Supposedly to fight ISIS. Legit or do they have something up their sleeve?? Discuss.

Describing the arrival of Russian military personnel in Baghdad, one senior U.S. official said, "They are popping up everywhere."

They swoop in and fight ISIS the way they should be fought and are the heroes of the region. Then they replace the US as the primary ally of the middle east.

I really wish we just let Russia do their thing there, let them lose Billions in the sandbox for a while. We just help out the Hebrews and the Oil companies and peace out on everyone else.

I have a question. Israel doesn't have any oil so how do we help out the Hebrews and oil companies if Russia becomes the primary ally of the oil-producing nations? When Gazprom becomes the company of choice what will you be saying?

Most of our oil doesn't come from the middle east
