Syrian General Accuses U.S. of Bombing Them for the Benefit of ISIS

I’m sure it’s all one big misunderstanding. Maybe a few wires got crossed. It is being reported that more than 62 troops, loyal to Assad, the ally of Russia, have been killed by U.S. bombings. This is especially curious, just a day after Russia publicly humiliated the Obama administration for wanting to keep the prospective cease fire agreement secret from the UN.

Syria is claiming the bombing helped ISIS overrun an airport they were defending.

They further their claims, saying this act of aggression was ‘conclusive evidence’ that the US and its allies control and help ISIS.

Mind blown.

Syria’s army general command said warplanes from the U.S.-led coalition bombed a Syrian army position at Jebel Tharda near Deir al-Zor airport on Saturday, paving the way for Islamic State fighters to overun it.

The air strike killed Syrian soldiers and was “conclusive evidence” that the U.S. and its allies support the jihadist group, the Syrian army said in a statement, noting that the strike was “dangerous and blatant aggression”.

Russia had this to say about the deteriorating situation in Syria.

Russian General Vladimir Savchenko said “the situation in Syria is worsening”, with 55 rebel attacks over the past 24 hours, leading to the deaths of 12 civilians.

Gen Poznikhir said Russia, an ally of the Syrian government, was doing all it could to rein in Syrian troops.

“If the American side does not take the necessary measures to carry out its obligations… a breakdown of the ceasefire will be on the United States,” he said.

“The United States and the so-called moderate groups they control have not met a single obligation they assumed in the framework of the Geneva agreement.”

Numerous ceasefire breaches by Syrian government troops and rebel groups have been reported

The terms require moderate rebel groups to separate themselves from jihadists.

Gen Poznikhir said: “Our repeated messages to the American side are left without a response. There is doubt that the US is able to influence the moderate opposition they control.”

Russia said that if things didn’t change, they’d resume bombing Syrian rebels. I love how we gingerly stroll towards World War 3 like a walk in the park. There isn’t a peep of concern from the media, aside from evil Russian hackers working to elect Trump.

UPDATE: The U.S. says the unfortunate incident was, in fact, an accident.
