The wife’s mom died. Known her for 40 years. She died 1 day after we left from our visit. No sign of it at that time. My wife, Gwynne, and I are the Old People now. Heavy.

You and Gwynne have my condolences.

All right, I’ll start posting again. Certainly got my attention. It was an awesome dust-up. Best ever.

good times.

Syrian regime forces launched a coordinated attack that included about 500 regime troops, 122mm howitzers, tanks and multiple launch rocket systems on the US-backed SDF headquarters in Deir al-Zor province approximately five miles east of the Euphrates River.

Regime forces operating Russian-made T-55 and T-72 tanks fired 20-30 tank rounds within 500 feet of the SDF base, where some US troops were embedded, according to Pentagon press secretary Dana W. White.

The US-led coalition responded with "AC-130 gunships, F-15s, F-22s, Army Apache helicopter gunships and Marine Corps artillery," according to Fox News reporter Lucas Tomlinson.

The Pentagon said that the attack wounded only one SDF soldier. Days later, a US jet destroyed a Russian-made T-72 battle tank that had fired on US and SDF forces, the Pentagon told Business Insider.

Crazy thing is if this had happened in 2014 we'd all be flooding this board predicting WW3 soon.

In Trump's America, killing 100 RU is a slow news day.

Still not actual Russian forces. 'russian-made' and 'russian fighters' are not Russian Army.

It's a proxy war. Same as it ever was.

You don't believe in Liberty. Enjoy the whack-a-mole. If I say something you don't like, my shit gets deleted, you've hit a new low, truly.

Someone has hit a new low but it's not Martin.

Ivan is not going to war with the Eagle With Thunderbolts In Talons Grasped, over Syria, calm down, Syria is not a Russian red line.

If Ivan was even up for a tussle, he wouldn't be using KSSO covert under the rubric of "contractors" and then disavowing them after, he be coming out with flags flying pipes skirling sabers glinting in the sun.
