90% Of Russian Airstrikes In Syria Have Not Targeted ISIS by watts75: 9:49pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
Russia said it started its bombing campaign against ISIS in early October, but it turned out that ISIS was not Russia's primary target. The vast majority of Russian airstrikesabout 80% have hit other rebel groups like the FSA and those who are supported by the West and those who have fought against ISIS. Even after Russia admitted that the Metrojet airliner which crashed in Egypt was brought down by ISI, in response Russia launched cruise missiles into FSA held territory in Syria and not in Raqqa which is the spiritual HQ of ISI. The only group fighting ISIS that Russia have not targeted is the YPK and PKK. On the other hand, the YPK are perhaps ISIS worst nightmare, and guess who is targeting them? TURKEY. So the only two groups fighting ISIS are FSA targeted by Russian YPK targeted by Turkey Then who is targeting ISIS? surely not the West, because I can't still understand how only 1 month of Air strikes brought down Saddam Hussein government during the Gulf War and 2yrs of America plus NATO air strikes have done nothing on ISIS. |

watts75:stop classifying Terrorist into good and bad..the FSA u're attributing to be moderate group consist of different brigades/fighting units some of whom are ally to al-nusra and daesh...if it LOOKS like a terrorist,if it ACTS like a terrorist,if it FIGHTS like a terrorist,if it WALKS like a terrorist,then its a TERRORIST, and therefore a legitimate target,not a f*ucking moderate as labeled by the west... 4 Likes 1 Share |

Missy89:Hamas is a terrorist organization..hezbollah as a political unit isnt a terrorist organization,but its military wing has been declared a terrorist unit by the E.U...i see hezbollah military wing as a Resistance Militia..hezbollah isnt in the business of imposing their doctrine on people through violence,neither are they in the business of jihad..unlike other sunni extrimist groups,they are very open to dialouge and compromise..my only problem with hezbollah is their EXTREME anti-isreali stance,which i feel they need to tune down.. 6 Likes 1 Share |

fineguy11:Over 70 countries classify Hezbollah as a terrorist organization and just last month the Arab League denounced Hezbollah and also classified them as a terrorist organisation. If you claim Hezbollah are not extremist but are 'open to dialogue and compromise',then why should you have a problem with the moderate rebels in Syria who are also not extremists,they are simply anti-tyranny opposition groups who are also 'open to dialogue and compromise.

Thread derailment of life! Well since y'all have derailed it, lemme pitch in my own two cents: Hezbollah is a resistance militia purposely set up to resist the Zionist nation of Israel and its theft of Palestine and Arab land. This is the same Hezbollah that humiliated Israel in the 2006 war and is presently fighting alongside the SAA, the IRG abd Russian special forces to root out a myriad of Jihadist groups supported by the despotic regimes of Saudi Arabia, Turkey & others from Syria. This same Hezbollah lives side by side in peaceful coexistence with other such as Christians, Druzes, etc in Lebanon. Isn't it convenient that as Hezbollah is ruining Saudi Arabia' plans in Syria, Saudi Arabia has strong armed other Arab states to label Hezbollah a terrorist group? Going back to the original topic, it will interest you to know that over the past couple of days, the SAA has retaken Palmyra - a historical city ironically lost to ISIS some months into the Hegemon's fake bombing campaign- from ISIS, the very same group that the presstitude media of the West is claiming Russian air strikes isn't targeting. What story hasn't the mendacious western press spun? - Just a fraction of rebels in Syria are jihadists. The rest -like in now democratic and peaceful Libya - are freedom loving fighters! ![]() -Russian is using dumb bombs in Syria -Russian military will face a quagmire in Syria -Russian military nothing more than rusty buckets & archaic aircraft - Russia bombed hospitals in Syria - Columns of Russian armour was reported seen in Eastern Ukraine -Putin ordered MH17 to be shot down& is behind the disappearance of MH370 -Putin is a paedophile -Putin is worth more than $40 billion - Putin's popularity will tank and there will waves of mass protests - and so on and on Well, Russia's brilliant military campaign in Syria ( even secretly admitted in a CIA memo), together with the mumbling and bumbling spokespersons of the Hegemon's State Department has only exposed the duplicity and mendacity of the West and its so called "independent" media which is nothing more than the propaganda mouthpiece of the government.

fineguy11: The evidence hezbollah did it is overwhelming. Hezbollah and iranian leaders are on record admitting it. It is like saying there are no russian troops in ukraine because putin did not claim responsibility. It is simple common sense. All you have to do is look at the evidence. Even iran has admitted to it many times and have a monument of the attack built in tehran. |

Rats caught out in the open swimming in their own lies - the Hegemon State Department literally accuses (again) the Syrian government of colluding with ISIS even as they are the ONLY force defeating them on the ground in Syria ... with Russian support - who despite withdrawing most of their forces is STILL doing more damage to the terrorist organization than Amerika's 1.5 year fake war... Where does the Amerika get these clowns posing as spokesperson from biko?

