Bye bye ISIS

[OwlHoot]

They have their own transport company too, that might be a good start!

and a skin care salon in Dulverton, Devon ISIS Wellbeing

Clearly far-sighted digging in for the long term, whatever happens in the Middle East.

They're ******* everywhere, has anyone told Cameron (or the next PM Jezza)?

The rise of ISIS is Russia's fault in the first place. By continuing to support the Assad regime the Free Syrian army never could succeed, the chaos this created opened the door for ISIS to grow

Actually its the fault of USA buddies like Saudi, UAE etc.. who are funding ISIS. Than the bonehead that is Obama thought Assad could be taken down by some third party who would than salute the USA and buy American arms and food. That's worked out well hasn't it. because it is ISIS using American arms.

All good for US arms sales, which is pretty much the US economy.

If Russia just had supported Europe and the US in bringing down Assad and stopped sending arms, three years ago, there would be a new government now and ISIS wouldn't have a chance to rise

Keep Assad, let Putin obliterate ISIS and get the **** outta that place. Let Israel sink or swim without US help. Don't worry its all governed by a divine power who will make sure its all kushty

I think that is a bit naive to suggest. There are new governments in Iraq and Afganistan, hasnt stopped the rise of militant groups. There is a reason why some of these countries havent got democracy and have only seen dictators ruling them. They are very fragmented and fragile and seem to engage in civil conflicts fairly regularly.

There is a Russian naval base in Syria, the only such base in that region - it will fall after Assad is out

Turkey and USA already said they will provide air support to opposition that fights Assad
