Late last year the US had three aircraft carrier battle groups near North Korea at the same time which actually was noteworthy. One aircraft carrier carries a lot of firepower but there isn't anything noteworthy about the US having one in the Eastern Med or the Persian Gulf. When the Iraq war kicked off the US had six carriers on the scene along with a massive buildup of Army and Airforce around the country. <cite>Atralis posted [p:899654236] in turns out ...

They were mercenaries that neglected to tell the US or Russian governments what they were doing and got blown up when they came too close to US special forces. Oh dang that's crazy. What were they doing there? The Russians allow/encourage mercenaries to go to Syria to fight for the Assad regime. The US supports a group of mostly Kurdish rebels and the border between them and Assad's forces is currently the Eurphates river. The mercenary group crossed to the wrong side of the river to try and seize a position probably not realizing there were US forces nearby. The US bombed the shit out of them and they retreated. http://www.newsweek.com/total-f-russian-mercenaries-syria-lament-us-strike-killed-dozens-818073 The man explains that American forces used artillery and helicopter gunships to repel the assault. They were all shelling the holy ** out of it, and our guys didnt have anything besides the assault rifles. Nothing at all, Im not even talking about shoulder-fired SAMs or anything like that. They tore us to pieces, put us through hell, he says. The speaker is also critical of the Russian governments response to the incident, saying, They beat our asses like we were little pieces of ...but our ing government will go in reverse now, and nobody will respond or anything and nobody will punish anyone for this. My guys just called me, they are sitting there drinking, many are MIA, its a total up, another humiliation.... Nobody gives a about us. In a second clip, a man explains that the battle quickly descended into a massacre as the Russians lost all armored support. Out of all vehicles only one tank survived and one BRDM (Armored Reconnaissance Vehicle) after the attack, all other BRDMs and tanks were destroyed in the first minutes of the fight, right away. <cite>Atralis posted [p:899656457] in turns out ...
