Express: End of ISIS? Putin 'sending 150,000 soldiers to Syria to WIPE OUT evil Islamic State'

VLADIMIR Putin is preparing to send 150,000 troops to Syria in a bid to wipe out the evil Islamic State once and for all.

The Russian leader is reportedly mounting an enormous military mission to take control of the terror group's stronghold of Raqqa.

The city is the self-declared capital of ISIS in Syria and is patrolled by as many as 5,000 jihadi members.

Putin is set to mobilise 150,000 reservists who he conscripted into the military earlier this week.

WNU Editor: Reports are circulating that Russia is planning to send in ground troops .... U.S. sees Russia readying ground campaign in Syria (CNN). But 150,000 soldiers ?!?!?!?! I have my doubts.

I think it would be a good thing .. maybe the Syrian people can go back home and live in relative peace again once Russia et al destroy those murdering bastards.

A whole army? The logistics of such a move would be too much to bear,even for the Bear methinks. I could see airborne forces in cooperation with the SAA and friends, but 150k soldiers?!

Even the wording was ridiculous. It's written as if to say the recent draftees were to be sent. Ridiculous!

This is western hysteria at its best (worst).
