#3 Nobody cares about Ukraine---but it was a chance to stick one to Russia. Maybe even deprive it of its naval access to Mediterranean---thereby winning in Syria.

#4 In my view, what is taking place in Syria is unrelated and essentially a non-issue. The west "wins" simply by sitting back and watching.

A similar strategy should be undertaken in other locations. I would offer the CAR, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Melawi, Namibia, South Africa, Cuba, and Venezuela as prime examples. Why deny totalitarianism to those who appear to enjoy it so much ?

#5 Hear, hear. Let them kill each other. And let the survivors starve.

#7 It wouldn't have done anything re: Syria because there are Russian naval bases on the Black Sea near Novorossiysk. And they're supposedly in better shape than the ones in Crimea.
