thats not a question.
who? outside of russia?
its no secret america has every intention of destrabilizing, overthrowing and ultimately killing assad. i hope it happens tomorrow.
who cares who it is if it democratic. all the nice people of the country fled because of assad, so not much to choose from. just a warm body to keep the peace, let them vote... but first assad gets blown up to allow a vote.
russia attacked the same opposition groups that assad dropped the chemical weapons on. i'm confused as to how you were this misled by rt news.
yes, it was quite necessary to counter the inhuman slaughter of the ussr with helicopter gun ships on innocent civilians, thankfully that worked and ussr stopped.
maybe, but no because he invalidated that by launching missiles equiped with sarin gas at a civilian neighborhood that killed 1,700 women and children like cockroaches. so we wont speak of international law anymore comrade.
have you not noticed how purposefully and calmly america has intentionally stayed out of this? no chance of groundtroops, nobody in america wants to be in a war with al qaeda, assad, free syrian army.
he is effectively keeping america out of this fight, how is america getting outmanuevered? america has putin right where they want him. sanctioned, hurting from oil prices *(thanks saudi) and now over extended in ukraine and syria.
