Ukraine renounced its nuclear arsenal against the certitude of its territorial integrity being respected. Russia violated its commitment and words.

Assad killed the Syrian population, Russia support him.

The Kurds live in peace in a tolerant and equal society. Fought Isis and the other Sunni and Shia supremacists with force. Russia support Assad in killing the kurds.

So as Russia under Putin think to be the baddest gangster of the block with his chineses and Iranians friends, maybe even the Turks...

I think it's time to engage. Sooner or later if they get stronger they will not hesitate to attack America. As the asymmetry is in total favor of the us military... Russians, Iranians and all the Assad allied and him too have to be killed.

Once America will call the bluff of Putin and his friends the goal is not to raise, there is no more game, but death, destruction and chaos. Exactly for what the us army is designed.

No fly zone over all Kurds controlled territory where ever they are. Opposition can speak but not acts or die.

Death is the only thing the opponents of the American Empire understand.
