Have an odd feeling this will be a Russian win, only due to the US being stubborn in their tactics and susceptible to an own goal!

Bit of an early dirty tackle by Russia.

Bomb US backed and CIA trained Tajamu Alezzah Group

This might go to penalties before the 90 mins are up.

The US are supporting/helping the rebels bombing Assad, and the US doesn't agree with Assad bombing them back.

The rebels are inbetween Assad and ISIL so if the rebels beat Assad, ISIL will come in and beat the rebels. So in effect the rebels are doing ISIL's work.

I would suggest that the rebels should to stop launching attacks from civilian areas and get out of Syria.

The France, US and the U.K. don't have a remit to bomb inside Syria and are doing so illegally.

Russia does as Syria have requested their help.

HOWEVER, my belief is that this is a pretence by the Russians to exert pressure on Europe. Putin is a power mad war mongering maniac who detests the west. He is strategically placing Russian forces in areas where they can launch a Europe wide attack in the event he needs to.

ISIS can't be defeated without Assad having real control of Syria (this isn't necessarily supporting Assad as he's obviously a despot) as there needs to be unity in the fight as lets be honest as bad as Assad is he isn't as bad as Isis. Allow Assad support, even if the 'west' doesn't directly provide it they need to stop supporting the rebels against Assad and concentrate them against the real enemy and allow Russia to support (both militarily and financially) Assad. If this mess ever gets sorted transitioning out Assad via political and economic sanctions in the long run must be preferable to an Isis held Damascus.

Sometimes to move on you need to keep dictators in place as they bring stability to the country...getting rid of Assad like the west want would be a bad bad thing....Putin knows what the west don't.

Unfortunately the USA has the weakest squad it has had in years and the manager is utterly clueless.

This might get uglier than it already is.
