Syria and IS - New War on Terror 2


Lets Get Real:

Thus more land taken by IS, the civil war in Syria is very murky to say the least, you have IS, Al Qaeda, secular rebels and the planned US supported rebels.   The Obama Oval is at fault here also, when the resistance started in Syria against Assad it was secular, the lack of US and Western action allowed more extreme groups to develop, also it saw the rise of IS.   It will take some good diplomacy and good troops to solve the mess in Syria, on top of that you  have have Iran and Russian interests in Syria, the Russians have a warm water navel base in Syria, it can be argued that Putin wants to keep that, so he still supporting Assad.  The Tehran interest is is keeping Assad in power as they share the same religious outlook.   The kettle has boiled over in Syria and Iraq, its a bloody mess.
