  Growing disquiet in Washington over Russian-Iranian actions in Syria By Bill Van Auken 

  18 August 2016 — WSWS

  Russian bombers used an air base in the northwest of Iran for a second day Wednesday to attack targets inside Syria described by Moscow as arms depots and command centers used to support jihadist militias fighting Syrian government forces for control of the city of Aleppo.

  The air strikes, carried out by Tupolev-22M3 long-range bombers and SU-34 tactical bombers, mark the first time that Russia has used a base inside a third country to prosecute the bombing campaign that it began last September against Al Qaeda-linked militias and in support of the Syrian government of President Bashar al-Assad.

  Why the US Pushes an Illusory Syrian Peace Process by Gareth Porter 

  18 December 2015 — Middle East Eye

  Why the US Pushes an Illusory Syrian Peace Process by Gareth Porter

  Do We Really Want a New World War With Russia? By F. William Engdahl 

  16 November 2015 — NEO

  Do We Really Want a New World War With Russia? By F. William Engdahl

  Washington continues making an international fool of herself by her inability to effectively counter the impression around the world that Russia, spending less than 10% of the Pentagon annually on defense, has managed to do more against ISIS in Syria in six weeks than the mighty US Air Force bombing campaign has done in almost a year and half.
