Re: Iranians are fighting in Syria
The US wasn’t stopped by Russia, it was the British Parliament voting against British participation, the eunuchs of the Arab League not endorsing punitive action, the lack of international allies and most of all, the American + Congress being opposed to another costly war after Afghanistan and Iraq, which stopped the US from attacking. If Russia was so powerful then why couldn’t it stop the bombing of Serbia or the invasion of Iraq?
Assad has played his hand deftly…I’ll give him credit for that. As for Israel. as much as it wants to hurt the Iranians, it also hesitant to see a Sunni extremist/Al Qaida type government take power in Syria. Bashar Assad may act like a lion of Damascus against his own people, but he knows his limits against the Isrealis. Provoke Israel and the Assad regime is done.
