Putin takes charge, orders Russian troops to Syria after Obama's plan flops |
2015-09-29 |
[Wash Times] Vladimir Putin views the Syrian army and its Iranian allies as incapable of defeating the Islamic State in Syria, prompting the Russian president to directly intervene in recent weeks by setting up an air base and sending in tanks, artillery and jet fighters, a report to Congress says. Mr. Putin's bold yet risky move of putting troops on the ground directly confronting a terrorist group contrasts sharply with the Obama administration's strategy of an air campaign over Syria but little other military action in that country. The Islamic State controls wide sections of territory in Iraq and in Syria, where it has proclaimed a capital of Raqqa in Syria's east. Wrong doctor and wrong medicine resulting in epic fail. |

BY "RUSSIA" I ALSO MEAN CHINA + INDIA + NON-MUSLIM, ANTI-SUNNI MUSLIM WORLD. To paraph a Scene via the late PATRICK SWAYZE > "BAD? YOU BOYZ AIN'T SEEN BAD YET, BUT ITS COMING"! |

#11 Skid I would not only allow them to leave, but through back channels encourage it. Just as they leave plant a gps chip in their phone during the customs check and then when they are all settled in over there.... hand deliver them a JDAM. |

#8 Considering Putin has been successfully playing rope-a-dope with US Presidents since 2004, it isn't surprising to see him just flat out rape Obumble's plans for the region. |

#6 His foreign policy can't possibly have crashed - it would get in the way of the coronation of ValJar. |

#5 Pappy, if Zero's foreign policy objective was to emasculate the USA and turn over leadership to those he trusts more (aka Russia, China, Muslims) can we say that it has crashed and burned? It seems to me that Zero has accomplished most all of his objective in FP. Now he can concentrate on his goal to turn the US domestically into a third-world Marxist utopia. |

#4 Now that Obie's foreign policy is completely crashed and burned, he'll be able to turn his laser-like focus onto domestic issues... It's not a crash-and-burn if Mr. Obama's foreign policy objective has been to concentrate on domestic issues. |

#3 Power abhors a vacuum. (Well, at least in real history. Not to be confused with the Left's fantasy world that all the problems of the world and humanity are because of America.) |
