Here we go

WASHINGTON — President Obama has authorized surveillance flights over Syria, a precursor to potential airstrikes there, but a mounting concern for the White House is how to target the Sunni extremists without helping President Bashar al-Assad. Defense officials said on Monday evening that the Pentagon was sending in manned and unmanned reconnaissance flights over Syria, using a combination of aircraft, including drones and possibly U2 spy planes. Mr. Obama approved the flights over the weekend, a senior administration official said.

No way. There are posters here who have led me to believe that ISIS has sophisticated weapons and can shoot these bitches down.
Probably have some crazy jamming technology and lasers we have to watch out for also.

Did he ask Putin for permission?

If we want this to be effective, shouldn't it (and the expected bombing campaign that would follow) be kept secret? What if ISIS operatives start lining themselves with civilian shields and the media turns it into a holocaust?
