Maybe. I could see that. But no western democracy will send their children to fight for an Islamic Republic against Russia. IT won't happen.

One article I just read said that he typically wouldn't have any security at events like this.

Crazy.

BBC is still reporting him injured. I get my news from the BBC because I'm refined and better than you.

Checks out.






And he's got go spoon feed it because apparently he could read the article, the site wouldn't let me without doing some survey. Plus, if you're going to start a thread, put some effort into the OP. Adding a pic is a huge plus, that's why I didn't downvote.

How plausible is this scenario:

1. Russia blames ISIS and uses this as a way to fully invade Syria to "destroy terror and bring peace once and for all to the people of Syria"

2. Russia attacks US backed rebels and kills US "advisors" embedded with Rebel leadership

3. Trump is now president and takes aggressive stance in his first global "crisis" to show he is no pushover like Obama. He cannot be seen getting pushed out of Syria and must also respond to deaths of US troops.

4. A series of escalations and provocations eventually lead to war with Russia
