Dozens of Russians Are Believed Killed in U.S.-Backed Syria Attack
MOSCOW — Four Russian nationals, and perhaps dozens more, were killed in fighting between pro-government forces in eastern Syria and members of the United States-led coalition fighting the Islamic State, according to Russian and Syrian officials.
A Syrian military officer said that about 100 Syrian soldiers had been killed in the fighting on Feb. 7 and 8, but news about Russian casualties has dribbled out only slowly, through Russian news organizations and social media.
Much about the attack and the associated casualties has been obscured in the fog of war. For reasons that remain unclear, Syrian government troops and some Russian nationals appear to have attacked a coalition position, near Al Tabiyeh, Syria.
The attack occurred in the vicinity of Deir al-Zour, a strategic, oil-rich territory that is coveted by the Syrians. Most of the fatalities were attributed to an American airstrike on enemy columns that was called in by American-backed Kurdish soldiers who believed they were under attack.
At no point, an American military spokesman said, was there any chance of direct conflict between United States and Russian forces.

So Russian mercenaries are attacking US and Kurdish forces in Syria, who are fighting against Syrian forces, ISIS amd our NATO allies the Turks.
What could go wrong here?

And this comes after ISIS downing a Russiam Mig last week or the week before, and the pilot letting off a grenade before the ISIS miltants could capture him (no mention of how many ISIS may have been killed first, but they're expendable..).
No need for Russia and the US to come to blows, when they're both facing multiple enemies -- and ISIS an enemy to both.

No need for us to be there at all.
There are too many moving parts.

Indeed...
No need for the US or Russia..
The US could be helping Israel, while Russia could stay back in some place like Jordan or Iran.
And just let Syria self-destruct -- the fall of Damascus was foretold thousands of years ago; and now it seems more and more inevitable.. Just a matter of when, not if...

The Russians are there at the request of Syrian govt... the US have no legal justification for any military action in Syria...

The Americans are there at the request of the Kurds I guess, but I'm fine with bringing them home.
And according to this story, those Russians were not acting at the behest of the Russian government, but I'm pretty sure everyone knows that's bull.

When are you going to actually start to learn from history?
At the moment, what is being waged here, is a war of propaganda and beliefs, ideals.
At the moment, the west is losing this. For example, the UN, has a majority of undemocratic totalitarian nations that dominate
If the US loses ground in the Middle East against Russia, then more and more problems will come the way to the US itself.
A Proxy war has gone on for years between Iran and Saudi, where the Iranians are gaining ground. Israel has always been the best check against any further harm coming to the US
If Israel falls, to Iran (which I doubt) Then the US should be worried, as Russia holds dominions over them and will control the whole Middle East. They tried this under Communism and failed.
It was Israel that destroyed Syria's attempts at a Nuke weapon, by destroying their facilities that was creating this.
They also did this to Iraq under Saddam. The World condemned them, but do you know who secretly praised the Israeli's?
Iran
Israel, is the one factor that has stop any power gaining dominance in the Middle East, which so many countries are volatile
You rightly worry about the loss of Us armed forces in the Middle East, as you should be, but its sadly needed to ensure that war does not end up on your soil
Just look at number 3 on the list of complaints of Al-qaeda, as to why, they are at war with the US and the West. That we changed stance on the Genocide of East Temor
That you have to either get into line with these islamists of face their consequences
Maybe you want to surrender to threats, which is certainly not the American way, but this is their way. Which they want you to buckle under and think its not your problem, in order that they can gain control of others and oppress and abuse them.
Just imagine that, its the Nazi's over again say, we have no right to stop them murdering people at will
You can bow down to that, I wont
Only then when the west becomes more isolated to this threat and you complained lives were lost, will you then sit up at listen and then it will be too late
Its a must that the US and others counter this threat

Who's surrendering? This is a civil war within Syria, Yemen and Libya. They are not attacking us.
It would be different if there was one country invading another, but that's not the case. In a war, one has to pick a side. We don't have a side to pick because we have allies fighting each other.
We have been involved in Syria over 5 years. Nothing is getting accomplished except getting more Syrians killed.

The Nazi's were not attacking you at the beginning of WW2, but sooner or later you were involved because some countries have a bigger domination than you can percieve
Are you so utterly naive?
We have accomplished nothing in Syria, because of Obama
He was like Chamberlain, an appeaser
Where did their appeasement get them?
It only strengthened their enemies.
This is the copout answer by you
How many allies died to achieve defeating Nazism?
Do you want to give in now?
Answer me this
How many Vietmanese, considering they suffered under the US are a threat to the US and causing terrorism?

It's a civil war, like Vietnam.
It's none of our business and we are not making it any better.
If you want to go fight in Syria, be my guest. Who are you going to fight against? The FSA, Hezbollah, The Syrian Army, The Kurds, The Turks, Iran, Russia or Russian mercenaries.
Have a good time.

Is it none of your business
Was WW2 none of your business?
Seriously?
Your whole argument is based geographically
When Iran and Russia hold sway their and the US faces more terrorism
Is it then your buisness?
How long does it take for you to fell hit on the head, when its been going on for years?
People like you do not actually care
You claim to care, but dont, you have to been born between imaginary lines

Our involvement creates more terrorism for us. It's called blowback.
Do you ever wonder why no one has tried to fly planes into buildings in Switzerland?

