Well done Russia, keep it up !

As long as they are targeting ISIS and not just rebels against Assad, then great work! Perhaps a change in tactics by Russia?

Cool! Made my day! (Up til now, anyway

Do you suppose they're working on the proposed CMRTTPTT (Cruise Missile, Real Time, Terrorist Profiling, Tracking and Targeting) upgrade?

But he added that "the majority of Russian air strikes are still against moderate Syrian opposition forces, which is clearly concerning, and those strikes are in support of the Syrian regime" of President Bashar al-Assad.

Meanwhile, Turkey has warned Russia that it must immediately stop bombing "civilian Turkmen villages" in Syria, close to the Turkish border.

Why is it concerning? What gives the USA (mainly) and The UK the right to topple regimes at will?

Perhaps because innocent civilians are being killed? What would your comment be if the US was the one doing this bombing of civilians? I don't think it would be a good comment.

The US has been trying to do targeted strikes at only ISIS which limit civilian casualties. Nobody seemed to like that approach....and now everybody seems to be upset the US didn't do more.

Go Raytheon.

Women and children would always be casualties when those brave terrorists hide under skirts...

Soon Russia will be the new America. Help my country has been invaded, who yer gunner call? Russia!

Russia is not a world power any more.
