What really interested me in this latest article was we are cooperating with the ruskies! The nation who supports Syria, invaded Georgia, was the reason NATO was organized, is supporting France in a military event. I think the only reason we are reluctantly supporting France at all is due to our NATO membership.
Like I said, done nearly zero research on this topic, so we might not belong there at all, but I just thought it was interesting the Russians are partcipatating in a military event to the same degree we are (providing an air transport service).

Homocidal maniacs can bring together strange bedfellows.
Since no one important can control them, they don't have the usual mischief-making, geopolitical-minded friends.
