I suspect Military Times is worried (perhaps in sympathy with the administration) that Russia will waltz into Syria, behead and decimate ISIL, and restore a modicum of stability to the area in a matter of weeks. Washington will not want to field questions after that in the style of "Why have you been dicking with this for a dozen years and trillions of dollars?"

"Worlds most fearsom military"? The US? WHERE? The US Military you grey bearded oldimers remember is G.O.N.E. Obama had it decommishoned and placed in depot storage , the DRMO , or the boneyard. The Bradlys, The M-1 MBT's Agis crusers ,the USAF and most of the manpower ARE GONE. We won't fight Russia because we CAN'T. Our land force military is smaller and weaker than it was in 1938. Our Navy is smaller than it was in 1890. Anyone that tells you the US could last a week in a NON-nuke fight with Russia is an idiot , or propagandist. The whole idea is another "big lie"---Ray
