The future just looks darker and darker for American interests with Imam Obama at the helm.
Putin is supporting his buddy Assad.
The Russians like armored warfare.
They want to blitzkrieg out of that base and roll-up all of Assad’s enemies in Syria.
It will be interesting to see Russian armor against the anti-tank weapons that Assad’s enemies have.
Putin staked his claim in Syria when they docked that Russian submarine with nuclear missiles in Syria. That was a message to the West to stay out of what’s coming.
Looks like siding with Saudi Arabia was a winning American bet in the 20th century but a losing bet in the 21st century.
