In the ongoing fight against Islamic militancy in the form of jihadists that threaten the world, the U.S. and Russia are going to be partners, even if that partnership is tenuous and superficial. The question is whether Russia or the U.S. will be leading the fight. Today, with Obama in the presidency, it appears as if Russia is leading while Obama follows, all the while pretending that Putin’s diplomacy approach to Assad’s chemical weapons was really his (Obama’s) idea. Sure it was.
The US and Russia are not going to be partners in the fight against jihad as long as O is running things in DC.
