#7  Item. IAF hit Hezbollah (Assad's allies & killing some Assad's soldiers in the process) 3 - 5 times since Russian entry into the theatre. No Russian protests.
Item. French, practically, leveled Raqqa after Paris attacks. No Russian protests.

#6  Well, the Brits (and the French) could coordinate the daily IFF codes. Makes the Turks a little less trigger happy not knowing who they're shooting.

#5  Wrong question. Right question: do the Brits really want to go there?

Good question and no, no one wants to go there. My assessment is the recent ISIS flight simulator training [posted yesterday as I remember] has prompted MOD action. Another 9/11 may be in the planning stages and Europe and Moscow are the 25m targets.
