So let's see what this means:
* Sorry Barry...As I told the Bar many moons ago...you aint no Chess Master. You've been check-mated by Putin
* The US/UK/German/French/Canada etc etc will NOT succeed in overthrowing Assad... That alliance has been completely outfoxed, foiled & embarrassed by the Russian/Iranian/Syrian axis
* The terrorists and their allies i.e. US trained, armed and paid "rebels" ...will NOT take over Syria. The oil/gas pipelines the Saudis & Gulf states wish to build thru Syria to supply Europe will NOT be built
* Putin/Russia finally stood up and said NYET!...to the West...NO MAS!! ...Using the Russian military to block the West's craven policy in Syria...THAT'S HUGE!!!!
* Geopolitically, this absolutely stunning development (the West is dazed & confused) signals the acceleration of a CHANGING GLOBAL ORDER. The US/West Alliance is no longer lord & master of the planet.... Those Babylon jobs will now be shared among more countries..including Russia & China
* Under ordinary circumstances these TECTONIC SHIFTS in the global power order could easily result in war between the big powers... BUT...These aint no ordinary times. Killary will NOT be president. A nativist clown named Trump seemingly uninterested in global war will...
We MAY have dodged a major war...by a whisker

Bodies lie lifeless in the streets of Aleppo’s old city. Rescue workers are unable to pull out the dead fast enough under the unrelenting shelling and bombing by pro-Assad forces on the march.
Two weeks into their renewed offensive on eastern Aleppo, Syria, forces backing President Bashar al-Assad have captured close to 75 percent of the territory controlled by opposition armed factions, including the old city. The fall of eastern Aleppo would grant Assad a strategic victory, returning all urban centers in the country to his control.
Suffering successive defeats, the rebels today proposed a five-day ceasefire in what many see as their Hail Mary, while a defiant Assad said the United States was “begging for a truce” seeing the dire straits the opposition factions were now in.
