So being the number one country in Air exercises in the world totally does not count does it? We went up against the French in their Rafale with our oldest F-15s and we came out of it with a tie. GCC is not the rest of the Arab world. And if you are talking about experience, Saudi Arabia shouldered 12% of all Desert Storm sorties, if you are talking about No-fly-zones we shouldered 34% of the sorties. We do have experience. And Knowledge, and motivation.

You just choose to ignore all of that out of a sense of pre-programmed grandiose, which seriously need to be checked.

I love to believe that, and I sincerely wish that what you said above is true, but all the information that came from the area you mentioned was carried by the US and Nato fighters...
