Ever occur to you this is what the yanks want...you ever wondered as to why isis fighters were just walking freely through turkey....ever wondered as to why they were receiving medical from their injuries in turkey....ever wodered as to why turkey was supplying them US arms....ever wondered as to why if the yanks were against isis allowed all of the above...especially turkey giving freely US arms to isis and the US staying silent when they were supposed to be against isis?

So who is responcible for isis?....the russians, the chinese...who exactly?


No Boomer, I consider FOX News to be similar. I take most things from there with a pinch of salt just like Russia Today. Press TV is also just as bad.

FOX News is full of crap and has a Republican Agenda. Murdoch has some other outlets which are ok. The Australoan for instance is good. But FOX News caters to a particular a do Christian/conservative market.

Turkey has been playing a pretty dodgy role in the crisis. They want to get rid of Assad now. The Yanks are not so eager because they know things could be worse.

But at the same token, Turkey has attacked ISIS on its border regions many times.

Events taking place at the moment in the Middle East are highly complex and full of paradoxes and contradictions. No simple, blanket conspiracy theory is capable of accounting for their every twist and turn. At least in my humble view.

the policy used has not changed for centuries. it is called your enemy's enemy is a friend no matter what that friend is like and is used by every body including the stupid yanks. that explains everything that is going on in the world today.

The al Assad family has ruled Syria since 1970, brutal it may well have been but Syria had more than 40 years of stability.

The West, America in particular, has made a dreadful miscalculation in voicing and actively supporting elements wishing the removal of Bashir al Assad. A dictator he is indeed but no other form of governance ever existed in Syria or indeed in the entire ME region.

Russia has every reason to support Assad and the West fully understands Russia's position.

A few years back our own PM supported the use of troops to overthrow Assad, a naïve and inexperienced statesman who was subsequently defeated by Parliamentary vote.

No one in the right mind would now support the removal of " STABILTY" in Syria given the huge loss of life, millions of refugees and an uncertain future.

Let us hope, for the sake of the millions of Syrians, that stability and peace returns to Syria, but first the barbaric savages calling them selves Isis must be eliminated.
