Russia invades ...

Hopefully Russia will be able to do better than the US has done since it started to think about pretending to try to fight ISIS in July 2014.




SAGAN: We are releasing vast quantities of carbon dioxide, increasing the greenhouse effect. It may not take much to destabilize the Earth's climate, to convert this heaven, our only home in the cosmos, into a kind of hell.

The fact that ISIL has set off a wave of terror in many nations instead of fighting in Syria gives me an idea how Syria, Iran, and Russia are doing.

Russia has called its long-range *bear" bomber and navy-based cruise missiles into the fray. In the space of time that American and France flew 15 sorties, Russia flew about 150.

600 terrorists killed in Russian cruise missile strike in Syria - Defense Ministry

Quote:

The Russian fleet in the Caspian Sea has launched 18 cruise missiles, hitting seven terrorist targets in Syria on Friday, Russian Defense Minster Sergey Shoigu has reported to President Vladimir Putin.

“On November 20, the warships of the Caspian Fleet launched 18 cruise missiles at seven targets in the provinces of Raqqa, Idlib and Aleppo. All targets were hit successfully,” he said.

The last time the Caspian Fleet took part in the anti-terror operation in Syria was on October 7.

Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) are suffering huge losses as a result of the Russian offensive, Shoigu said, adding that data on the ground shows that the flow of terrorists arriving in Syria has decreased

, while more and more militants are fleeing the warzone to head north [TURKEY} and south-west [JORDAN- and it's about time somebody besides Putin calls out these terrorist-supporting fuckers-SIGNY]

Over the past four days, Russian air forces have conducted 522 sorties, deploying more than 100 cruise missiles and 1,400 tons of bombs of various types, the minister stated.

He added that a strike with multiple cruise missiles in the province of Deir ez-Zor had killed more than 600 militants.

Meanwhile, having been embarrassed by the photos that Putin shared at the G20 of huge ISIL oil-convoys which the "anti-ISIL" efforts of the USA just happened to overlook, the USA got its rear in gear and (finally!) struck at ISIL oil assets:

Quote:

ISTANBUL — Intensifying pressure on the Islamic State, United States warplanes for the first time attacked hundreds of trucks on Monday that the extremist group has been using to smuggle the crude oil it has been producing in Syria, American officials said.

According to an initial assessment, 116 trucks were destroyed in the attack, which took place near Deir al-Zour, an area in eastern Syria that is controlled by the Islamic State.

Since the USA doesn't share videos of its air strikes, here is a Russian video which will give you an idea of the size of these convoys:

Wow, according to Russian state run media it sounds like Russia will have ISIL all mopped up by turkey (heh) day.
Thanks Russia!

Keep that one warm. According to Russia, it will take bout 6 months. I'll let you know when the thanks become appropriate. At that point, you probably should, because it will be no thanks to the USA, France, or NATO when that day comes. (Yanno, it's funny- this is like a replay of WWII.)

Quote:

Oh, and thanks for the ironic juxtaposition! Priceless.
Russia isn't "building" a nation with bombs, it's destroying one (ISIL). That's ALL you can do with bombs- destroy things.

Would juxtaposition also be considered subjective posting?

Go comrade Troll. It's funny watching you trip all over yourself praising Russia. It shows the rest of us were correct when we outed you a long time ago as having a very pro Russian agenda.

I am on the floor laughing reading how we should all thank our lucky stars for Russia and be prepared to thank them. It doesn't get any better than that.

I think people appreciate Russia's approach to ISIL far more than they appreciate the USA's ... or yours. Your approach sounds a lot like coddling to me.

So my suggestion that because of Paris this might be the perfect opportunity for NATO to go full force into Syria, is coddling to you. Talk about selective memory.

Russia bombing people indiscriminately is what you're about which is revealed in your posts praising every thing it does. What a hypocrite. In thread after thread here blasting anyone who is not a Russian ally of being engaged in unhuman behaviors, posting anything negative about them you can find on the internet. What a piece of scum you are.

Where I come from and you claim to we have many terms to describe people like you. Today lying sack of shit comes to mind.

The armed Forces carry out air operation of retribution aimed at destruction of leaders of terrorist organizations and their supporters, the of their disruption of control systems and logistics, as well as the destruction of military facilities and oil and gas infrastructure of ISIL. To this end, the composition of the aviation group has been increased twice and brought to 69 airplanes.

143 sorties are being conducted daily.

The Naval group consists of 10 ships, 6 of them are in the Mediterranean Sea. On November 20, the ships of the Caspian flotilla completed 18 launches of cruise missiles at 7 targets in provinces of Raqqa, Idlib and Aleppo. All targets have been destroyed.

In total, during air operations strategic and operational-tactical aircraft carried out 522 sorties, 101 air-and sea-based were launched, 1400 tons of bombs were dropped for various purposes. In total 826 enemy targets were destroyed.

The main efforts are concentrated on undermining the financial-economic base of ISIS. 15 storage and oil refining facilities and 525 auto-tankers were destroyed.

Supply to the black market of 60,000 tons of oil per day has been interrupted, and the terrorists missed 1.5 million dollars daily.

At the same time the elimination of the gangs and their leaders is continuing.

23 training bases for the militants,
19 factories for the production of weapons and explosives,
47 warehouses with ammunition and material resources,


as well as other objects have destroyed. This ensures successful operations by Syrian government forces in Aleppo, Idlib, mountain Latakia and Palmyra.

According to the data of objective control, the number of people coming to the territory of Syria has been reduced and the flow of militants fleeing the country has been increased in Northern and South-Western directions.

Gangs are suffering significant losses. As a result of cruise missile strikes on one of the targets near Deir-ez-Zor more than 600 militants have been eliminated.

In General, during operation air strikes and cruise missiles strikes were carried out from the waters of the Mediterranean and Caspian seas from a distance of 1500 kilometers, the aircraft took off from airbases on the territory of Russia and Syria.

From the Caspian Sea side 29 long-range aircraft carried out air and cruise missile strikes.

The flight range of Tu-160 during the completion of combat objectives in the Mediterranean Sea amounted to more than 13 000 kilometers.

According to the directions of the Supreme Commander the organising of interaction with the armed forces of France has begun.

All objectives are completed. The armed Forces have moved to the next phase of the operation.




Which is - what? Moving in fast interceptors to protect Assad from NATO?

'G' - "so as long as you drop bombs on OTHER people it's ok"

Signym has never said never bomb. The phrase repeated dozens of times by now - which you've failed to read, understand, or tell the truth about - is COUNT THE BODIES. So let me explain it to you: if more people are dying because of you than without you, it's a bad thing.
