Obama is overjoyed that Putin has bailed him out of a bad situation.   This could turn out to be his way to "save face" and not to bomb Syria.  And, it is also another of Russia's opportunities to continue to rise to the forefront of world power and dominion.  Now, this leaves us with the question concerning Israel.  How will she deal with her next-door enemy who has WMD and willing to use them on her?  I think I have a clue----Isaiah 17:1.  Funny, but when that was written thousands of years ago, the most potent weapon known to man was the sword.  Food for thought.
