Wanna bet they’re really helping Erdogan kill Kurds?
Russia doing what Obama is too scared to do.
Going to be interesting seeing what the Russians do here. They won’t go against ISIS using the same rules and restraint as the West.
I heard a lot of stuff about how the Soviets operated, covertly, in Lebanon and Beruit in the 1980s. Specifically why they didn’t have the kind of hostage-taking problem the US and other countries did.
JV team.
Okay, is it just me, or should this be considered a MAJOR news story?
Gog and Magog.
What’s that I recall about “leaving a vacuum”?
What could go wrong?
I can't understand how these Russian trolls (YOU! and others) are allowed to remain on this site.

Officials: Iran nuclear deal fuels Middle East arms race, boosts Russias influence

Put my hook in your jaw and draw you forth
Ez 38:38 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of[a] Meshek and Tubal; prophesy against him 3 and say: This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of[b] Meshek and Tubal. 4 I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with your whole armyyour horses, your horsemen fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields, all of them brandishing their swords. 5 Persia, Cush[c] and Put will be with them, all with shields and helmets, 6 also Gomer with all its troops, and Beth Togarmah from the far north with all its troopsthe many nations with you.
7 Get ready; be prepared, you and all the hordes gathered about you, and take command of them. 8 After many days you will be called to arms. In future years you will invade a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and now all of them live in safety. 9 You and all your troops and the many nations with you will go up, advancing like a storm; you will be like a cloud covering the land.
A June article by Max Seddon of BuzzFeed reported the Kremlin was spending millions of dollars to pay English-speaking Russians to promote President Vladimir Putin and his policies in U.S. media like Fox News broadcasting and The Huffington Post and Politico news sites. Trolls are reportedly expected to manage multiple fake accounts and post on news articles 50 times a day, often with sentiments as simplistic as Putin makes Obama look stupid and weak!

They do this only in an attempt to win the trust of anti-Obama folks -- a clever/sneaky way to add credibility to their pro-Russia, pro-Putin BS.
Yet it seems to work on some of us! In reality, Obama is the best thing that has happened to Russia in a long time.

Putin crossing a big red line versus Obama . . .
So much for our influence in the area if they succeed. In my opinion this is also about sending a message to the Saudis . . . cut back on oil shipments or we’ll do it for you.
Where’s that Red Line, 0bama?
At least the Russians won’t screw around or apologies for bombing these trash into the next life.
It will be interesting to see if they go after the Kurds however.
If Russia’s doing this - good for them...
Russia moves to solidify Russia-Iran-Syria axis in Middle East.
I think Russia has been standing by waiting for the bad boys to deplete each other’s resources, then they will move in for the easy pickings, pleading that the chaos is a threat to regional stability. They have to move while Obama is still there to facilitate.
The Chinese are also talking about joining the effort in Syria against ISIS, and will likely send in their forces to assist soon.
