Quick Look Over There!
Of course he's ignoring ISIS (right now), he's concerned about propping up an ally by wiping out the internal opposition to him, once Assad is secure then the U.S. and it's "coalition" will have no choice but to side with Assad and the Russians since it'll be that or side with ISIS, IMHO it's a rather straightforward strategy and one that's likely to be effective given the current circumstances. If he's successful he'll also demonstrate to the world what a wishy-washy ally the U.S. is and that we cannot be counted on to follow through with our commitments to protect and support people like the Syrian Resistance to Assad.Actually on the other thread I post a list of the name(s)..
The only name on that list that Putin is pretty much ignoring is ISIS..
Putin is a ruthless, evil prick but he seems to know what he's doing with respect to taking advantage of opportunities abroad.
Obama is a far left drone that has made the US look weak and pathetic in that region of the world, worse than Carter..
However Putin needs the conflict with ISIS to keep going so that the refugees will flood into Europe and max out their socialistic systems..
Not to mention that now that any sanctions the US has put on Russia has been undone as the Russians sell military arms to many countries in that region..
