As we are (idiotically) moving towards a strike which will help Al Qaeda against Assad and his main helper, Ayatollah Khameinei (which reminds one of Jubal Early’s dictum on THOSE PEOPLE with regard to both sides) .. one has to wonder why Russia and China who seem well served MOST of the time by their amoral foreign policy actions, care about the situation in Syria.
IRAN.
Iran, the lace which has made Syria the lynchpin of its regional hegemony hopes.
Iran the place whose existence strategically threatens the allies of the USA and may one day threaten our entire worldwide actions and prerogatives.
Iran whose cat’s paws of Hezb’Allah, and the IRGC, and it’s Al Quds, freaks may turn up doing ANYTHING, ANYWHERE including attacks in the USA.
Iran, without whose existence as such a threat US plicy objectives would SEEM pre-eminent as a national force (but for the freakish salafis such as the MB, but that’s another story entirely).
So now we have China who also gets a ton of oil from Iran, and Russia, who also sells a respectable amount of hardware to Iran, warning us about attacking the key ally of an Iran who just warned us that if Syria was attacked, Israel would be the first victim.
Well, I BELIEVE IRAN. Assad is CRITICAL to them. They MUST act.
REGIONAL WAR. MINUS EGYPT (at a very key moment, neh?)
Which of course reminds me of something else for Barack Obama -

If Iran is serious, and we are prepared to do what it takes (anyone believe this of Mr. Obama?), all items can be cleared at once.
