Getting militarily involved in the ME is a fools game. Muslims are split down the middle, Shia and Sunni. Then there are the individual tribes trying to get their guy to the top of the pile, like Saddam and the Baathist tribe.
We can't win and Russia will discover that again like they have in Chechnia and Afghanistan. Muslims are willing to blow themselves up to take out a handful of citizens. Let it be Russians instead of Americans or Europeans.