The Pentagon, the CIA and the White House should get their gaddam story straight! They changing their story all the time is - to be honest - making them all look like a bunch of idieets.... So, OP, in light of ISIS increasingly losing territory and the Pentagon's admission of the efficacy of Russia's campaign - together with the appreciation from the German Foreign Minister and the former US ambassador to Russia- what percentage do you now reckon the Russian airstrikes against ISIS has sprung up to? The lies, the facade, the sham war all falling apart like a pack of cards... Pentagon concedes Russia’s ‘constructive role’ in Syrian ceasefire, fight against ISIS Published time: 29 Mar, 2016 23:37 Get short URL ![]() © Jason Reed © Jason Reed / Reuters 814 Russia is playing a “constructive” role in the Syrian ceasefire, the Pentagon said, adding that it has seen “developments” on the ground. It encouraged Moscow to “continue to focus” on Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), while also using leverage over Assad to stop the war." “It is clear that they have focused more of their military attention on ISIL, we think that’s a good thing,”[/b][/i] Pentagon spokesperson Peter Cook said during a briefing in Washington DC. “They said initially that was their primary goal, was to go after ISIL in Syria and they are doing so now.” Cook added that the US sees “those developments” on the ground, but also hope that the ceasefire in Syria would “ultimately lead to a resolution of the Syrian Civil War.” In this regard, Cook stressed that peace in Syria depends on Bashar Assad and the changes that he as the President is required to make. Since the Syrian conflict unfolded five years ago, the US has been insisting that Assad has to step down as a part of a peaceful resolution to the military conflict, which has given way to a jihadist insurgency. “We're also pushing for the cessation of hostilities that we hope will ultimately lead to a resolution of the Syrian Civil War, but to have that happen will require changes on the part of the Assad regime, and nobody has more leverage, more clout – if you will, than Russia,” Cook said. “We hope that they [Russia] would use that leverage in as constructive fashion as possible, and we would encourage them to do so.” He went on to say that if the Russians “continue to focus their efforts” on Islamic State, this “would be a good thing.” Cook’s comments have marked a significant shift in the Obama administration’s tone towards Russia’s actions in Syria. Last week, the Secretary of State, who traveled to Moscow last week to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, also pointed out Russia’s help in the “strategic interest” of the United States. “Russia is now helping with the cessation of hostilities. And if Russia can help us to actually affect this political transition, that is all to the strategic interest of the United States of America,” Kerry told the CBS show “Face the Nation”. Since Russia started its anti-terror campaign over Syria to assist the Syrian army in September 2015, the US has been accusing Moscow of aiming its actions on anti-Assad rebels and targeting civilians, while providing no sustainable evidence. Yet, assisted by Russian air power, the Syrian troops have been making steady progress in retaking grounds from ISIS. Last week, the Syrian Army achieved one of its major victories after liberating the historic city of Palmyra, or Tadmur. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it had been occupied by jihadists since last May. Until its capture, the city housed some of the world’s best-preserved monuments of antiquity, which had been partially destroyed, including two of Palmyra’s 2,000-year-old temples. The Syrian Army has also managed to force terrorists out of Latakia and the northern part of Aleppo, the country’s biggest city and commercial hub in pre-war times, and mopped up Hama and Homs Provinces in central Syria. 1 Like |

Missy89:Hamas is a terrorist organization NOT to russia but to Israel. That's to tell you that "interest" is something you gotta protect. Israel went inside syria and assasinate an Hezbollah Commander under the watch of Russia deployment. It's not the business of Russia. And Israel have not for once disrupt the activities of Russia in Syria. On the issue of FSA, majorly that group is made up of terrorist-wannabe and terrorists. Al-nusra front also known as Nusra Front(US so-called "moderate" terrorists) have shown us that classification of terrorist differs from countries to countries. PKK is a terrorist group to Turkey(according to turkey) while US, Russia and others aint classifying them thus. |
