    According to trusted military sources of Inside Syria Media Center source in Syria, after the U.S. Tomahawk strikes on the Shayrat air base on April 7, the Russian side has taken measures to guarantee more security for its military in case the attack is repeated.

    Sources have also claimed that two Russian all-purpose jets capable of spotting and intercepting cruise missiles are barraging in the Eastern Mediterranean.

    If any attacks on the objects, where the Russian military are located (including the Hmeimim and Tartus bases), take place, the Russians are likely to carry out retaliatory strikes on the ships that launch cruise missiles.

    As our source states, Russian military advisors have arrived in the Syrian AA defense system facilities to assist in tackling cruise missiles strikes.

    Honestly the us had No Right to do this in the First place. And they seem to Break international Law way more often then the worst pariah States out there.

    Im stil of the opinion that it takes a hipocrit to murder 300 civilians with regular bombs one week only to Bitch about a attack killing 50 the week after. And could care less If one attack used regular bombs And the other Chemical.
    (On sidenote Both Are bad)

    Personally If the us gets his ships sunk or planes Shot down because of a attack in syria then NATO should stay out either way since thats a defencive responce to a illigal attack.

    they have little means currently to knock them down. but can chase it with a fighter jet and us a heat seeker with higher percentages
    https://www.quora.com/Is-a-fighter-jet-capable-of-shooting-down-a-cruise-missile
    so Russia must been sending in there version of a AWACS a50 then to syria
    a100 being tested now

    That is not escalation, that is a precaution. Doubt anything comes out of that.

    Blah-blah-blah-blah.

    May we have at least one of these threads not turned into a penis length competition?

    Is Trump- via the Trumpton Plan- threatening the lives of those who live near nuclear bases which are priority targets for Russian retaliatory strikes ?
    Yes.
    Is he threatening the lives if everybody else ?
    Yes.
    Can we get rid of him before he wipes us all out ? Or must we all just sit around and wait for it.

    It's a lot more serious than you think it is. You have an unstoppable force (USA - Globalists), and an unmovable object (Russia - Syria).

    Whats missing is what else we are doing. Looks like McCain and Graham will get what they want in Syria. 5 Bases will get them almost to the 7k US Military on the ground in Syria


    US Air Force to quit Incirlik, move to Syria base.....

    [​IMG]


    Several US engineering teams are working round the clock to build a big new air base in northern Syria after completing the expansion of another four. They are all situated in the Syrian borderland with Iraq, debkafile’s military forces report.This was going on over the weekend as senators, news correspondents and commentators were outguessing each other over whether the US missile attack on the Syrian Shayrat air base Friday, in retaliation for the Assad regime’s chemical attack on Khan Sheikhoun, was a one-off or the start of a new series.


    As the White House parried those questions, the Trump administration was going full steam ahead on the massive project of preparing to pull US air force units out of the Incirlik air base in southern Turkey, in active American use since 2002. Those units were in the middle of a big moving job to the five new and expanded air bases in Syria. Their hub is to be Tabqa, which is just 40km west of the Islamic State’s Syrian capital, Raqqa. The other five are Hajar airport in the Rmelan region, two small air fields serving farm transport in Qamishli, which have been converted to military us; and a fifth in the Kurdish Kobani enclave north of Aleppo near the Syrian-Turkish border.


    Tabqa is also becoming the main assembly-point for the joint US, Kurdish, tribal Arab force that is coming together in readiness for a major charge on Raqqa. When the work is finished, the rising complex of air bases will enable America to deploy twice as many warplanes and helicopters in Syria as the Russians currently maintain.


    Tabqa is designed to accommodate the 2,500 US military personnel housed at Incirlik.


    The five US bases in Syria are part of Trump’s three-pronged strategy which aims at a) fighting Islamist terror; b) blocking Iran’s land and air access to Syria; and c) providing the enclaves of the Syrian Kurdish-PYD-YPG with a military shield against the Turkish army.....snip~

    Sorry, but this article is a bullshit.
    Five new bases? Where? In the warzone, in the area disputed between ISIS and Kurds? What about logistics? Roads? Fuel? Security?
    Complete bullshit.

    I don't see an intentional US attack on Russian forces in Syria as very likely if things are left up to professional military commanders & not bellicose, AIPAC controlled politicians like McCain etc.
    However, I too am uncomfortable with this level of brinksmanship as it is too tempting for Israel's extremists to exploit via an additional False Flag attack as they have in the past on either the US or Russian forces.

    The Zionist dominated US Globalists must be very frustrated at the thwarting of their attempted Syrian Regime change by Russian forces & must know by now that Assad is going nowhere as long as the Russians are in the game.

    What are your thoughts?

    I don't really see this as a big deal, even if Russia is making some changes and shifting things around on the ground that's what you do in a war zone isn't it. You don't quietly watch 59 tomahawks inbound without any reaction.

    Agree.
    As long as we don't try another attack, things should be okay.

    You find this no problem when Russia has said the US has crossed a red line with its action on Syria and any more by anyone and she will reply. You fine with that?

    The point is, who invited the Americans into Syria? Certainly not the Syrian government, so its an out and out invasion of a sovereign nation. But then again what else is new? Who ever said we are worse than a pariah nation has it wrong. We are the pariah nation. There is no other one.
