“And a stepped-up expansionist mission to complete.”

True, although it is also a power vacuum that we have HANDED THEM - can’t blame them for stepping in.

Precisely what I've been saying has been Obama's agenda all along. As for not blaming them for stepping in to fill the vacuum, I agree, as long as not blaming them for filling in the vacuum isn't the same as supporting what they are doing.

Well, you called me out. I do actually support the Russians here as I think ANYONE in Syria is worse than Assad, particularly for Christians there that simply want to live out their lives.

Perhaps Hillary should have considered that before causing a half dozen wars that have left millions dead.

What about the 'bigger picture' of their general expansionist aims in eastern Europe. Are you supportive of that as well?

Naa, I don’t think Putin cares too much there and I certainly don’t support him moving back into the Baltic States or Eastern Europe. Ukraine is tougher to get my hands around - we practically dared him to move there.

Israel for it gas fields (they could just as easily become “Syrian” gas fields; US and or Israel if they try to take out Iran’s nukes (Russia has a lot of money and personnel invested there).

China may just be in for the practice and intel.

Sounds unlikely. FOX is probably using Debka as a source.

You say you don’t post pictures of Putin after you posted pictures of Putin. Just profess your love for him already.
