phart Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I see the Saudi's have created a coalition against ISIS, but have failed to include Syria and Iraq (the countries primarily blighted by ISIS) and also Iran. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me get this right. The Saudis want rid of Assad? Is that correct? I am finding it all very hard to keep up with who is on who's side.

thplinth Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Folk i'm speaking to reckon it was the RAF, bombed a Ammo dump, Syrian army had to lose ground. No way to verify it though. Not looking good http://www.eurasiareview.com/07122015-syria-tells-nato-keep-jets-out-or-get-shot-down-oped/ Turns out the RAF have only done 4 airstrikes in a month. They sent the jets out immediately but it was obviously just a show. And if one of them is the above then you really do have to wonder what their real goal there is. Because it does not appear to be to take the fight to ISIS. http://sputniknews.com/middleeast/20160103/1032621571/syria-uk-airstrikes-terrorism.html Edited January 4, 2016 by thplinth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
