and clever, with the Cash tune.

This is in the description on the video page:

Since 2011 the US has been waging covert war against Syria using Al Qaeda and ISIS terrorists as its proxy mercenaries. Tens of thousands have died, millions have been displaced and still, the US seeks to pursue this deadly, destructive agenda.

With Iraq and Libya destroyed, Syria and Yemen under attack, if this tide of chaos isn't stopped in Syria now, a more dangerous confrontation faces humanity in the near future.

This was not headlined but it was noticed:

"Russia’s jets have struck in support of Syrian ground troops advancing from areas under the control of the Syrian government, and might soon back an Iranian-led offensive that appeared to be forming in the northern province of Aleppo on Wednesday. That coordination reflects what American officials described as months of meticulous planning behind Russia’s first military campaign outside former Soviet borders since the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

"Russia’s fighter jets are, for now at least, conducting nearly as many strikes in a typical day against rebel troops opposing the government of President Bashar al-Assad as the American-led coalition targeting the Islamic State has been carrying out each month this year. - See more at: http://pamelageller.com/2015/10/russia-bombs-more-targets-in-1-day-than-obama-did-in-1-month.html/#sthash.s4CdPqeV.dpuf" New York Times 10/14


Basically, however, I'm a huge Johnny Cash fan. His later stuff like this and another about a Pale Horse match is apocalyptic voice with the real apocalypse lol.

using Al Qaeda and ISIS as an excuse? Or using them (arming them?) to overthrow the Syrian government?

"US has been waging covert war against Syria using Al Qaeda and ISIS terrorists as its proxy mercenaries."

This is a pro-Russia, anti USA video, put out by a Russian organization.

Google the organization which put up the video:

We provide material and monetary support for rebels fighting Assad. Our government admits this freely That's what the fuss was over Russia defending Syria by bombing "moderate rebels" that the US supports. These moderate rebels are a huge group of Islamist extremists from Saudi Arabia, al Nusrah, which steals weapons from the third group, the Free Syria Army. Those "moderates," including FSA, openly ally with ISIL/ISIS and say as much.

This has been going on since 2011. 200,000 Syrians are dead, some soodiers/fighters, many more cifilians.

It's a tragedy.
