Putin's Resurgent Russia Challenges Weakened U.S. (Fiorina: Use Force Against Russian Jets)
IBD ^ | 10/1/15 | IBD Editorials

American Decline: Years of diminishing U.S. power under President Obama have brought us to today's historic Mideast dilemma: proving our willingness to shoot at Russian forces or keep our tail between our legs.

-snip-

Carly Fiorina, whose debate performances have propelled her into the top tier of 2016 Republican presidential hopefuls, on Wednesday told Fox News' Sean Hannity that the U.S. should establish a no-fly zone around U.S.-backed Syrian rebels.

Would that mean using "force against Russian jets?" Fiorina hoped not, but added: "If it does come to that, I think we must be prepared."

Nuclear-armed U.S. and Russia are now at risk of fighting one another. Step back and look at the big picture.

Great idea, FioRINO.

Leapfrog right over that proxy war into a direct, hot war with Russia and China, who have been beefing up their military with steroids while the US military has been emasculated and taken estrogen shots as part of their transelebration.

Idiot.

:: the U.S. should establish a no-fly zone around U.S.-backed Syrian rebels ::

The real problem here is that Assad (FOP: Friend of Putin) should stay in power in Syria. This kabuki-theater reminds me of...

As an aside, this is my fear as we prepare sometime in the next several election cycles for the first female president, that she will go overboard trying to prove that she can be masculine, she’ll overcompensate and draw us into a war completely unnecessarily just to prove her gender.

I am woman, hear me war.

I did not have this concern at all with Sarah Palin. But there are many women out there in power positions that are just itching to over compensate. They are the ones I fear.

They do.

Because they know the central banks, once again, have destroyed economies to the point that they can not be fixed.

As in previous situations like this, the only out is all-out war.

I urge everyone to use civil disobedience in refusing to participate in another bankers’ war.

Why is Obammie the Commie trying to oust the leader in another country?

So that he can put ISIS in charge of Syria?

Is that an improvement?

Obammie the Commie’s Syria strategy is that of serving Saudi Arabia.

We need to stay the hell out of Syria.

And anyone and everyone who supplied arms to Al Qaeda/ISIS in Syria through Benghazi needs to hang from the neck as a traitor.

Putin is playing 4-d geopolitical chess, Obama doesn’t know he’s in a game where aspirational talk doesn’t cut it, and Carly is freaking out.

Meanwhile, Muslims in the Middle East increasingly understand that the roles of religion in the US and Russia have reversed. Sure, the US government still tolerates considerable religious diversity, but it is officially agnostic, teaches atheistic creation myths, promotes all sorts of perversion in defiance of God’s laws, and pays for abortion services. And the US government’s toleration of religious diversity is increasingly confined to prayers, hymns, and rites conducted within a church building proper. Putin is playing the long game by maintaining a reasonably good relationship with the Russian Orthodox Church and enforcing reasonable standards for public moral conduct. Putin understands that Muslims aren’t fond of any infidels, but they hate atheists and polytheists with a passion. More importantly, he also understands that they respect strength and despise weakness. Bottom line: I expect a rapproachement between Russia and Turkey, Iraq, and Iran to the detriment of the US government’s strategic interests.

They work for K Street, and will always advocate the outcome most conducive to new government purchases from defense contractors.
