Saudi Arabia along Turkey, Qatar and other Gulf States initially wanted the Gas Pipeline that goes through Syria.
Looks like that is not going to happen. Russia is building a major forward operating base in Syria, and will probably go into Iraq for the Oil. They could care less about ISIS, but that is the excuse.
As for why China is involved is because they are in Africa, and like Russia they want the Oil too.
Finally Iran, Russia and China all want us out of the Middle East IMO. They are going to take the oil in Iraq too.
You’re thinking that Syria isn’t the final objective?
Russia and China want Iraq?
That’s pretty ballsy.
If they come out of Syria, I think Obama should parachute into Iraq to stop them.
He could rip into those T-90s with his pen and telephone.
He should take the entire Democrat Party with him.
