But that map shows that the Islamic State aren't in Aleppo. Well OK they're in a bit of the top right hand corner of the detail square for Aleppo, but there's a big line of red regime soldiers separating them from Aleppo city.
They are all over Aleppo province they control about 1/3 of the land. And the reason why they are not closer to the city now is the fact they have been pushed back over the last few days.
Hence me stating the SAA have just taken the thermal power plant just outside the city.
Yeah but the Americans had the gps coordinates of the hospital in advance given to them by MSF saying it was thier hospital and knew it was a hospital run by a recognised aid organisation and still bombed it...
"Hospital" in this russian case often seems to be any old building somone set beds up in woth no offical involvement or identification to any of the major parties involved
At least one of the hospitals bombed by Russia or Assad on Monday was run by MSF, who give out their co-ordinates to everyone. http://www.msf.org/article/syria-le...g-another-msf-supported-hospital-attack-idlib

John kerry said that russia could end the war with one call to assad. But failed to.mention that one call for saudi arabia could also stop the warthe one sidedness of the reporting and coverage makes me sceptical about anything anti rus/asad right now.
Yup don't trust anything whatsoever coming out of western and their arab allies mouths. Anyways found this in youtube comments which gives accurate nomenclature on the players in theatre of war
When you read an article about Syria in the Western media, always remember:
1. Regime = Syrian legitimate Govt
2. Brutal Dictator Assad = Syrian legitimate President Bashar Al Assad
3. Regime forces = Syrian National Army
4. Regime loyalists = Syrian civilians defending their villages
5. Regime supporters = All non jihadist Syrian citizens
6. Moderate opposition = terrorists who kill Syrians for regime change
7. Rebels = Saudi Arabia and Western backed terrorists
8. Activists = One man based in the UK who is an ex convict in Syria
9. Pro Regime militia = Hezbollah and Syrian fighters helping the Syrian Army against rebels
10. Assad regime = The Syrian administration led by President Bashar Assad.
11. Freedom fighters = Multi national terrorists working together for government change in Syria
Erdogan is a Muslim Brotherhood Psychopath who wants to resurrect the Ottoman Empire. They are even doing false flag ops on their own people to blame Syrian Kurds.
Rockets, from the Ss26 based at bassel airfield.
People seem to forget (and manoz's post above is an example) where this all started - Syria literally became a melting pot after a relatively open policy of taking in refugees from the troubles in other areas of the ME and NA and neither Assad (who is certainly far from blameless as maonz seems to be trying to make out) or Saudi Arabia can undo that even if they have some responsibility for things that developed after that - ISIS and much of the current problems didn't cause the problems in Syria they took advantage/developed because of the problems in Syria.

Perhaps not the co-ordinates for every hospital...

Well after Russia or Assad bombed four of their hospitals in one day I can't say that I blame them, to hit one hospital would be careless, to hit four is deliberate. I don't comment on BS so have ignored your RT link.

Did they hit four hospitals in one day? The MSF link said one hospital hit four times. And as admitted by MSF they are unmarked and hadn't shared GPS.
They were in two separate cities - Azaz and Maarat al-Numan. See https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=29179387&postcount=5077
No they've only stopped sharing GPS co-ordinates with Russia from now on, because they believe Russia is using those co-ordinates to target the hospitals.
Who's side you on cos it seems you're on the side of terrorists? Russia didn't hit any hospital. If you need some clarity, the good guys are Russia, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Iran. They are the ones actually fighting the terrorists. We are just pretending since we're allies with the people who provided the terrorists ie Turkey and Saudi. Why do you think we want Assad to go exactly? I mean if you need more evidence that ISIS is a western creation and we run them for our benefit(when I say ours I mean our leaders) ISIS are using dollars, which is basically a haram currency cos it's based on debt http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2016/02/16/isis_will_only_accept_payment_in_u_s_dollars.html The reason why this conflict is still going on is because the west are desperate to get rid of Assad and implement a salafist state like Saudi. This would benefit the west, not Syria. You a hasbara shill?

Going to war under false pretenses? Us? Really? Surely not!
Source of independent's article: http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/201...78.html?utm_hp_ref=uk-politics&ir=UK+Politics
UK uses "lie to population and engage in war".
It's not very effective!

Depends - if they are being used to wipe out significant amounts of resources/infrastructure that can be an effective way to wear the opposition down often with less collateral damage.
Problem is the way ISIS operate makes them extremely hard to force into a direct confrontation where they can be wiped out in numbers and likewise reduces the potential for hard attacks against their infrastructure.
EDIT: Reading through the actual individual reports its a little tenuous - seems a bit of an expensive way to carry out some of the fire missions, etc. though many of them did significantly reduce the potential for unintended damage in close situations i.e.:
