Why are people happy rebels fighting ISIS are being bombed?

Reading the comments on daily mail, they are busy praising Putin for being amazing, but the fact is Putin is not bombing or attacking ISIS, just like one bomb out of twenty, to cover his back.

It's like he wants ISIS to grow stronger by having no one to fight them by killing the anti assad rebels, which I know Putin would have a grin on his face to see European getting attacked.

It worries me people have forgotten Russia happily killed civilians on a commercial plane.

Why is Putin only bombing the anti assad rebel and leaving ISIS to grow stronger, something isn't right.

I know I am going to get attacked but 9/10 member on here becuase it seems everyone has become pro putin,

I said the same thing to my friend.

Not that I'd ever wish a horrific death on anyone but if ISIS killed and tortured a couple of Russian pilots and put it in a video maybe Russia would concentrate on destroying ISIS.

Who is to say Putin is wrong? I don't see what the west had been doing has had much affect. You only know what you are fed which is rarely the full truth. I don't trust Putin but in this case maybe his stance is better over all.

The whole place is a mess. We initially fund these nice ISIS people who want to over throw the horrible Assad guy because he doesn't seem to like us or do what we want. The ISIS people don't seem to be quite as nice as we thought and actually rather nasty but now they have our weapons. So what we need is a third group who don't like either Assad or ISIS and we will support them. What next?

Putin knows he can gain a strategic position in the area by backing Assad and as far as I can see no one will stop him. But do we blame Putin or ourselves for creating the situation for him to exploit?

Putin is supporting the government troops in their push, his primary concern is making sure the government stays in power not ending isis.

So first he'll support the government in the areas that they need to make ground which currently are held by any number of rebel groups.

He can ignore isis for now as about 20 other countries are bombing them, once the government has restablished control over most of the country they can then push on the isis areas.

All three are fighting each other but "the rebels " aren't "the rebels" they're a mixture of lots of groups including Al queda and they're all fighting each other too.

If the rebels win the civil war will not be over it will now just be between the different real groups.

But that's what we're doing. Russia is working with government troops to follow up bombings with ground attacks.

We're (trying) to follow up our bombings with the FSA on the ground but it's almost impossible with them.

The government troops can't attack the areas were bombing as we'd bomb them too, so to Russia it's just a waste of bombs.

As we've found out just bombing with no follow up achieves nothing

He is supporting Assad because of the Naval base Russia has on Syria`s coastline.

Air strikes don`t do anything anyway, the rebels can just hide in the ruins which they do.

The whole Syria / Iraq / Libya / ISIS thing a total mess. Allies one day become enemies the next and news that does come out is released by one or other of the opposing factions.

The Middle East itself is split in as much as some countries support the Sunni (ISIS) fight whereas others like Iran support the continuation of Assad.

One thing is irrevocably obvious and not reliant on news is that Iraq and Libya have become much worse since their Dictators were removed by the West. It does not take much imagination to know what might happen if Assad is toppled.

The Russians got that, the West does not get it. Syria was a great country under Assad and this uprising was small and localised event that has now become the focal point of the world for mercenaries and thugs fighting in the name of relion, or freedom, or both.

Look on You Tube for the statement Putin gave in response to a question from a US journalist about the origins of ISIS. He absolutely nailed it and I am far, far, far from an apologist for Putin.

Even if 1 bomb out of 20 is dropped on Isis by Russia that has to be a good thing. Isis won't just forget about that and will now see Russia as an enemy. Maybe Putin is putting more bombs onto the other rebels against Assad, because the Americans and other allies are concentrating 100% of their bombing raids on Isis, so Putin is putting his bombs elsewhere to help Assad. Putin does'nt need to attack Isis in Syria, the USA/coalition is doing it for him.

Good post. We all know Assad is a brutal butcher of a dictator, but if he is toppled i think the alternative would be far, far worse.

Sadly I have to agree. I'd choose Assad over ISIS every time.

Still don't trust the Russians but we (the West) have had 4 to 5 years to try and sort this and we only seem to have made it worse.

While we're blaming George and Tony do you not think that we might also blame Assad for a total over reaction to a few people demonstrating for a little more democracy, or Iran for constantly trying to undermine all Sunni Muslim states in the Middle East, or Russia for encouraging Assad to take a strong stance against democratic protestors 5 years ago because it was worried it would loose influence in the area, or Israel for backing any group in any middle east muslim state that it things will cause trouble, or Al-Qaeda for attacking the US leading directly to the more interventionist strategy taken by the US and the West since.

Or is it just George and Tony who should take all the blame?

Syria are Allies with Russia so the rebels to them are also terrorists like Isis so both will be taken out by the Russians, England will fuck up Syria & leave it in a terrible state like we did in Iraq & Russia can't allow that.

That is the daily express though :p

One big advantage Russia has here is it has a proper fuctioning army on the ground it can communicate with. It can say right we'll bomb these positions to soften them up then you push in and clear them out.

Mean while the "west" if we go to the FSA/rebel group in the area we'll bomb these potions then you push in they'll just tell Isis and there will be no one there.

Is that even a serious question ? I realise the Trump doctrine of making up foreign policy on the fly is attractive to some.

The reason millions of Syrians fled to Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan is due to the brutality of the war. The war Assad started and now the war Putin will escalate.

You say the war which Putin will escalate, but maybe Russia's intervention will shorten the war in the grand scheme of things. If Syria can be made peaceful again all those Syrian's who fled to Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan can go back to their homes.

On that we agree. A short war is always the best war.

I'm confused do America want to wipe out ISIS? Or is it just "friendly fire" like they did to the UK forces?

I sort of hope you're right but, although I definitely prefer the Russians to ISIS I still don't trust the Russians. If the Russians want to be they are a far more serious threat to Europe and it's freedoms than ANY other possible enemy, they always have been and probably always will be.

Anti Russian propaganda is a bit like the war on drugs. When you have had a particular message rammed down your throat for so long, it becomes difficult to imagine a different scenario.

Russia is absolutely our ally in this particular battle and the dithering Western politicians are a joke.

Like it or not, Putin looks after his people.

There is a difference between political satire and investigative journalism you know."

Is there?
