I don’t care who won and who lost the negotiations. If the use of chemical weapons won’t happen again (the terrorists we fund can’t blame Assad if he doesn’t have chemical weapons) and someone can protect the Christian and other minorities, everybody wins.
If the Russians want to pay for the rebuilding and be a stable presence in Syria, that’s okay too. We’ve shown in Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt and Libya that we aren’t getting it done.
I think Putin’s been a supporter of Christianity in Russia.
