White House: Washington is not going to delay the operation against the IG

38
The US administration will not delay operations against extremists in Iraq and Syria, reports RIA News White House spokesman Eric Schulz.


Aleppo, October 6 2015

"We are not going to make a long operation", - said Schulz, recalling that "Barack Obama has already spoken about this many times."

In turn, the head of the Pentagon Ashton Carter at a hearing in the Senate promised lawmakers to more actively support the Syrian opposition and did not rule out a ground operation against terrorists.

"We will not refrain from ... carrying out missions directly, whether they are air strikes or direct actions on the ground."- he said to the senators.

According to him, the Pentagon will strengthen the air strikes on the positions of the IG in Syria. In addition, the defense ministry "is again considering the possibility of deploying American troops (in Iraq) closer to the front line."

    Yes, everyone sees your "successes" in the fight against IS, or rather their support with weapons and money

        they say one thing, practice shows another, the other day they threw off the weapons of the "moderate opposition" only the guys, find 10 differences between the fighter of the "moderate opposition" and the Ishilovite - the answer, they are the same ... yes, hypocrisy is a distinctive feature of the Anglo-Saxons ...

        Exactly. Since 2011, rolling snot from nostril to nostril and puffing out your cheeks - this is such a subtle "Operation". laughing
        The truth behind this "operation" is another real operation. On the creation of the belt, there is no stability but we will miss it ...

          Yes, as always, everything will come down to the fact that the Americans, seeing that we are winning, will run to chop off at least part of the territory for themselves so as not to completely lose their influence on the region! So it was in 1944 with the landing in Normandy, so it will be now! Our need to work out the response in case of occupation of part of Syria by mattresses! If they send in troops, then just like that they will not withdraw them! So what needs to be done so that the introduction of troops is simply not possible!

            That's the whole problem - HOW and WHAT to do ???

            Without our help, the Syrian troops simply cannot resist this gang, and if the US-NATO troops officially enter the territory, we can’t do anything, since any step will entail a direct clash with NATO ...

            Otherwise, they can’t be smoked by anything ... The territory on which the soldier’s foot set is considered the conquered territory ...

              Landing their warriors deep in Iraq is not a problem. But delivering them to the point of contact is a problem.

              Because Americans will not be forgiven for losses and Obama is unlikely to do so. Nafig him at the curtain still spitting in the back. He and so all and sundry pour mud.

              Because all this is still a talking room. They won’t do anything until the new president. But balabolit - as much as you like.

                In addition to what you said, there are also restrictions in Syria on the use of airspace.

                The GDP warned that it closed the skies over Syria for aviation in all countries. And before someone is going to fly there, this issue should be discussed in advance.

                So, I doubt that the Americans will be allowed to do something there.

      I wonder how the Yankees will explain the loss of US ground forces during the election campaign, even if in Iraq?
      I think that they will not go to Syria, because for this it will be necessary to agree on this with Putin - and our aviation does not care who to bomb on targets set by ALL types of reconnaissance, nobody canceled "friendly fire" ...
      No, the US ground operation should not happen.

        The dust storm season is beginning ... What aviation actions are you talking about ??? Turn on the mind ...

        Neither Putin nor Assad are God or his viceroy on Earth in order to also rule nature ...

        And when these dust storms begin, the winner will be the one who will promptly and skillfully "hurry up" precisely in ground operations ...

        For this reason, spirits now need to be soaked with might and main Ivanovo, under the root, where they are only spotted ...

      In addition, the military department "is again considering the possibility of deploying US troops (in Iraq) closer to the front line."

      And there will be a second front line - local troops will be barrage detachments for the Americans so that they will not be offended by terrorists!
      And if the locals run intensively, the Americans will rush in front of them, without loss!

        Only with money and weapons, but what if the skilled manpower of the IS decreases daily (there, they will even be relocated to Yemen)?
        Does this mean that the IG is still blown away?

    In all cases, the mattresses will want to close the sky over Syria.
    Otherwise, they will be scared.

      But Russia will not allow them to do this, because it will mean our defeat. In addition, "closing the sky" can be done in two ways: anti-aircraft (depriving the ability to move freely) and electronic warfare (depriving the ability to navigate and use the means of aiming weapons at the target).
      And if the first method is not always acceptable, then for the second method we have almost unlimited possibilities.

      Do not take to heart.

      In peacetime, so as not to mess around, there is always work on drawing up plans for an attack or defense. So to speak, development.

      Maybe that "bird talker" blurted out something to journalists. They did not understand, and where possible, they thought of it. So it's all chatter.

    Four years are no longer dragging out if the USSR had fought a war like this with Germany so far. Russia does not like to chew snot like that, it fights quickly and effectively, simply because the war is expensive and painful. We remember the price we were given the VICTORY VICTORY, and the Americans never fought.

    It seems that Washington will use its armed forces as a detachment, chasing ISIS into battle against the Syrians from Iraq. And the supply routes to ISIS will be reduced, they will be immediately transferred to the Syrian-Iraqi border. In general, they organize logistics to support and maintain terrorists in the Middle East hi

    In short, they will carry out an operation to evacuate the unfinished Ishilovites, under the guise of the American contingent.
    Like, Keifor in a new role - in Yugoslavia, the interests of the Albanian thugs were protected, and the Ishilovites in Syria.

    "more actively support the Syrian opposition and did not rule out ground operations against terrorists "...

    The season of dust storms is coming ... Aviation will be chained ...

    If the Amers begin a ground-based land operation under the guise of fighting IS, then this will be for the Syrians and for our not comme il faut ...

    Does it provoke Russia, by its chatter, to include our ground forces in battles ???

    Previously, they had a goal - to redirect the tip of the IS strike from the USA towards Russia ... In practice, they almost succeeded ...

    Now their goal number 1 is to drive Russia into the conditions of Afghanistan-2 ...

    This cannot be allowed, but I can’t even imagine what to do ... One hope is that Putin and his team will have the wisdom and cunning to get out of this wild situation ...

    Question to Ashton Carter: Why the hell did the Americans bomb ISIS for a year? Where did the US Air Force take its bombs and missiles, which made thousands of "combat" missions during the specified period? Probably played darts among themselves. Yankees, those fruits! They say one thing, do another, plan a third. To listen to them, they will take the whole World in one fell swoop. As the Russian satirist M. Zadornov says: the Americans are the chief executives of the planet Earth. They are the main ones everywhere and everywhere their nose is visible. It's time for them to calm down already!
