You've pretty much hit it on the head, except you neglected to mention that Russia has, also, been funding groups over there for God knows how long too.

Just use the ME like a giant checkers game, see who gets all the pieces.

Also, Russia has not necessarily been targeting ISIS.

Well, yeah, but there's always a discrepancy on who somebody says is getting bombed and who they actually bomb to get what they actually want.

Kinda funny our only real source of that info is the people doing it.

Chess is better, although checkers is more wild and fast and fun. And stupid.

There you have the reason I said checkers, not chess. We'd never know that they were playing till the end, if it were chess. If they were competent, anyway. ;P
