I've seen a quite different version of these pictures. By the way, your picture of Obama on a horse....the horse is actually a mule if you look closely.
I'm still trying to figure out why we should give a **** about a country with a GDP smaller than that of Oklahoma City and crude oil reserves amounting to 8% of the U.S. total. Here's a depiction of the strategic environment:
Yeah, I think the U.S. and its allies will manage just fine in the event that Russia forestalls the collapse of the Assad regime.
Obama made destabilizing the middle east and north Africa so Islamists could take over the centerpiece of his foreign policy. He even managed to overrun Europe with muslims in the process.
A couple years ago, when Putin tried to put a halt to the overthrow of Assad, the Obama administration engineered a coup in Ukraine to distract Putin's attention, and gave O the opportunity to get some white people killed in a proxy war.
Now, all those dreams are done. Over. Fini.
The question that remains is: what destruction will O engineer next in response to this? You know his ego won't let him let this go.
And my personal thanks to Europeans ( that goes to Italians and Germans first of all) for all their moral and material support to the bombed population of Donbass, betrayed by "humanity" and Putin.
It's encouraging to see that some people don't buy official propaganda and in this particular case don't believe in "new democratic Ukraine" that keeps on sending punitive battalions with Fascist insignia to the Eastern part of its country.
Are you okay with Putin backing al-Assad and taking out ISIS in Syria? Should Israel be worried?
Israel is in bed with Putin on this, Israelis are OK with Assad or endless civil war keeping Arabs occupied. I doubt Israel will rush to return the occupied territories to a hypothetically democratic Syria. I dont recollect Israel condemning any Russian Imperial adventure in the past 24 years, to the hell with great American "ally" and its ostentatious "concerns" over recent Russian agressions.

Israel is staying out of the conflict. There is no clean side on a turd as all parties are enemies towards the Israeli's. Because of that, Israel has remained neutral. By the way, Israel is in no way shape or form allies with Assad.

Not really. Israel is far more powerful than Syria ever was, certainly that is the case now. They're glad that ISIS and other such groups will be eliminated. But there is still conflict over the Golan, and Israel is worried about increasing Iranian presence in that area. However, I think for them the most pressing issue is getting rid of radical Sunnis.
Regarding Russia's actions in Syria, I agree with Donald Trump's view on this.
everything is a problem for Israel.... lets stop the foreign aide see if they can handle that problem. they don't have a problem bombing Gaza...
They bomb Gaza because the Palestinians refuse to cease being terrorists. And by the way, many in Israel don't want the foreign aid because they don't need it and because it keeps them beholden to some of America's policies. They would do fine on their own. They develop most of their weapons by themselves now and sell it to us, to India, and to many other countries.
