At will. Park your Syrian butts and keep them hummus holes shut. We're coming in to lay some steel down biaches!

At our will and pleasure. Flying, bombing, striking... unopposed as the Syrians crawl in the rubble and pretend they have a say when we are intent on laying blankets of fiery hot steel in what they think is their land.

Targeting quality hasn't improved I see.
UN General-Secretary Says Syria Informed in Advance About US Airstrikes Against IS Targets | Politics | RIA Novosti
Earlier on Tuesday, Washington carried out a number of airstrikes against the IS, al-Nusra Front and Khorasan jihadist groups positions in Syria, using aircraft, drones and Tomahawk missiles. Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates also reportedly took part in the attacks.
At least eight civilians, including three children, were killed in the strikes, according to Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.


Usually a body count is given by the US, guess they didn't even get 1 terrorist. Not the first time as they haven't gotten any in Iraq either.

It's just about time to see a few warships pop in beautiful colour and sparks. We will see if Mr Putin will act. I don't think it's going to be an unopposed criminal bombing party. There's a line there somewhere close.

At our will. At our pleasure and leisure. Molten metal and DU whizzing through the syrian landscape while their govt. stooges slither in the dust around their multimillion dollar Russian SAMs paper weights.

You really need some writing courses so can add some emotion to those repeats. (or did I miss the next wave) Must be a big blow to have to start killing the ones so much money has been invested in by the usual suspects.

He gets that way when he has had a white-knuckle grip on his joy-stick for more than 3 minutes.

For the benefit of our valuable friend and ally, Basher Assad.

Do you have a better way of stopping the bastards? Have you considered that possibly Obama has a little more intelligence about the matter than you do? How many expert advisers do you listen to? -:)

Hmmmm **** ISIS.

Seriously. When the hawks started chirping about Assad and Syria, well things could be quite a bit worse now. I think I read somewhere the other day that ISIS has close to $2 billion in cash and other assets.

That's crazy.

Is it so crazy to say, let them sort their tribal bull$hit out for themselves?

What a deeply tangled, ridiculous, frigged up mess!
And not one Muslim heading any of the chicanery.
Why do details, usually they can't get that out fast enough. Did Israel splash and F-22 rather some ancient Mig? If the US asked Israel to turn off it's missiles they would have said, 'No.' and the auto-fire wasn't put in standby mode.

I should think the first attempt at stopping them might include suspending their pay and firing them or and stop arming them. I'm not a military expert but mightn't that approach work? The bombs are expensive so I suppose there may be some reluctance to cease using them. It's very odd that a US trained band of freedom fighters turned out so bad, don't you think? Rogues I suppose, lied on their application forms I suggest, a better educated interviewer would have pick out the bad apples.

I think ignoring this group will have longer lasting effects. Best to start pounding on them now.

All the 'trucks they stole' have On-star, nothing like a remote shutdown rather than starting them up for them.

"Sort out their own thing"! This is how to loose confidence at home, you must be an isolationist pinko.

Perhaps the 3 'missing' were ISIS leaders and once they hear 'the plan' moving to the North Pole seemed like a good option.
