EU went the propaganda route in Ukraine. Russia went the military route to counter that.
And i thought the focus on Syria was ISIS? Who has almost defeated them in Syria? Why is the focus on Assad all the time when ISIS is still organizing terror attacks? Or have you forgot about the christians slaughtered in Egypt already? Or the people in Stockholm? Yet somehow Assad gets all the press while we heard NOTHING about him in western media for 15 years? Think.

Are you this foolish? You think we aren't waging a full on scale war against ISIS and all Islamic terror? It's not an enemy you just send the pacific or 7th fleet to and obliterate, they don't obey national borders, they are what we faced in Vietnam but worse. We are fighting them daily with the that little seemingly unknown base. United States Special Operations Command, MacDill Air Force Base, FL. Where all the US Army Special Forces including Detachment D-Delta Force, All 6 Seal teams and ALL US Army Ranger regiments are commanded from. Right now I bet they are in the midst of an operation killing islamic extremists. This isn't a war you win the old way. Russia knows this too, they are doing the same thing with their Special Operations Command. Why Obama said when he got his first National Security briefing in the morning that the POTUS gets daily, he was immediately like a deer in the headlights. He says so in his interview and books, there is so much going on at any given minute it's absolutely mortifying. He called it VERY sobering.
