Recently I have written a couple of posts about just how crowded the skies are becoming over Syria……in case you would like to see what I have written……

With all that traffic over Syria is almost bumper cars with Syria, US, Turkey, Russia, France, occasionally Jordan and China has hinted that they to will join the “fun” in response to ISIS killing a Chinese national now we can add one more……
British lawmakers voted by a wide margin Wednesday to join the international campaign of airstrikes against ISIS in Syria after Prime Minister David Cameron asserted that bombing the “medieval monsters” in their heartland would make Britain safer. Anti-war protesters outside Parliament booed as they learned the result of the vote. The decision came after an emotional 10 1/2-hour debate in which Cameron said that Britain must strike the militants in their heartland and not “sit back and wait for them to attack us.”
Opponents argued that Britain’s entry into Syria’s crowded airspace would make little difference, and said Cameron’s military plan was based on wishful thinking that overlooked the messy reality of the Syrian civil war. Just hours after the vote, British warplanes carried out their first airstrikes in Syria. Four Royal Air Force Tornados took off from a British air base in Akrotiri, Cyprus shortly after the vote. A Ministry of Defense spokesman told the AP the planes had conducted strikes in Syria, and details about their targets would be provided later Thursday.
UK did not waste anytime joining the parade of war planes…..I am sure that this will make all the difference now that UK has decided to do what is “right” (sarcasm in case it eluded you)…..defense contractors are all smiles and drinking champagne…..
But this is not the end of this post…….
The German cabinet agreed on Tuesday morning to join the Syrian war. Chancellor Angela Merkel and Defence Minister Ursula Von der Leyen left no doubt that the intervention would be a combat mission.
The German army plans to send six reconnaissance Tornado aircraft, air-to-air refuelling planes, a frigate, and up to 1,200 soldiers to Syria. A total of €134 million is to be spent over the coming year on the deployment, the largest intervention currently being conducted by the German army.
And now I ask the same question that I have asked on numerous occasions…..What could possibly go wrong?
Nothing!
As long as I am in ‘ostrich’ position. 😉

Hahaha needed that! 😉

I believe the comments I left on the two previous posts will cover my thoughts on this one perfectly, so I will merely refer you to them….
What could go wrong? Well, just ask Murphy….
