You didn't bother to read it, did you? Not a lot has changed... The Islamic State's Growth Has Limits What I find hilarious is that the wingers are wetting their pants over ISIS, and yet, its Russia that sits on a pile of nukes with a leader who has made clear his expansionist view for both his country and his leadership, and who has pretty much dismantled what free press and democracy that existed, violently put down..........and I mean ISIS violently..............a rebellion in Chechnya, beat up Georgia, mixed it up with Syria and Iran and now is screwing around with the Ukraine. Russia is a huge country with a massive amt of nat. resources..........it potentially is a major adversary. By comparison, ISIS is this ragtag bunch of terrorists who are very dependent on donations and who were kicked out of Aleppo and managed to subdue northern Syria and northwestern Iraq..........a series of small villages and mostly desert. The two prizes they had.........a dam and an oilfield..........they've lost. And yet, its ISIS they fear........what am I missing?
