The US is doing a covert proxy war against Assad and supporting rebels to topple him but wont admit to it. Russia knows it and wants to defend Assad so they're throwing in their weapons so now we have a proxy war US vs Russia in play. Of course, Russia is just saying lets fight ISIS, knowing all too well that the US are trying to topple Assad, and knowing that they're mainly defending Assad and targeting the US fighters and US supported rebels.
