    Russia is more effective at fighting Isis because they don't give two fucks about the environmental implications of bombing Isis oil fields and they have less strict rules in minimizing civilian casualties.

    Not saying it's all good, just saying why they're so much more effective than we are.

        Doubt the democrat run lamestream media would ever report it. Should Russia indeed turn ISIS into a JV team, Obama would get credit for his shrewd strategic policies that helped stabilize the Middle East....and libtards like Woodley and Cleve would eat that shit up.

        I don't consider CNN democratic. But I do like that blonde on the Fox channel that's about it.

                Maybe my memory is playing tricks on me, but I do seem to recall plenty of people saying things like "other countries need to take the lead" and "why should we always be the world police" - now that might be happening, people are still complaining?

                  People aren't complaining, they're voting for Trump enthusiastically who talks about everybody not paying their fair share and cooperating with Russia.

                    Ironically that was one of the sociological points in A Clockwork Orange.

                    Breakdown of English society and spread of Russian influence. The younger generation adding more and more Russian words to their slang? (Ohio natives in East Ohio wearing Steelers shirt?) Anyway if Americans are tired being the world's policeman then someone else will step up.

                    Personally I prefer to be a world power. Not everyone agrees.

                      It's possible to be a world power without always resorting to military interventions.

                        I actually can agree with other countries taking the lead, and am glad Russia did what it did....but part of my point in the OP was strictly about the kid gloves approach our military is being forced to take evident by the stark contrast in kills between Russia and the U.S.

                        God forbid Israel takes the lead to you liberals though, you get your panties all knotted up even when they defend themselves.

                            Always?

                            I suppose. But as you know I don't like using terms like always or never.

                            But military superiority is good to have when you need it.

                                We shouldn't be the world's police. There are only a few instances of the locals being keen on us protecting them. Thus, fuck them. Become a U.S. citizen and we will protect you.

                                  We can support our allies, but basically none of our NATO allies pay the 2% GDP requirement on self defense.

                                  They need to be willing to help themselves

                                    It is indeed, but it's not always necessary to use it for people to know it. In this case, you can let other countries take some of the slack. The US and (and the UK in part) have been leading this fight for too long. And yes, our hands have been tied somewhat by our civility, by which, as has been pointed out the russians are not constrained. Perhaps now Daesh will start attacking Russia? Perhaps not, they have a lot in common after all.

                                      It's pretty dumb to compare Isis to Russia, tbh. Russians have a strong nationalist sense and despite being tough/brutal they tend to do what they think is best for their country/people.

                                      If they try to attack the Russian homeland they'll get shut the fuck down, they'll get given free housing, food, and health care from the US and European countries as they plan their attacks on our homeland.

                                      But the fact is there's been far more terrorist attacks in Europe lately and those are the countries using the pussy green environment-friendly warfare. As well as giving them housing and all that stuff.

                                        What I meant by the comparison is the dictatorial, no tolerance for anything remotely different, plus very anti gay/equality/whatever.

                                        Vodka of course is a big separator.
