Not a chance. Putin put a stop to Obama's war plans last time around just by deploying a few naval assets to the region. With Russia troops and planes already there in the fight? He'd have to be absolutely insane to attack now. Russia is not fucking around on this issue. They're in the right here and they're not going to back down.

You seem to be unaware that Obama tried to use a false flag chemical weapons attack (perpetrated by the very rebels the US and pals were supplying) as an excuse to bomb Syrian government forces a year or so ago. Now Obama is at it again, this time using Russian involvement as an excuse to increase American involvement in the Syrian civil war. Whereas before, Russia intervened and forced Obama to back down, this time Russia is already there, making their seriousness on the matter that much more clear. They will press Obama to back down once again and are in a much stronger position to do so, especially with ISIS being a coherent threat now, which they weren't before.
