The US Train, coordinate and share intelligence With their vetted moderate rebels, who than hand this over to ISIS.
You have been repeating this claim for months now. If it is true, why send 10,000 uniformed American troops?

You mean Russian is bombing NATO?
No. For the umpteenth time, even if Russia were bombing Turkey, it would not be bombing NATO. NATO is a treaty, not a country.

There you go contradicting yourself again! If ISIS is an American operation, America ha already conquered Syria. Meanwhile, Russia continues to churn the area, forcing refugee to head for Europe. All the mirrors and smoke coming from the Kremlin cannot hide what is really going on there. How does it feel supporting a man who deliberately inflicts suffering on innocents in order to further his goals?

I think now it is pretty clear Assad is going to be forced to go. Iran is reported to be pulling out. This would only be likely if the Russian were giving up Assad. Putin announced that Russia was now flying air support and supplying the Free Syrian Army in coordination with the coalition. Later one of Putins people says Putin was mistaken they are not supplying the FSA just flying air support for them. No doubt after Assad freaked out from the earlier report. Russia wants out of Syria, it can not maintain this operation for long and things have not gone near as well as hoped. It is likely the Russians and the opposition will be coming to an agreement where Assad goes but, Russia gets an arms deal with the new Syrian coalition government.
