Tensions in Syria hit an all time high when the US military shot down a Syrian SU-22 that was attacking Al Qaeda jihadist forces on the ground.
The US version of the incident goes like this (courtesy of The Hill)…

The loosely-knit coalition of Syrian rebel groups known as the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), are armed, trained and backed by the U.S. The group is currently engaged in the early stages of battle in the ISIS stronghold of Raqqa, Syria.
Back in April, in the immediate aftermath of the US cruise missile attack on Syria’s Al-Shayrat air base, Russia retaliated by switching off the ‘de-confliction’ hotline between the US and Russian militaries in Syria, which enables these militaries to avoid accidental clashes with each other.
The US is manipulating its people and global opinion by pretending that in Syria they are fighting ISIS (the so-called “Islamic state in Syria and Iraq”). The facts on the ground however tell a different story.
This illegitimate coalition of the US and its allies operating illegally in Syrian territory and airspace has done nothing to fight ISIS. On the contrary they provide ISIS with its air force, so that it can resupply unhindered its fighter, who are all foreign born militants.

It is the secret that many who have been following the 6 year Syrian crisis have always known.
Today a big mainstream media outlet blew the cover off of the best, worst kept secret in geo-politics.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Israel and Saudi Arabia have been aligned from the very beginning of the Syrian conflict, providing money and arms to Syrian rebel groups (aka ISIS and Al Qaeda).
