Who would have thought that bombing the hell out of the enemy, followed up by a ground action without insane ROE's might be effective?

Certainly not Obama...

Why people think this thug Putin is so great escapes me. Less than 30% of Russian hits are on ISIS targets. Putin us propping up a Baathist NAZI dictator in Syria who is killing his own people. Putin’s friends, the Iranians ( also Obama’s new friends) are backing the Houthi rebels in Yemen who took over our embassy there. Putin is taking over the Middle East with its oil wealth by controlling three legs of a geographical chair: Syria, Yemen, Iran.

Maybe it is just me, but, I was raised to make certain that things were going better when I left than before I arrived. Our child emperor will say yes, things are better. He is a liar.

red = Syrian Gov't
green = "moderate" rebels (al-Qaeda)
yellow = Western Kurdistan
black = ISIS

This map is from last October, but it shows the general areas of control, and why Russia had to move or lose Latakia.

As far as I’m concerned “moderate” Muslims are the tall grass in which Jihadi Terrorists hide undisturbed.

Unlike our American ‘president,’ Putin isn’t a wuss.

“Al-Nusra and other freedom-loving moderate groups ...”

Someone swallowed the wrong pill ...

In hindsight it might have been smarter to let the Russians continue to pulverize the Afghans in the 1980’s instead of supplying the missiles the helped the Muslims beat the Rusians.

Certainly not Obama

Nor any of the brain dead idiots on this forum who thought G.W. Bush’s plan to reconfigure the military for asymmetrical warfare was a good idea.

There’s at least one undeniable, positive fact resulting from Russia’s involvement in Syria: lots and lots of radical muslims are being killed.

The moderates are not the enemy. Russia is actually helping ISIS so they can restrict the flow of oil and raise prices

For 36 straight hours, the Russian Air Force has pulverized the Islamist rebel defenses in northern Homs...

After seeing that drone video of the remnants of Homs, I'm wondering what the heck is left to be pulverized.

It looks like Russia has found a more effective way of negotiating with Al-Nusra and Ahrar Al-Sham: Surrender or be turned to dust.

Few more weeks of the latter before offering the former would be ok, and a better chance of acquiescence.
