American airstrikes vs Russian airstrikes

In contrast to Russian bombing of ISIS and other rebels in Syria, US involvement there is less clear. At one and the same time, the Americans are supporting rebels, not with air strikes but with weaponry, and striking at ISIS in Iraq. Donald Trump is unwilling to see any difference between good rebels and bad rebels. Who are they?, he rightly asks. To Trump all the rebels are as bad as each other and in this, he thinks like Putin rather than Obama. I think we will see the Russians will step-up its bombing of all rebels and killing very many civilians at the same time. Trump will keep his lip buttoned and let them get on with it as he stops delivering weapons to the imagined "good" rebels. With Trump as commander-in-chief, the Russians will be given the green light to do their worst in the expectation that America will stop complaining.

Yes; in Syria, America is using its air force to kill people. "US-led coalition air strikes are believed to have killed at least 77 civilians in northern Syria, prompting demands from Syrian opposition leaders to halt the strikes, which are meant to hit ISIS fighters."
