Syrian war games

The Russian government may start war against the ISIL, a fanatic organisation fighting against the Syrian government of President Assad.. For this, troops, fighter planes and T-20 tanks have been mobilized in the civil war torn country wherein about 2,50,000 people had been killed in four years and about 2.30 crore people fled for safety. But it is not known what will be the decision of the Ex.Communist country about the Al-Qaeda backed Nusra Front and the US backed rebel troops. Again what will the USA do if Russia attacks the US backed rebel troops?
Are we heading towards a nuclear war? Is President Bladimir Putin desperate to establish his country as a big challenge to the USA? The former KGB Chief is now behaving like an ultra-nationalist leader which the USA may not endorse, resulting in a dangerous conflict. In this connection, the US war mongers must remember that their mainland will be subjected to the war devastation this time because Russia will be their foes unlike the First and the Second World Wars.
But the Syrian President is surely well aware that former Soviet Union betrayed with the Arab World twice in the years 1967 and 1973. The treachery role convinced most of the Arab nations including the Egypt to turn to the USA, the protector of Israel.
We shall, therefore, request the UNO and the OIC to work jointly to hold negotiation for a peaceful solution of the crises burning the Arab World and withdrawal of all foreign troops, including the ISIL and the Nusra Front, from Syria.