We left.
Two years later the war ended.
There is no need for terrorism.
You would think you would learn watching the French and the US in Vietnam and the Brits and Soviets in Afghanistan.
There are places on this planet that need to sort out their own messes. If they attack you by all means, defend yourself. But if it's an internal fight, best to stay out of it.

Your argument is on that being involved creates terrorism
Where is it from the Vietnam war?
It was a long war with many war crimes
Many Vietmanese people live in the US and France
Where is the terrorism from them?

We are not out of Iraq. We are now in Syria. The people of the Middle East can't stand us, and think our meddling has caused a great deal of their problems. That may be a slight exaggeration on their part, but it's how they feel.
Our foreign policy is the greatest recruitment tool for radical Islam.

Germany declared war on the US.
And we were attacked by their ally, Japan.
Libya, Iraq, and Syria are not Germany. They are not a threat to anyone except themselves. Assad, Hussein and Gadaffi are/were maniacal lunatics, that are actually better than many of their enemies. Enemies that are running around with hardware paid for by the American taxpayer. They kept radical Islam in check. They were not nice about that, but we have never really been bothered by authoritarian regimes. We helped put the Shah (an authoritarian) back in power. The blowback from that was our embassy being taken over in 1979, and many of the Iranian people thinking we were the great Satan for meddling in their affairs.

Really?
Like the Kurds and Jews?
Your understanding here is what is warped.
I mean its like saying our meddling in WW2 caused the Jews to hate us
We freed Iraq from Saddam. You explain to me, how in anyway, that was a bad thing, after he murdered half a million?

We never left Iraq. We were there "advising".
Plus we bombed Libya under Obama.
We have been arming all sorts of people in Syria. Those arms wind up in the wrong hands and kill innocent Syrians. The people there know that, and are less than appreciative when they see ISIS using American arms on their children.
The Syrians have been at war now for 5 years. Had we left them alone, that war would have been over by now.
It's going to take a few years, or a decade to undo the damage we have done trying to bring "democracy" to an area that want's no part of it.

Oh, we freed the Iraqis from Saddam, and the replacement hasn't been an improvement. There hasn't been peace there since we invaded. The infrastructure sucks. Disease is rampant and a good chunk of their country was run by ISIS. The rest was run by corrupt politicians on the take and living off of the American taxpayer. We have sunk enough blood and treasure into that shithole region and have done nothing to improve it. Europe is being over run with refugees trying to get out of that gigantic mess.

1) Wrong
2) What did we do wrong in Nigeria then, with the case of Boko Haram?
Can you explain that, or the multitude of other Islamic extremist groups that have murdered many people including many Muslims?
Can you explain what Wahhabist groups have been committing terrorism long before the US was seen as a super power?
You see there is nothing worse than people giving excuses for people commiting wrongs.
Its like trying to claim, that over2 million German women deserved to be raped, due to the murder and rape of countless Russia women, by German soldiers
3) It is bad that arms handed up in the wrong hands.
That is your argument against Assad murdering and gassing hundreds of thousands to death is it?
Seriously?
4)We were not involved in the war in the first 3 years actually.
So your point is redundent. Had we been involved and ousted Assad, there would not have been 9 million displaced and refugees, half a million dead and a million wounded. Based off this, there would not have been the rise of the Far Right of this
5) Its clearly going to take a century for you to understand anything
We never caused anything wrong in Syria or Iraq, two monsters did that, and you look to blame the west?
Seriously?
Apologist idiots like you is what is the problem,

What you said made no sense, and I didn't ask you a question, I corrected you. The US got involved because Germany declared war on them.

The US has forces in Iraq which are helping to fight ISIS.

ISIS captured parts of Iraq, after US forces left

You appear to be taking the stance that countries should interfere in other countries even if they're not involved. The US was involved in WW2 - because Germany declared war on them.
Resorting to abuse means you know that you messed up.

Exactly we sat it out for 2 years because our general policy was to stay out of those gigantic messes that seemed to blow up every 20 years.
If Japan had not bombed us we may never had entered.

So you now admit that the US got involved because Germany declared war on them - they didn't just decide to attack Germany out of the blue. Well done.

Many dictators have been disposed
What you should be asking is what happened next.
In Iraq, both Saudi and Iran, engaged in a proxy war.
The people of Iraq were then denied freedom
Is that your reason to deny people freedom?
Do you see how fucking dumb you are?

Actually, Roosevelt was already helping the allies and was looking to get involved sooner

Correct. Then Hitler decided to declare war on Germany, even though their ally, Japan, hadn't been attacked by the US - it was the other way round.

If, by Nazis, you mean Germany, the Germans declared war on the United States on December 11, 1941, under the terms of the Tripartite Pact (even though Japan was the aggressor at Pearl Harbor). Up until then Congress had passed four Neutrality Acts, keeping the US out of Europe's war.

You can't bomb people into freedom, if that's not what they want. If that were the case, the middle East would be teeming with freedom.
