Media: Washington is actively discussing the idea of ​​a no-fly zone in Syria

57
The US administration has a stormy debate on the deployment of military forces in Syria with the aim of establishing in a number of areas flying zones to protect civilians, reports The New York Times.



“The White House is skeptical of such an idea, but amid the growing European crisis of refugees and the military operation of Russia in Syria from Barack Obama, more and more insistently require more decisive measures,” he quotes from the article RIA News.

According to a newspaper source, last week, "during a meeting at the White House, US Secretary of State John Kerry and other officials resumed pressure on the use of air force to protect Syrians from shelling."

The head of the Pentagon, Carter, opposed the idea of ​​a "sobering assessment." According to him, "for this, the United States will have to significantly increase military spending in Syria." In addition, there is a "risk of accidental conflict with the Russian military," if you block certain areas of the country.

Also, officials discussed the introduction of no-fly zones in Syria on the borders with Jordan and Turkey to create safe zones there solely for humanitarian purposes.

However, no decisions were made as a result. Obama was not at the meeting, instead presided over by security adviser to the president, Susan Rice.

            Three questions.
            1. Who will establish the no-fly zones and by what right?
            2. Who are "civilians" in the American way?
            3. What are the "purely humanitarian objectives" for the border zones with Turkey and Jordan?

              "civilian civilians" in the American way are those who serve the interests of the United States.
              What are the "exclusively humanitarian goals" - the sites of transfer of weapons to IS.
              Who will establish the no-fly zones ... apparently glavnyuki because they assigned themselves to this role, the role of Glavnyukov ...

              Good question! I wonder how they plan to implement this issue. Also, are they going to shoot down our planes? And how to carry out a similar plan through a veto of Russia at the UN. Well, unilateral measures in this case are hardly possible, so the White House is right.
              It seems that we still need to increase our group in Syria with the next SU-30 and Su-35, and we will have to understaff the air defense.

    Any attempt to ban Russian pilots from flying is tantamount to declaring war, fraught with a no-fly zone over Turkey and, in the long run, radiation zones in Western Europe and the United States. Are they sure they can hold back their bluff? Because if they can’t, it will finally bury the authority of the USA and NATO in the world. If they can, they will bury the whole world in nuclear fire.

    A Portuguese television story about the unsuccessful landing of the US Marine Corps units was published on the Internet: after leaving the landing boats, the American Hummers stalled in the coastal sand, blocking the exit of other equipment. In Russian, the video is called "The US Marine Corps has landed in Portugal. Don't laugh too hard."

    An epic landing took place on the Atlantic coast near the village of Grandola during NATO exercises. Two landing boats of the marines crawled ashore, the soldiers, as expected, took up a circular defense, but then something went wrong. Namely - the marines' cars that drove down the ramps to the shore immediately stalled, bogging down the hubs in the sand.

    Judging by the hesitant actions of the US military, such a situation was not foreseen in them. The Marines tried to rescue the Hummers from their unexpected captivity, kicking them on the wheels, getting in and out of the cockpit, and also uncomfortably pushing the cars in the stern. This was not successful. Some of the guards, tired of portraying a perimeter defense, lay down in the sand.

I see a full-fledged military base there, and it appears as "partners" that the hair on the seat is tearing in tufts for this reason. And in the no-fly zone - well, no less than such a hefty rolled up "hairy friend" towards "partners".

    Do not succumb to provocations, show off for the poor it (who do not have air defense). It’s one thing to promise to do a no-fly zone, to do something in kind. And I also liked it. On the territory of Syria near the border of Jordan. And why not on the territory of Jordan near the border of Syria.
    And even better in Australia on the border with Penguin.
