Russia Bombed U.S Base In Syria to Pressure Obama to Join Forces

US Secretary of John Kerry on Friday announced he would meet with his Russian counterpart in the coming days to discuss an American proposal that aims to bolster a ceasefire in Syria and streamline the fight against militant groups.
"The president of the United States has authorized and ordered this track," Kerry told reporters.
"It is the president's desire to test whether or not the Russians are prepared to do what they said during our negotiations in Moscow that they will do," he added.
The proposal would require Damascus to cease attacks against US-backed opposition groups.
In exchange, Russia would receive intelligence from Washington to target militant groups operating in the country, including the self-styled "Islamic State" and al-Qaeda-affiliated Nusra Front, despite skepticism from US military and intelligence officials.
Last week, Kerry held marathon talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov concerning the proposal.
"We're going to test this very carefully based not on trust, based on specific steps," Kerry said, referring to the talks in Moscow. "So far, it is showing a modicum of promise which, hopefully, we can complete."
