Vladimir Putin has conscripted 150,000 new troops into the Russian army as the country unleashed a new wave of airstrikes in Syria - while and Iran and Islamist group Hezbollah prepare for a major ground offensive.

Hundreds of Iranian troops have arrived in Syria over the last ten days, backed by the country's Lebanese allies, Hezbollah, and rebel fighters from Iraq and Afghanistan, two Lebanese sources claimed today.

One of the sources said the Iranian ground forces were 'soldiers and officers', not advisers, adding: 'We mean hundreds with equipment and weapons. They will be followed by more.'

They are being supported by Russia's warplanes who bombed camps of rebel fighters trained by the CIA, one of the group's commanders claimed.
The White House said Russia's airstrikes in Syria were 'indiscriminate' and claimed its actions risk prolonging the conflict 'indefinitely'.
The comments were made after the first in a series of discussions between US and Russian leaders aimed at 'de-conflicting' operations in the country.

I agree; pray for all parties involved.

Sorry, not going to be praying for ISIS or any western advisers who might be helping them.

Okay.
It's hard to pray for those that hate you, or to love your enemies. I certainly don't always do that; but I try.

I pray that the Isis folks will drop their weapons and turn around and go home. Once home, I pray they will see the light and come unto Christ.

More than one way to come unto Christ. China or Russia can dispatch them and maybe in the next life when their temple work is done they will convert. ;)

I find it ironic you calling them bloodthirsty and in the same breath wishing for their death. I'm sure the Nephites felt the exact thing for the Lamanites. They have the excuse of it being the traditions of their fathers. What's yours?

I don't pray for their cause or actions. I pray they can stop themselves.

But to my point Russia and China are no Heros. They have their motives and agenda.

What about the motives and agendas of the USA? We're not so pure, I'm sorry to say.

No modern state does any real good for humanity.

Am I "bloodthirsty" towards animals if I am a farmer and a cougar kills my horses and I go out and hunt it down? The animal is only doing what is programmed in its genes to do, but as a defender of my property I have to put the animal down.

Now you are probably saying that these ISIS people are human, not animals. Yes, you would be right. The animal is ultimately innocent but as humans the ISIS members have choice, and they have made the wrong choice by shedding innocent blood, raping little girls and selling girls in slave markets. So their lives are far less important to me than a beautiful wild cougar.

These people may mean nothing to you, but they mean a great deal to our Father and His Christ.
