Future historians will regard driving the entire Middle East into Russian geopolitical hands as perhaps Obama’s greatest foreign policy triumph.
Or screw-up, depending on who’s discussing it.
And now you know why all those able-bodied men are fleeing Syria....
Sometime in the not too distant future, it’s going to take a Putin to clean up Merkel’s mess in Europe.
Propaganda. The West always inflates its influence in the ME. Putin plays that game too. This wahabi, sunni, shiite insanity is its own creature. The ME has always been powder keg. Yes a lot of mistakes have been made by Bush, Obama, etc. But this fraternal hatred has been going on for centuries. This ISIS insanity would have come at some point regardless of any actions by the USA or Russia or Britain or anyone. These tribal bloodthirsty sects know this but they also know how easy it is to fool the West into sending them $.

This is being reported in real time now:

It Begins: Russian/Syrian Air Offensive On ISIS capital: ISIS Tweets "large number of martyrs"
Judging by the post date of this news article (and it is a blood chilling quote) that means as soon as Putin finished talking the operation started.

When the Russians finish bombing they will send in the their death squads to finish the job.
Please set me straight, someone: Why aren’t we cheering this???
The Russians and Putin have named the mess in Syria for what it is - a terrorist operation, operating under the benign guidance and purview of the Current Occupant now squatting in the White, er, “Rainbow” Hut.
Along with the removal of Hosni Mubarak in Egypt, Muammar Gaddafi in Libya, and the armed insurrection in Yemen, the Muslim Brotherhood was intent on taking down the autocratic but relatively secular regimes of other Islamic countries as well, Syria among them. The word among the Current Regime was that Bashar al-Assad had to be taken down as well.
That presented a complication. Russia had already established a mutual assistance agreement with Syria, in exchange for a Russian naval base in eastern Mediterranean in Tartus, and they had a vested interest in protecting Syria. At the same time, Russia also built up relations with Iran, and to facilitate transport of natural gas from Iran to the Mediterranean, a pipeline was to be built from Iran across Iraq to the port near the Russian naval base at Tartus.
But the overthrow of Assad would interrupt this collaborative effort, and the Russians have had to throw a little muscle in the fight, making Assad, Russia and Iran de facto allies. Thus we have this situation today, of ISIS wanting to break up this alliance, and the US, however wrong-headedly, wanting to remove Assad. Thus, the Current Regime now squatting in the White Hut ends fighting for the SAME objective as ISIS. In a word, Obama owns ISIS.
And the ISIS leadership is NOT composed of good guys.
Don’t forget that the Ukrainian Civil War is a direct result of Obama’s attempts in Syria, as well.
They destabilized an already unstable Ukraine, thinking they could pressure Putin into dropping support for Syria, allowing the Saudi/Qatar pipeline to go through it.
Hard to believe-—but Putin is a devout Christian. It has been reported Putin always carries a cross given to him by his mother.
Putin eagerly proclaimed his Christianity in a NYT Op-Ed awhile back.
Putin also decried Christian slaughter by Muzzies in Egypt and defended Egyptian President al-Sisi in his efforts to drive the Muslim Brotherhood out of Egyptian politics. Putin was there for al-Sisi when al Sisi vowed to rebuild the 63 churches torched by Muzzies who rampaged over Christian homes and businesses.
Putins impressive debut on the NYT op-ed page announced his personally-held beliefs thusly: “......when we ask for the Lord’s blessings, we must not forget that God created us equal.”
.....something every Christian believes-—an article of faith for Christians.....and, not incidentally, the bedrock of our constitutional republic........
We, the people, know we will never hear Muslim Obama say anything even remotely pro-Christianity.
When Putin professes Jesus as the Son of God and kneels confessing Him as Lord of his life and Messiah of Israel, I believe some of what he says.
Christ admonishes us not to judge others lest we be judged. No one knows what’s in a person’s heart.
Besides, we don’t know that Putin hasn’t professed Jesus as the Son of God and kneels to Him as his Lord.....he doesn’t have to do this publicly.
THE NEW GLOBAL ALIGNMENT the global puzzle....The US will be in the Axis of Evil....Saudi Arabia, Turkey, US, and ISIS.
Russia, Iran, Syria, and the Kurds become the saviors of Christians and other minorities.
Good job, Mr. Putin, go get them!
Clif High thinks the Yemenis will deal with the Saudi princes very soon.
