US kills 200 Russians in Syria

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

_____________________

Other reports have it at 100 Russians killed and still others have it at 100 killed, mainly Syrians and perhaps some Russians.

And they didn't attack....they just got a little too close...and got BLASTED.

It has been said many times that Putin will constantly prob for weaknesses...and during the Obama Administration all he found was weakness.

And that when he finds resistance, he backs off.

The only thing we know for sure right now about the event in Syria is that he found some serious bad-ass resistance this time.

Anybody have a guess what's changed?

We think Obama could have been a Muslim; we are almost sure he was a Marxist; we know he was a Pussy.

Trump gifted Syria to Putin and Iran. This was an anamoly.

Syria has been Russia's for decades. We have nothing to gain in Syria and Putin has everything to lose. He would start WWIII to keep it.

The number one reason is the naval base in the city of Tartus. This is Russia's only access to the Mediterranean and that is of vital strategic importance to Russia. Just last year Syria gave Russia territorial sovereignty over the base and now Russia is working to improve the port so it can handle all naval vessels to include aircraft carriers. Russia will not give up this base without a war, most likely a nuclear war.

We need to get out of Syria, we have no winning hand there, there is no outcome that is good for the US.

Russia's ultimate goal is to take Israel's leviathan oil fields. They will not succeed.

They really really want a warm water port and have for many, many years...

That is their secondary goal. The leviathan fields are the primary.

They have oil shale, not oil fields.

We took out a T-72 today, not sure who was manning it. Israel took out an Iranian Gun Emplacement. Unfortunately we are indeed going to War kids.

You do realize a T-72 is nearly 50 years old, right?

The point is that the confrontations are coming daily now, you do know that right?

 

[Dschrute3]

Empire-Building permanent war. When will Americans say enough is enough? We shouldn't be in Syria. Period, end of story.

Fake news, or extremely poor journalism.

 

[Dschrute3]

Get out of Syria. We don't belong there. Period, end of story.

 

[JGalt]

The Russians got their shit pushed in bigly and the mainstream sock-puppet media isn't mentioning a word about it?

Oh, never mind. It doesn't fit in with the narrative of Trump's "Russian collusion."

They're natural gas fields.

I'm calling fake news. Putin would not order Russians to directly attack Americans,


and if he did, it would be a world threatening crisis.

What oil fields?

Natural gas fields. My mistake.

Here I thought it was Obama who did it when Obamas's red line bluff was called in the sand and Obama walked away. Silly me.

Trump has done it also...

Actually there are two MAJOR reasons for Putin to want to control Syria. One is the warm water port as you correctly pointed out.

The other is that Putin has Europe by the short hairs over energy. Pipelines are the way to transport massive energy and right now all the pipelines to Europe are from Russia.

Europe wants to build pipelines from the Arabian Gulf. However, looking at a map, you can see they would have to go through Syria. Assad is blocking the pipeline construction. That is also a major reason that Russia would as you correctly say go to the wall to keep Syria.

I believe they'd invade Syria themselves to keep control over it. That just isn't necessary

The US has found its niche in Europe with liquid natural gas...

And we can thank Obama for letting the Russians into Syria.

How about a reality check. Russian port in Syria was established when Nixon was President almost a half-century ago. Reinforced and upgraded between 2005-2008 during the Bush Administration in response to the invasion of Iraq.

Russia has to park their shitty only aircraft carrier someplace...

Regardless a Reaper drone took one out in Syria.

I was reading about the "Russians" being killed. I didn't realize the US and Russia have hotlines to each other to avoid conflict with each other.

Yep. We let them know ahead of time we were going to send cruise missiles at the airbase. So the Russians in turn told Syria and they moved all their planes

Evidently they forgot some.....

About 20 Syrian jets destroyed in missile strike, defense officials say

That's still way short of a pipeline's capacity and the Democrats are of course impeding natural gas productions to keep us dependent on importing foreign fuels and exporting money
