i don't anyone fucking trusted erdogan. i think assad just genuinely hoped putin would protect him, while putin rightfully fucking assumed that assad would protect his own fucking country, after he, putin, fucking secured it for him after 5 years! ... oh well. this just shows that russia has no partners, except china. i've been saying for some time now - russia seriously needs to stop treating everyone like human beings. us has the right idea. most nations are fucking subhumans, wanting to be ruled and told what to fucking do. syria is clearly one of those nations. so, get rid of assad, get a russian guy, with russian name in. and everyone will be genuinely happier that way.
