Are you confused as to WTF a “moderate rebel” is? Is it led by General Cutchyerdickov, as opposed to General Lopdeheadov? Are you confused as to which group to arm?
Well, now YOU get to play the role of a warmongering Amerikan general … YOU decide!
BONUS.. you get to change who you arm every time you play the game!!
Double Bonus!! Make sure you enter the National Sweepstakes Challenge … where the winner is automatically appointed as the new Secretary Of State (bring your own e-mail server).
Looks like the Shit Parade (from Oreo’s point of view) just got significantly shittier.
Now TURKEY (the country, not the bird) is on board with Russia’s action. HAHAHA!
“In an attempt to analyze who could lend the US a helping hand in its efforts to topple the legitimate president of Syria, The New York Times had to admit that one more of Damascus’s neighbors had to be struck from the list: Turkey, it says, will “do its utmost to avoid any type of confrontation with the Russians.”
On the bright side, it is believed that Maldive and several Polynesian islands still support the USA.”
This is where I agree with Putin – it’s better to back a stable government, than to work against it, and have the country collapse – like Iraq and Libya.
Russia, China, Turkey, Syria, Iran on one side.
USA, EU, Israel, Saudi Arabia on the other.
The EU?
Germany and France have already indicated they like what Putin is doing in Russia. If the stem of Syrian refugees subsides then Putin will be a Silent Hero. If it’s reversed, they’ll crown him Lord of Lords.
Our ME friends are Israel (who suck us dry) and the Sauds (who suck ass).
Since Obama started the Syrian Civil War and Putin is ending it, make Obama give his peace prize to Putin.
Arm ’em all and let Allah (or at the very least Putin) sort it out.

Hard to believe our gov’t dimwits will sit back and do nothing; they have to be beating their heads against walls trying to figure out how to do an end run around Putin.
No way will the U.S. overtly initiate anything to confront Russia in Syria. But, I will patiently await U.S. stupidity.
How do Residents of Lakatia Feel about Russian Presence?
By Lilly Martin
We are all fine here. The whole city of Latakia has sighed a collective sigh of relief. We feel that we have a friend who has come to our aide. The various reports on Russia Today are well done and do truthfully report what is going on here.
We have not seen any ground troops. So far, it is airplanes, technicians, all the pilots and support persons needed to fly missions. It is a huge group near Latakia.
We can see and hear the jets above us. It gives us a feeling of hope. We were afraid that the coast might be attacked by the terrorists, but the Russians have saved us.
We are just now watching the news of the missiles fired from the Caspian Sea. We are all hopeful that the terrorists can be stopped. Will they run back to: Turkey; Lebanon; Jordan? What will happen to those terrorists? Will they fade into the woodwork? Will they re-group in another place and make more trouble? Will their sponsors and funders stop?
If you have time, check out what is going on in Saudi Arabia. It appears to be on the brink of regime change, or going broke. That may be the new “big” story to follow.
I am an American living permanently in Syria. I am a human rights activist. I am a medical professional, and I write on events in Syria since March 2011 which I have witnessed myself.
Stucky, where did you find that picture, its fuckin perfect. And I just hope our “leaders” in the US don’t escalate this any further than they already have. The EU is no going to be participating in a war with russia, that for certain. Im no putin fan, but I greatly enjoy him making our so called leaders look like the bumbling idiots they are. Its truly priceless.
And as far as the saudis go, I have said for a while they don’t have 5 years left. If you push all those sunni militants out of syria, which he may well do, a lot of them may return to their masters in SA, angry. Not good for the house of saud. Those who can’t make it to their jets in time will find their heads on pikes, or get ass raped with a knife ghadaffi style. SOmething else mostly unmentioned is what happens to bahrain after SA falls. Home of the Navy’s mideast fleet, and a shitload of american service members live there. They had to have saudi tanks roll across the causeway to put down the last Shia uprising there, but if the house of saud falls, no help will be coming, in fact the opposite- angry shia coming to foment revolution there, too.
Many good comments above, but Robert Siddell wins the internet today. In the unlikely event that Obama holds another press conference some day, it’d be great to hear him asked “since you started the Syrian civil war and Putin is ending it, don’t you think you should give him your peace prize?”
Love your commentary, Stuck.
Now the USA is considering imposing a no-fly zone like they did in Iraq. Er, have we invaded and taken over? I don’t think so. How then can we impose a no-fly zone that will actually fly?
This little game of chicken will devolve into escalation and the reinstatement of the draft.
Dumbass ‘dreamers’ don’t know what’s coming. My mom said a lot of illegals left the US back in the Vietnam era, afraid they would be drafted.
