The death of the Russian commander is the price paid with blood for the hypocrisy of American policy in Syria," Ryabkov said on Monday.
General Asapov was serving as one of Russias military advisers in Syria. On Sunday, the Russian Defense Ministry said he was fatally wounded by an exploding shell in a sudden mortar attack by IS terrorists.
Moscow is concerned that while Washington claims it is interested in fighting Islamic State (IS, formerly ISISISIL) terrorists, it demonstrates quite the opposite, according to the deputy minister.

Plus the russian Ministry of Defense is feeding the conspiracy-theory that the US are allied with ISIS. And of course the US military cannot comment on the rumors, because then they would have to issue a public correction where which troops are located in Syria.
Those stupid and uneducated Americans. Always so emotional. Always blaming Russia for their problems. Making up conspiracy-theories! Fake news! Fake news!
