The nailing of the seventy-two virgins should definitely be open to interpretations.

250k civilians dead in months after his death. Ironicaly enough entire operation in Libya was called to save human lives.

NATO will never, ever be an ally of Russia. Simply because it is against the very idea of NATO. Also this ass-clown... what is his name again? ah yes Jens Stoltenberg will have his anus exploded if somebody would even mention such idea on official level.

Also not to forget that Iran has its interests in Syria. Israel has its issues with Hezbollah. NATO means Turkey, and Turks have too much profit from what is going on now. Plus Turkey are not very happy with Kurds.

France has now bombed the main Isis stronghold in Syria. If that's all that happens, it won't be enough. I don't see how the NATO allies can avoid a full scale war. Ugly days ahead. If I could reenlist, I would.

uhhh why?

Now this coalition led by US is bombing IS for 13 months without much success... This is strange because we all can agree that US of A is a powerful country with a powerful army, fleet and air forces. US is a powerful enough to cut IS income. Because this "cheap oil" thing requires specialists, infrastructures, logistics and overall supply lines. And for some reason US of A can't annihilate IS? Really? US want something to gain.

On the other hand Putin is bombing IS to ash, which means he actually want something to gain from Syrian theatre as well, and this something is very different from what Obama's goverment want.

Russia's stake in this conflict is the preservation of a Russia-friendly Syrian government so that they can maintain and operate their naval facilities in the Port City of Tartus. Tartus is capable of docking Aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines, and allows Russia to bypass Turkey's (NATO's) grip on the Bosphorous strait. This allows Russia to gain access to the Mediterranean, as well as parts of the Middle East and North Africa without intervention or blockade.

This is also the US' primary interest in Syria. As if the United States give a shit about ISIS when they're buddies with Saudi Arabia, the place where most extremist Islamic sentiment is fermented and funded.

I'm not trying to say that Russia dindu nuffin or anything. I'd rather live in America than Russia. But it's not a good vs evil proposition. It's two powerful factions manipulating events and ideology around the world for the purposes of becoming more powerful.

ISIS and other extremist groups are merely weapons that they throw at one another. They're doubled edged, haphazard weapons, but weapons nonetheless.

seeing ISIS gone. So why it is not gone? Where is this 5th American fleet that supposed to be brought to the shores of Belarus? (Psaki reference here)

About russian plane. Why you are so sure it was a bombing? For the same reason why MH17 was shot down by separatists?

See there is trend of some sorts. Starting with glass of virus brought to UN, ending with Obama's speech based on UN report about chemical attack in Syria in order to replace Asad. Again Asad is dictator who was bombing his own people. Who is a Poroshenko then? Sanctioned mass murderer?

Not to forget about Obama's speech at latest UN summit.

Not you not i know the reasons why this all happening in Syria. But it is sure as hell not about ISIS as its primary goal.

As for access to Mediterranean for Russia... Russia need it because?.. why?
