1. MIC going to love this

So because Russia is beating the hell out of ISIS in Syria we want to surround Russia with NATO troops?

Am I missing something? Did we not attack and completely destroy Iraq for oil? Then there's the inconvenient truth about the pentagon memo (US to 7 countries in 5 years).

Remember it was Russia that stepped in and removed all the poison gas from Syria. We were told it was Assad killing his own people but no proof at the time and we didn't want to wait for UN inspectors. Putin took the gas and destroyed it. Turns out that gas was from the insurgents per report of UN inspectors.

NOW because Russia is actually beating ISIS they become the bad guy!
Why? Are the stories true that ISIS is funded by America? I have no idea but this mess we have created sure points that way.
MIC is salivating no doubt. Meanwhile the lives lost and future suffering for humanity in that region is deplorable.
