NATO is already falling apart. They will probably lose (will have to kick) Turkey out of the union and Turks will take sides with Putin.
Saudi's are having troubles with USA, they may also change sides.
Syria is with Russia since the beginning. They are not stupid, they know USA made ISIS up to take their land and oil.
Putin is gaining new friends everyday. Who is going to fight for USA and EUR? McDonald's fatties? On the other hand; Iran, Russia, Turkey, Syria... all of those countries do know how to fight.
I think Russia is reorganizing itself and becoming stronger everyday as they have a strong and dependable leader like Putin. I like Putin being firmed and decisive leader. Now they are also a force to reckon with as they might challenge USA in the future or I think it already begins when the take over Crimea?
