What is Russia doing in that part of the world. Did Israel bomb the weapons that they were delivering to Syran to kill Israelis.

Whether you like it or not, Russia has as much right to ally with the Syrians as the U.S. has to ally with the UAE. Ivan has a base at Tartus.

If Iran were to start bombing the UAE I imagine the U.S. would be concerned.

In Ezekiel 38 it mentions that the biblical “Gog” will lead the coalition of nations into battle on the mountains of Israel. It is in the early stages of this battle that God makes His presence known and supernaturally ends this great battle by destroying these invading forces led by Gog who is ruling over the land of MaGog. It is believed this is Russia.

Russia has been involved in the ME as long as the US has been, and longer.

Russia has currently been promoting the stability theory, one that we used to promote. The theory of a stable sectarian, authoritarian leader is better than a "democracy", (read: mob rule quickly fundamentalist Islamic).

Russia is arming Syria to fight off Al Queda/Muslim Brotherhood ringers that will soon be backed by Turkey and the Turkish military (NATO proxy), directed by Obama.

This is a very difficult situation for Israel, their best result would be stability, which is already gone.
