IMHO:
* Russia will be the dominant power in the Middle East.
* Russia will soon confiscate the North Shore of the Black Sea so that its only warm water Naval Port can exert unimpeded power over the Middle East.
* Russia will eventually confiscate all of the Nation of Ukraine that it’s leaders consider necessary to supply, un-impeded, its Navy AND Europe with the goods and services required.
* In the soon-to-be completed game of Foreign Policy “Chess,” it will be “King” Putin to “pawn” B. Hussein for a checkmate.
Oops! I forgot! Sorry!!
Obama has vast experience as a Community Organizer, Nationalized the complete failure of 1/6 th of the US Economy, and has a sealed Haaaaaaaavud diploma to someday be unsealed and filed by his Nobel Peace Prize in his Chicagoland Library.
Yup, Putin will be more cautious NEXT time, or so Red-Liners Biden and Kerry want us to believe - - - .
MOVE ON!
FORWARD!
And just maybe one day, Russia will decide that they want some of the Aleutian Islands back.
