MPR post: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xN-_fuEdi0 Putting Syria’s Conflict in Context: Reality on the Ground Driving Difficult Decisions].
Brian Beretic calls Sufi Islam "a politically motivated perversion of Islam". Does Brian eat only halal meat and does he have four wives? He's not even Muslim so why is he talking about Suffism being a perversion of Islam? Does he believe that Sunni Islam, the largest sect of Islam in Syria is the one and only true version of Islam. Does he believe that Alawite Islam which Assad practices is the only true sect of Islam?
The bottom line is Assad's government is a minority Muslim sect government and Putin may have put too many eggs in the Assad basket. And now Putin has egg on his face and might permanently lose his naval base in Syria and his air base in Syria too. But the jury is still out. But there are reports of Assad and his family fleeing Syria which is not a good sign for Putin. If true, then Putin may have invested billions in Syria with little to no long-term gain for Russia.
Putin's short-term thinking is also seen in his failure to diversify the Russia economy enough as far as diversifying away from oil/gas. Saudi Arabia and the UAE have done this, but Russia has done a poor job of this.
