The Russians don't want a Middle East natural gas pipeline, either. My guess is that a stabilized Assad regime will never allow a gas pipeline.

US LNG exports to Europe is the proper price for the Russians to pay for the the Ukraine, Georgia, and their other activities. Taking money out of the pockets of the Oligarchs that run Russia is the best way to influence them.

Hmmm... Is the Syrian Mess all about this photo from ZeroHedge below? Notice all the moves by PDJT to checkmate Iran ( IMHO, the Cruise Missile Strike, MOAB Strike, and the one in Yemen were all about Iranian Proxies that could do harm to Israel, it was all about boxing in Iran and sending them a message, as he continues to move toward a P.A./Israel peace deal ) and , and now Qatar is being Beeotch slapped, good!. The whole Muh-Russia thing is even stupider if you think about it, why are we selling Russia's customers natural gas and take away that market if DPJT was in cahoots with them before the election!
