I don't think anyone knows how to deal with the erratic nature of the Syrian conflict and the complex problems of that region of the world. Those people appear to be in a perpetual state of conflict BY CHOICE. They don't seek peace within, and don't know how to work towards peace. Putin is reeling from economic sanctions, seeking leverage, a favorable response from the international community, and an end to sanctions. As a regional power, not a global power, Russia is in no position to challenge the US. Economically, they are in no position for a sustained military effort.
I think it's smart for President Obama to proceed as he is doing. Republicans don't have a better plan and have never shown to have an effective foreign policy. You Pubs need to leave these matters to the heavy hitters. President Obama and his fine staff are taking care of this matter.
There is much truth in your post. But your concluding sentence is pure fantasy. They're coming, all right. And they hate our guts.
They're already here to an extent, but if Trump wins I don't think they get here. Any other president will let our "allies" come in droves like we did for the Vietnamese. They were a great addition, but I don't think the Afghanis would be.

Putin is seeking a Mediterranean base. Obama has neither the smarts nor the cajones to stop him. Nature abhors a vacuum, and the biggest vacuum going right now is that created by Obama's utter incompetence in foreign policy. Awarded the SOS to Hillary as a consolation prize was bad enough -- naming the appeaser Kerry as her successor sent a symbol that Obama lacks seriousness. Is it any winder that the bad actors in the world are calling his bluff?
Uh, no......how big his jets are. The ones raining down bombs as Putin warns Obama to stay away.
Man, you've got sexual issues...
So you are saying Russia bombed Syria to tell the US to stay away? That is like setting your lawn on fire to get the neighbor dog to stop peeing in your yard. Way to go Putin.
Me have sexual issues? I am not the one who gets all warm between the legs when I see a shirtless picture of Putin, he seems to only do that to conservatives who seem to think of him as some sort of hero.
Tell you what. Elect me President, and I'll manage it. But the guy we've got now couldn't find his ass with both hands.
How's that for an example?
I am actually curious how you would manage Syria if elected president?
