War between Russia, US can't be ruled out: Moscow
2018-04-13
[PRESSTV] Russian Ambassador to the United Nations
...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks...
Vassily Nebenzia has called on the United States and its allies to drop plans for potential military intervention in Syria, warning he "cannot exclude" the possibility of direct military confrontation between Moscow and Washington in case the Arab country is attacked.

Speaking after a closed-door UN Security Council meeting over US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
's threats of an imminent military action against Syria over an alleged chemical attack, Nebenzia told news hounds Thursday that the presence of Russian troops in the Middle Eastern country had made the situation even more dangerous.

"The immediate priority is to avert the danger of war," Nebenzia said. "We hope there will be no point of no return."

Asked whether by that he meant a war between Russia and the US, the Russian envoy said, "We cannot exclude any possibilities, unfortunately, because we saw messages that are coming from Washington. They were very bellicose."

#6  He is speaking to the liberal masses in the US that already hate Trump. Unfortunately the left's attempts to pressure Trump through public opinion have increased his numbers so this move is pointless.

#4  One ping only, Vasilly!

Dude's a poor bluffer, or he cant talk smack well. We're not going to full-scale war with Russia over Syria. As noted, they already got a bloody nose.

#2  You already lost. Several hundred mercenaries were wasted when you attacked US forces in Syria a couple of months ago. So you took it out on civilians in the worst way possible. Loser.
