Russia is stepping up weapons supplies to Syria’s President Bashar Assad, to help him prevail in the civil war, as part of the arrangements under which the Assad regime has agreed in principle to have its chemical weapons stockpiles placed under international supervision, Israel television reported on Tuesday night.

lmao. By the time the UN weapons inspectors conclude 6 months from now that Assad is not complying with anything, the rebels will all be dead.

[Steely Tom]

Which muslim is Obama going to stand with?

[henkster]

Checkmate.

[gotribe]

That was sooooo predictable.

[11th_VA]

Putin is the 21st Century Charles Martel ...

[1rudeboy]

More like a check. I wonder what the next move will be.

[I want the USA back]

Assad is putting down the murdering ‘rebels’ who are murdering Christians. Thank you, Putin.

[Little Ray]

We can only hope.

[Jim Robinson]

Meanwhile on the real battlefield...

[cripplecreek]

Well we’ve been pumping weapons in to prop up Al Qeada so I guess we’re seeing the gander.

[Da Coyote]

I trust Putin’s judgement much more than our Muslim-in-Chief.

[Red Badger]

Putin is a real man.............

[SERKIT]

Well, Hillary should like this since she knows Assad as a “reformer”.

[Sacajaweau]

hey...they're not chem weapons so it's okay.

This war is 2 years old. Anything we do can only flame the fire. One side is as bad as the next.

Egypt, Libya, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan....ALL Muslim countries...ALL mass murderers

[cripplecreek]

If we had stayed out of this Assad would have put the uprising down in a few months and the people could go back to living in relative peace.

[traumer]

WELL PLAYED VLAD....

[grumpygresh]

At least someone is fighting Al Qaeda.

[EQAndyBuzz]

“More like a check. I wonder what the next move will be?”

Obamas next move will be his speech tonight. He won’t be talking to the American people, but will be talking to Iran.

[gotribe]

We’ll not be doing anything against Iran. Our influence over there is gone. Putin, however, can rein them in, as he can put the bridle on the Saudis.

[ez]

Nope. He’s right. Zero can’t bomb Assad now without looking like he’s supporting the MB rebels, since the chemical weapon ruse has been neutralized. The rebels can’t release more gas without revealing that they had it in the first place and it was never Syria that used it. Assad will crush the rebels and zeros buddies lose. Checkmate.
