Putin I believe will put up to 200,000 troops in there if he has to
He will not fall and let the US mess around with them as they did before

And didn't the Vietnamese send America packing in Vietnam? Oh no wait, we are not allowed to ever mention the US losing a war, my bad!
What is your point?

Has anyone mentioned anything about Vietnam or the US ? ...In one word ...No . I believe this topic is on Russia and the middle east
Seems as if Putin forgot his own history lessons. Didnt a small US backed force of locals in Afghanistan kick their donkeys and send em packing back to the Soviet Union ?

One would think they know the 'enemy of my enemy is my 'friend' doesn't really work.
The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy.
That is gonna come back and bite them in the butt.
Neither the Sunnis or the Shia like the Israelis very much.

While it's not 'official' Saudi policy, do the jihadists who buy into this crap really care?
They'll go blow up anything they are told to, by any cleric with great glee. The allure of those 12 virgins in paradise is strong in the ignorant ones....

So as an American, can I ask your opinion of Obama's response in refusing to join Russia in all this?
I promise I won't attack, it's just we've heard virtually nothing of what the everyday American thinks on this.

Child raping? His wife Aisha was never alone (no metapher for sex) with him until she became an adult. Our Prophet (peace be upon him) raped no one. No one said that Buraq with which he ascended to the heavens is a horse. That's why it's called Buraq and not a horse. Muslims actually contributed a hell lot to science, many books were burnt by the Mongols during the invasion in Iraq, though. Algebra anyone? If you were educated (and thus contributed to humanity's progress) you would know that the names of Muslim scientists from the past pop up in every field, be it mathematics, medicine, chemistry or biology. So get your facts straight and educate yourself instead of listening to bull#. If anyone is shizrophrenic, then that's you with your fashism and ignroance. You are the true cancer cell here on the forums. What a loser.
