Because ISIS / Daesh are a bunch of lily-livered cowards who can only kill unarmed civilians and behead powerless prisoners!

The opinion here in Lefkorossia, Belarus, where I arrived on Sunday last for a few days, is that Russia and America in private are in full agreement on the recent developments, ie the Russian military actions.

The Russians have no stomach for the savages calling themselves Isis.

I believe that the USA as well as other Western nations have at last realized that Syria can only return to some stability with Assad the dictator at its helm.

The USA as well as Britain showed themselves to be utterly naïve in even considering the removal of Assad and handing over the nation to multiple fractions , each with its own agenda.

Democracy is not compatible with any ME country, it simply will not work, it has never worked throughout history. Dictatorship is the only viable government in this part of the world.

Do you think Putin might be a show pony?

No that is impossible. We can only support Assad being at the helm for a short period of transition which the coalition is willing to negotiate with the Russians.

If Assad remains, then I am afraid there can never be stability in Syria because the majority of the Sunni population don't want him. If Putin is smart, he will not waste anymore time and begin negotiations with the coalition about this transition and then the Coalition and Russia can coordinate their effort against DAESH and Al Nusra which will be the only rebels that will in all likelihood continue to fight. By negotiating with the coalition, Russia can protect its interests as long as those interests do not involve Assad, I think the coalition would be happy.

Russia can keep ground troops in Damascus to ensure a smooth transition and protect its interests. The coalition would probably prefer they have their troops in Syria as the coalition don't want to get stuck there if things go pear shaped. But if it is a good transition, then hopefully there is no reason for it to go pear shaped.

Also burning prisoners alive, wrapping plastic explosive to their heads and detonating it, placing other prisoners in a cage and lowering it into a pool until they drown, and using young kids to shoot others in the back of the head (the most humane method).

Also, they continue to destroy Ancient Sites in and around Palmyra. Beautiful Ancient Assyrian sites are lost to humanity forever.

Nothing more hideous than DAESH.

Who do you think will replace Assad !!! You are as naïve as the USA and West have thus far shown. Syria under Assad was relatively peaceful albeit a dictatorship. Replace him with whom ? Another dictator much more cruel and blood thirsty no doubt. Russia and China have been correct all along.

We don't care who replaces him as long as it's some kind of coalition effort that comprises and represents Alawites, Sunnis, and Christians.

There are probably hundreds of candidates in Syria with the right attributes to spearhead a National Unity Government or elect who the majority of Syrians want. What is NOT a good idea, is to have an Alawite Government repressing the Sunnis, or a Sunni Government repressing the Alawites and Christians.

These are all things to be discussed at the negotiating table. But at that table, you need to also bring the majority of all rebel groups together. Obviously some groups like DAESH will not but that is ok. The Syrian Armed Forces, Russia and Coalition can liquidate them in a coordinated effort.

Frankly, I think you should FUCK OFF to Syria and just go blow yourself up with the rest of your American-backed mates! :lol:

Do you really think you can switch sides just like that after hundreds of junk posts you littered this forum with, for years? :roll:

Yeah right... :lol:

Based on the above thesis, why do you not support Daesh taking over the whole region and establishing their brutal brand of dictatorship?

Unlike your psycho brain that thrives on an immeasurable amount of hatred towards America and the West, my logic dictates what is wrong and what is right. I'm on record right here on the Cyprus forum utterly disagreeing with the USA and Britain's approach to Syria. I do not blindly support all actions of either, you on the other hand with much of your psychotic brain readily attacks all USA and Western policies driven by your incessant and rather sick hatred you often display. The one heading off to Syria for a ...blow job is none other that you, the fucking psycho, the only reason that you manage to somehow function is your inability to use logic, instead you use your shit brain, you uneducated fucking dwarf !!
