As Russia heads into Syria full force, the US and the Russian politicos have wasted no time, trading propaganda. Who knows where lies the truth? The Russians say all the US has been doing is bombing the desert. The US states the Russians are doing everything but targeting ISIS.
One way to break down and cut through the manure, is to detail what we do know, take some of what they say, and apply common sense.
Obama’s big deal has been to say “We will lead from behind”, which when it comes to Syria, that has not worked. One CIA analyst, now retired, remarked Obama wanted to lay back in Syria, see if ISIS would dethrone Assad. Maybe. Then just take out ISIS – whom Obama has called the JV team.
Enter Russia and Putin. Putin said his number one priority was Assad. Not ISIS. So it makes sense that Russia is bombing not ISIS but those who are a threat to Assad – the Syrian US backed rebels.

you could say that because of their failure bring this info. to the people put them in with ISIS. How the Obama can force his Gen. not too reporting treason surprising and allowing Obama to waken are military.
Russia doesn’t want ISIS in his back yard next President Putin is thinking in Syria and Iraq then later in Russia smart move I think God Putin.
Don’t ever question the loyalty of our men and women in uniform! Sorry those explosions were and are real. Just like they’re patriotism. Believe the Russians? Never.
only fools can believe kgb agent- putin bombing not isis bu pipe;lines and civilians along with it.
After listening to obamas lies for seven years I just have to believe Putin. He has never lied to us.
Smh and maybe just maybe if you look real real hard you might just see a mermaid swimming in putins new warm water port

So Gayle Dodge why don’t you go live there if America is the bad guys?
Might want to be a little bit careful while most of you anoint Vlad as your new best buddy.
Russia is also bombing the FSA, leaving radical groups like Al-Nursa that are just as bad as ISIS in power. Russia also seeks to support the Assad regime to maintain access to cheap oil. Bombing ISIS is a PR campaign for Russia.
