This is a country who's government wants their support and presence and a government that will be far more stable with increased Russian presence. Russia , at the expense of zero lives is now consolidating their presence in Syria and neighboring Iran and will have far more influence there than we will after 15 years of war and trillions of dollars spent. This is a huge win for Russia , Syria and Iran. We now have the worst of the areas countries , backed by Russia with international approval. Its like we built a highway between Russia , Syria and Iran. Todays little poo poo blunder by Obama is now turning into the best case scenario for rogue Islamic Terrorists who will exploit this windfall far beyond any of our lifetimes. We have cemented a base of power for Russia in the area.

You forgot about the ferrets.
