WASHINGTON — Russia is using the waning days of the Obama administration to strengthen President Bashar al-Assad’s hold on power, expand the territory he controls in Syriaand constrain the options of the next American president in responding to the civil war, according to a number of American officials and Russian analysts.
The strategy of President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia, they say, is to move aggressively in what he sees as a prime window of opportunity — the four months between now and the 2017 presidential inauguration — when Mr. Putin calculates that the departing President Obama will be unlikely to intervene in the escalating Syrian conflict and a new American president who might consider a tougher policy will not yet be in office.
You're supposed to be smarter than he is, Obama, he should be wondering, "What that fox Obama going to do?" Instead, he has read you like a first-grade book: this is all true, isn't it?
“Putin is in a hurry before the American elections,” said Nikolai V. Petrov, a political scientist in Moscow. “The next American president will face a new reality and will be forced to accept it.”
American intelligence analysts have told the White House that the Russian goal is to help the Syrian military retake the besieged city of Aleppo so that Moscow can resume talks on Syria’s future on vastly stronger terms, according to administration officials who asked not to be identified because they were discussing classified assessments.
...
...there is every indication that [Putin] sees Syria as a strategic interest.
...
"Russian officials and intellectuals have told me directly that they believe Hillary Clinton would be more likely to use force in Syria than President Obama,” said Andrew J. Tabler, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. “The seizure of Aleppo would be a fait accompli for the next American president.
Everything in this article is true and was predictable! That is what really frosts me. The Russians are concrete, unsophisticated, amoral thinkers. They have always been that way. Consequently, eminently predictable. But the Obama's didn't predict it!
This was not the outcome the White House envisioned a year ago when the Russians began to build up their air forces in Syria. At first, the State Department sought to block the deployment by asking Bulgaria and other nations to close their airspace.
Oh yeah! The fucking Bulgarians! "We'll show Putin. Hey Bulgaria, close your airspace to the Russians, whydoncha." "He" (Bulgarian for "No.").

Who thinks like that? And why are they running American foreign policy?
But the White House soon concluded that it was pointless to try to stop the Russian buildup, and some officials even thought it might even push Moscow toward a search for a political solution.

Remember that? I remember that. I think I swallowed that Obama pap my ownself. "Yeah, well, maybe the Russians can be our partner in 'peace.'"
Put down your crack pipes! (He says to himself and the Obama's.)
Look, I mean this seriously, I joke about the Russians having brains the size of their eyeballs because I don't think they're very smart! That's what I really think! And there is nothing about how they have conducted their campaign in Syria that causes me to rethink that judgment in the slightest. They are calculating, opportunistic, strategic, concrete, unsophisticated, amoral, and as a consequence, PREDICTABLE!
But we didn't predict it. We predicted Bulgarians and Partners in Peace. If you get outmaneuvered by the Russians, and the Obama's have, not just now in Syria, if you can't think three or more steps ahead of the RUSSIANS! then YOUR brain is as big as your eyeball. That's YOU, Obama.
I don't want to think what bird pumps he has committed toward a sophisticated-thinking country, CHINA!
Now you're in Syria, Obama, what are you going to do now? I'm not waiting up for the answer. Food night. Pisses me off. Now I gotta go to bed PISSED OFF! GrrRR!
