Putin is fighting on the right side, against ISIS, something Obama is only pretending to do. Obama has been building up the terrorists and supplying them with arms. And of course the UN can pretty much be counted on to take the wrong side, too, since it is stuffed full of Muslim countries and Muslim lovers.

Control of the Leviathan gas field and regional pipelines. This will help bolster Russia's waning finances, and likely, help pay for the expenses involved with expeditionary forces deployed in anti-access operations.

Syria would be a nice part of the chessboard for Russia to control.

Think of it as a big base.

Turkey to the North.

Saudi Arabia is what, 50 miles to the South? And isn’t Saudi Arabia already fighting in Yemen?

Putin is making move after move on the chess board while Obama is watching cartoons.

When you lead from behind, you invite others to take the lead.

Putin is doing this for his own benefit. But as a happy coincidence, his actions are also saving the culture and lives of Middle Eastern Christians and killing Moslems — both good
