Why don't you actually read what's going on. The Russians are only going after the people opposing Assad. They aren't helping Christians or ending ISIS.

And the Iranians that they are doing it for are also Muslims.

No, the Russians just don’t share our silly idea that ISIS is the only problem and that shop the other rebels are OK. Assad is the only sane answer there unless one wants a sunni theocracy.

Good!!! Assad was keeping the islamo filth in control until zero and his henchmen tried to protect them. Don’t be a DinDuNuffin against all of islamo filth.

Nonesense. The “people opposing Assad” are alQaeda whom we and our evil “allies,” Turkey, the Gulf States, and Saudi Arabia are supporting.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/russia-says-international-meeting-for-syria-cease-fire-cancelled/2016/02/19/47179aac-d692-11e5-a65b-587e721fb231_story.html

“One of the many problems to be overcome is a differing definition of what constitutes a terrorist group. In addition to the Islamic State and Jabhat al-Nusra, al-Qaeda’s affiliate in Syria, Russia and Syria have labeled the entire opposition as terrorists. [which they are]

Jabhat al-Nusra, whose forces are intermingled with moderate rebel groups in the northwest near the Turkish border, is particularly problematic. Russia was said to have rejected a U.S. proposal to leave Jabhat al-Nusra off-limits to bombing as part of a cease-fire, at least temporarily, until the groups can be sorted out.”

Ib other words, our “moderate rebels” are “intermingled” with al-Nusra, i.e., fighting right alongside them.

Meanwhile, our “moderate rebels,” backed by the CIA, are fighting the Kurdish YPG, backed by the Pentagon! “U.S. Proxies in Syria are Attacking Each Other.”

The US presence is Syria is totally illegal, unlike the Russian presence at the invitation of the internationally recognized government. If Assad falls (see Iraq (Saddam) and Libya), alQaeda and ISIS take over, not the League of Women Votgers.
