If the US would not have any stake in this, your logic would be correct.Okeefenokee wrote:If you think about it, it's not really a big deal.

One would think that the big deal would have been if the US once again was dealing with a problem who's neighbors had neglected to remedy.
But hell, it's goddam having troops fighting there, has been bombing there too. So yeah, the US is "a bit" involved here.
Hence your argument isn't at all valid. It's really a big middle finger waived by all other participants in the face of uncle Sam, if you don't get it.
It should be time for the US to act as a leader, because I bet it doesn't want Russia to take the leadership role in the Middle East.
