Brits are freaking

Military Review, “the professional journal of the U.S. Army,” has reluctantly and indirectly said that Russia won the Syria war. The Review declared that Russia saw what happened to Gaddafi back in 2011, and they realized that something had to be done in order to stop the “regime change” ideology in the Middle East. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov declared then,

“Some leaders of the coalition forces, and later the NATO secretary-general, called the Libyan operation a ‘model’ for the future. As for Russia, we will not allow anything like this to happen again in the future.”[1]

The Review declared quite rightly that there was a “firm belief among Russian elites that Assad’s downfall would result in IS and al-Qaida affiliates taking over the country, spelling disaster for the region and creating a potential superhighway for Sunni extremists into Turkey and the Caucasus.”[2]
