Syria Bombs ISIS

This Blog has long been railing about the ineptitude of post 9/11 Western foreign policy (led by the US/UK), of which the mounting chaos in the Arab world and the stand-off in Ukraine are ready symptoms. Now we learn that Syria has started bombing Isis positions in Iraq. So the arch enemy Assad is now on the same side as the West. It is mostly all too late, as the chances of preserving the territorial integrity of the original Syria and Iraq are now 80% gone anyway.

The reality of the world now before us, which is not the same as the map in the State Department and the copy of it in the Foreign office, is that it will be impossible for any peace to come to any of these places within the next fifty years (think of Israel and the Palestinians) unless Iran, Syria, Russia and the West come together in a common consensus to find solutions. There really is no point in trying to move forward until this penny drops.
