They Russians have bombed and cut off the ISIS oil tanker trucks. So effectively even we decided it was a good idea and did some truck-destroying ourselves!

Dude, the Syrian Arab Army is ON THE GROUND IN ALEPPO.

You’ve got to be smarter than this.

What are you smoking? No-one’s going to start a nuclear war because their unmanned drone ship got destroyed.

Uhhh .... this isn’t WW2, you know.

What “all hell would break loose?”

That would be too obvert. Everyone knows Assad is no Khadaffi. Syria after the wars with Israel has always been known as one of the most secular and moderate Arab nations (Imean, go ask Israel even).

We’re there to replace the Assad regime. Period.

That’s not the complete story - Russia and Ukraine are still doing business in natural gas and oil, still trading.

Uhhmm .... and what’s to stop a foreign submarine from simply taking out this drone with either a torpedo or a submarine-launched anti-ship missile?

Thank you. High praise indeed. Switched off reading about Syria today - it’s giving me a headache.

Are you saying in 1914 countries in Europe had the same level of interdependence as they do now? That’s a rhetorical question by the way, because you’re smarter than that.

Defend themselves from WHAT exactly?

Thank God Bernie Sanders wants to bring us to that level of labor rights. No defense flight on weekends!! It’s only fair people work a 32 hour week!!

Oh yeah. Saudi Arabia and the others are going to be conducting their “war game exercises” in northern Saudi Arabia, as well.

Why would Russia attack or invade Europe? The E.U. is Russia’s biggest customer group as far as Russian natural gas exports are concerned.

Yeah I mentioned that myself. It’s a bit unnerving. All they’ve done so far is issue warnings. No-one seems to be taking those warnings seriously though.

Turkey is trying to goad and provoke Russia into attacking them, so that they can pleade Article 5 of NATO.

“Anti-ISIS coalition??” LOL .... The Syrian Arab Army with the aid of Russian air support nearly has all the exits of Aleppo surrounded, and they’re close to cutting off the ISIS terrorists and other Salafist rebels there.
