    Russia and Iran are major players. It's a Russian client state

    That was the plan all along. Putin won from the beginning and now he will keep on winning. Our Manchurian Candidate if the office is following his programming.

    What Putin has on Trump must be enormous. The military and even Repubs are against what he is doing.

    Dude that is not even the concern.

    The main concern is if the Russians do a deal with the Kurds, that will put them basically at war with Turkey- A NATO country that we will have to help defend.

    Or, perhaps it's time we just toss Turkey out of NATO and let the Russians have fun bombing the shit out of them.

    Russia has it's only overseas naval base in Syria. They signed a 49 year agreement for full use and authority over the base in 2017. Virtually every bullet fired from every AK-47 used by every one of Assad's troops has a Russian accent. Syria made a Faustian bargain with Putin a long time ago. Let him have his shit hole and good riddance. I want to see what NATO and the UN does when Russia and Turkey start shooting at each other, I predictdeer-in-the-headlights-deer-in-the-headlights-png-700_350.jpg

    Russia, Assad, Iran, and Turkey will all be at the Negotiating Table with the Kurds (SDF). The US will be outside the tent looking in.
