Although if the above scenario happens, then I imagine we will be stacking troops in Saudi Arabia all over again.

Only this time they'll be facing another nuclear armed superpower and not some tinpot dictator.

Putin is going to crush ISIS, and will reap the benefits.

Yes, you got it. This is like putting man on the Moon. The nation that annihilates ISIS will be seen a leader among nations.

Yep. ISIS has scattered to the western world. Prolly none left in Syria.

I wonder if Russia is planning to split Iraq with Iran?

We'll see if they come out with a non-aggression pact. Worked so well for Russia over Poland a few years ago.

Russia did significantly worse, until obama.

With Russians ISIS (Dash) will face an enemy that can be as barbaric as they are or worse! Even if the 90,000 number is high, the Russians are “In it to win it”. Worry Not—Russia will get money enough to pay for their adventure. A little bit of advise for the ISIS folks—If you capture any Russians, Don’t burn them alive for the cameras. It will just piss them off and they will go all Mongol on you.

Russia does make a feeble effort to go after Israel ....will be defeated by Nato and US forces.....will regroup and then later on go against Israel with the ME hoards at a later time.

So, how’s that “Arab Spring” thing working out for us?

If you heard 95,000 ruskies with air support were coming your way, wouldn’t you volunteer to be a lone wolf in Europe?

Just saying! Ha ha....

I agree. I think they might have misplaced a decimal point. Unless Assad has an S-Load of fuel, MREs, and porta potties.

I call BS on the number. Maybe that is how many Iran will send under Russian command?

There is no downside for Russia in destroying ISIS. None.

Iran likes them more. The troops get a warm-up game for Ukraine and the Baltics. And a lot of terrorists who might want to do another Beslan get dead.

It all makes perfect sense.

Ezekiel 38: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords.

It means our war in Iraq was a complete waste

That's true no matter what Russia does.

Ah, the two front war. If we had a US President with brains, and who actually acted in the national interest, we could spend Russians into submission and get a lot of their troops killed inside of a calendar quarter.

Oh, and Angela - lots of room for Syrian refugees in the Saudi Kingdom. Maybe you forget how the Berlin Airlift worked. Do the same again, only this time in reverse.

It’s actually North.

Ezekiel 38:15-16
You will come from your place in the far north, you and many nations with you, all of them riding on horses, a great horde, a mighty army.

You will advance against my people Israel like a cloud that covers the land. In days to come, Gog, I will bring you against my land, so that the nations may know me when I am proved holy through you before their eyes

Why would we want to do that?

Militarily ISIS is an absolute joke! A bunch of spoiled pampered little Euro-Arabs and Saudi Oil Babies running around abusing women and children and murdering unarmed civilians. Their “victories” in Iraq were hand overs from Sunnis.

The Fijian Coastguard would wipe the floor with those morons in an actual fight. There is NO CHANCE they will ever stand and fight Russian Marines. They would get smoked in heartbeat.
