I think Russia has bigger plans beyond Syria. Helping Iran defend against an Israeli attack is on the menu.
Obama already has Iran’s defenses in place. Has had for several years. No, Russia has some additional objectives but short range they’ve got their Mediterranean anchor firmly in place ( and expanded ). And they’re encircling turkey and thus quieting it down a bit and assuring that turkey doesn’t mess with Russian sea travel from Crimea to Mediterranean. And Russia Can now directly assure there’s no Saudi energy pipes through Syria to Europe. I think maybe a cooperation deal including basing rights may be next - with Greece
“I think Russia has bigger plans beyond Syria. Helping Iran defend against an Israeli attack is on the menu.”
Netanyahu and the head of Israeli Intelligence were in Moscow on Monday, meeting with Putin and Defense Minister Shoigu.
I don’t think Israel “feels threatened”, but rather gave them their ISIS info, BY HAND, personally, so the Obamunists can’t see it.
Remember, the prevailing meme in Russia is that ISIS are “Obama’s Terrorists”.
In that case, America and Russia would be fighting side-by-side for the first time since WWII.
Obama would definitely defend Iran.
