It might be racist, but you are correct, that is the way they think. Russian media sites refer to Bandar as looking like an ape.

Why would Putin trust them? And why would he throw away the chance to dominate the Meditteranean through Syria? Russian influence is also growing daily in Greece, a country impoverished by EU membership.

The Russians will eventually (when the bombs start dropping) abandon Assad. Then they’ll wield their influence on the jihadis who take over. We’ll get nothing out of it.
