““We’re not going to make Syria into a proxy war between the United States and Russia,” Obama insisted during an afternoon news conference at the White House.”

I’m normally no fan of Obama, but if he’s willing to disengage so that Russia can take care of the Terrorists in Syria, then MORE POWER TO HIM.

The last thing we need is some hormone-driven ‘Republican’ (I won’t mention her name) DEMANDING that we start World War 3 against Russia.

Let Russia clean this mess up, and then THANK THEM when it’s over. I’m sick of trying to play good-cop there.

Let’s see how Obola feels when the Russians start to mass on the Saudi’s northern border.

Obola will pack up the armored div that’s in SA right now and take it home.

As they say, “You can’t win if you don’t play.”

Russia isn't going to clean up any mess. Russia is going to solidify the leadership of Assad, and will destroy anyone else. If ISIS wants to continue attacking other areas and leaves Syria alone, Russia has no problem with this. If the United States keeps arming groups opposed to Assad, Russia will destroy them.

This is something out of the Godfather. If ISIS has goals that don't conflict with Russia and Syria, Russia will not get involved in fighting ISIS.

Obama insisted during an afternoon news conference at the White House. ....“This is not some superpower chessboard contest. And anybody who frames it in that way isn’t paying very close attention to what’s been happening on the chessboard"........

That would be one of the few sane things Obama has done during his mis-rule. So it probably won’t happen.

Did you see how Russia dealt with the Somoli Pirates?

Also how Russia dealt with kidnappers in Lebanon?

Russia doesn't play stupid games.

Let’s send Putin into the Baltics and clean those up too. Way too much pro-western capitalism there. No offense but don;t be naive. Putin isn’t doing this to help Syria, or because he is afraid of ISIS, he is doing it to publicly humiliate the US, and diminish our power and standing worldwide, and it is working. Don’t be so eager for this to happen, because the long term consequence is going to be china invading Taiwan, Russia taking back the Ukraine, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia. It will be countries like Egypt inviting the Russian Fleet in. There are going to be decades of war because of the instability the Obama caused by being so feckless and weak.

Yeah, that's what Russia is there for: to stop those terrorists and governments bent on the destruction of Israel and America.

Well, except for..

Russia is there to increase its power in the ME in alliance with our enemies. It's not "We're from Russia and we're here to help." They are the enemy.
