To Putin, Assad’s enemies in Syria are the same as Russia’s in Chechnya
 [DAWN—By arrangement with The Independent] East Ghouta is Grozny. Sri Lanka ultimately unplugged the Peace Processor™, sucked it up, and destroyed the Tamil Tigers. With enemies like Shamil Basayev (Remember him? The guy who leveled a maternity hospital for the Greater Glory of Allah? Recall the Nord Ost Theater attack, Beslan, and similar atrocities?) the Russians did the same thing in Grozny. Once you take the step of accepting Assad and his govt as legitimate, the rest follows naturally, kind of. The enemy is the same, with the added element of the Islamic State and the active participation of the Moslem Brotherhood. Posted by: Fred 2018-03-09 |
