That is exactly why Russia is in Syria. They are strengthening the Shia rule in the area along with Iran (Shia), to keep the area and its oil on the Russian/Iranian side and not Sunni with the Saudi's.
Its all a big economic / religious powder keg waiting to go off, as it always has been for hundreds of years. This time though, if it does go off, the result is $80 oil! Go Putin!
