We still have more forces than Russia here, and retaliation would be immediate and exponential. Obama has led us to the very brink of WWIII. His foreign policy blunders makes Jimmy Carter look like a savant in retrospect.

Who gives a crap if Russia is on the ground and in the air in Syria.

You ask a good question..WHY are WE over there at all?

Eff them and the House of Saud. Hopefully they will all kill themselves. The only thing the West should be doing is closing the door to Muslim migrants.

Putin could care less about ISIS.

This is all about a power grab.

Nothing less. Nothing more.

Dittoe that!

He sees himself as a conquering CeaZar.

"I saw the Putin interview on 60 minutes. I saw how he laughed when Charlie Rose asked him about Russian intentions. He was so giddy he just couldn't help himself. I have no doubt that Russia has ultimate designs beyond ISIS. It's a pretense. Now, ask me if I care.
With 55 million + babies dead and Obama exporting abortion and sodomy around the world along with his tacit support of ISIS and the reestablishment of the Caliphate ask me if I care what Putin's intentions are. "

55 million babies dead, through abortion? What the heck does that have to do with Putin invading other countries in order to increase Russian power and influence in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, or their joining forces with the ChiComs to counter the US and its NATO allies as they plan for other 'new international order' agenda actions?

Obama, I will say again, basically shares the same NWO agenda with Putin and the ChiComs: significantly weaker US, stronger Russia and China. This is evident by his ACTIONS, not so much his words. ie, cutting our defenses while strengthening theirs, via his missile defense and nuke deals.

Russia is also allied with Iran who has repeatedly threatened to wipe Israel off the map. He partnered with Obama on that deal which would force the US to defend Iran's nuke facilities from attacks from Israel! He is allied with Syria's Assad who has murdered civilians in his country with chemical weapons.

And just so you can't pretend like you don't know what I'm referring to, regarding the strengthening Russia-China alliance...

From the Sino-Russian Joint Statement of April 23, 1997:
"The two sides [China and Russia] shall, in the spirit of partnership, strive to promote the multipolarization of the world and the establishment of a new international order."

Actually I have believed from the start we would see the gentle mask of progressivism/American Marxism come off with 0bama. They have advanced the agenda quite a bit under 0bama.

Where the old marx regimes purged cabinet and military positions with murder, 0bama has very successfully done it through the failings of the corruption of the man.

We ponder over why our Republican leaders have failed the party and America!

We have watched the contorted legal loopholes created by the Supreme Court and Justice Roberts...and stood with our mouths agape at their rulings.

But I still believe that for the final leg of the agenda, it will require violence. The question is what does a war with Russia gain their agenda? What does a caliphate gain their agenda?

Putin wants to wipe out ISIS.

Putin wants to keep the butcher Assad in power and reintroduce Russian influence in the region. He is providing Syria and Iran with the latest anti-aircraft missile systems. Israel will be in greater danger with the increased Russian presence.

We should never forget that we are dealing with a despicable, dictatorial former KGB agent who wants to take this country down a peg and restore Russia's power. Putin is an enemy and should be viewed that way.

Almost word for word applies to 0bama, as well.

Watch for an Iranian nuke detonated in the Strights of Hormuz followed by an invasion of Saudi Arabia from Iran across the Sea, from Yemen in the South and from Iraq and Syria in the North.

Russia will provide the ordnance, and will control all the oil flow from the ME.This is a role traditionally played by the Saudi’s but Russia wants to change that.OPEC ( Organization of Petroleum Producing Countries) is about to become REPEC ( Russian Ensured Petroleum Exporting Countries)

That will mean that the ruble and not the dollar will become the World’s trade currency.

That’s what our next president will have to face after that bat eared ba$tard we have now leaves the White Hut.

Oh I agree, Putin is basically giving the mullahs lip service so far as 'assisting' them with their nuclear program, I'm convinced that the Russians would pull the Persian rug right out from under them if they thought they were on the cusp of having a working nuclear weapon.

Russia to begin building Iran’s 2nd nuclear power plant this year New reactor at Bushehr is part of an agreement with Moscow to construct 8 reactors in all

And just so you can't pretend like you don't know what I'm referring to, regarding the strengthening Russia-China alliance.

I believe every word of it. And my response is, "So what?" It's somewhat tacky for someone to quote themselves but I'm going to re-post what I wrote on another thread on Sunday:

It wasn't. But I would submit that it doesn't matter. In the end, the Middle East is a backward, third-world hole that gets far more attention that it deserves in the world of geopolitics. Blood and treasure lost? Yes. Tragic? Yes. But this is the place where the world comes to test it's theories. Whether it was Bush attempting the imposition of democratic rule on a people who have neither the inclination or the history to accept such a social order, or Obama continuing that notion through his support of popular revolt movements in Egypt, Libya and now Syria.

Same can be said for Putin and his dreams of global dominion. Even the advance of Chinese naval assets into the Mediterranean is nothing more that a test of its own abilities. From the standpoint of United States foreign policy there is absolutely nothing of worth in the Middle East beyond keeping our hand in to know what's going on.

The ultimate solution to the Middle East is theological and not political. It's a 1,400 year old problem. So it is in our interest to ensure they remain a third-world and moribund society for the foreseeable future until they see their way past the Mohammedan fever. That includes fomenting discord and conflict. Continue to use it as a test bed for our ideas to see if we can help them along. And yes from time to time that will cost us blood and treasure.

However, what we will have gained is invaluable knowledge and experience for dealing with Russia and China in the future if the time comes. Provided they both don't fall into self-imposed isolation which is their wont to do. History tells us that their expansionist plans lead to failure. Their cultures simply don't support it. They are inward-looking and ultimately short-sighted.

There will be setbacks such as what we see occurring in Europe. The 60 year American security guarantee freeing them to pilot their own socialist schemes to their demographic detriment. There will be violent spasms in reaction to the Mohammedan horde but they will be the death throes of a civilization that abandoned its fundamental principles. They deserve their fate. Same applies to Russia and China. Their demographics show that there will be no rise of China. Russia's death is assured.

The United States will remain the dominant power of the 21st century. But as you say it will require the right kind of leadership.

If Putin wants to alleviate the world of it's ISIS problem then have at it.

LOL. More propaganda. Obama is a devout Christian as well along with Bill Clinton.

Well so much for my theory that the Rooskies were just referring to our “trainers” or S.Forces that may be on the ground.

I guess we have new leadership in the war on terror.

Vlad the Impaler ey?

...and why do I have Avenged Sevenfolds’ Hail to the King playing in my head? :-)
