John's predictions are prophecy. Assad will not get ANY religion or have any "God moments".
Israel is protecting itself. The rest have other and changing agendas. Fluid situation that could well become Beghazi II on a larger scale.
I do wish you would fnerkin' well EXPLAIN what the hell you're talking about!

What do you mean (imply) by how Bamby's Cash Gift to Iran will be used being "the question"!?
ISIS as a physical quasi-state IS defeated! That it's gone into "asymmetrical guerrilla mode" is, and was, expected. Of course ISIS is everywhere! D'uh!
I do agree with you that John is right, in the "big picture".
The (predicted) "fact" that Israel, Russia, and Iran will be, even reluctantly, on "the same side" MEANS (by definition) that there will be SOME reason they, at least temporarily, SETTLE THEIR "INTEROPERATIONAL" DIFFERENCES.
So, "THE QUESTION" is ACTUALLY: Where shall we look for clues (voluntary "movements") as to WHEN these parties will begin moving toward an "accommodation" with each other?
In my opinion,..
1) Russia and Israel will "take out" Syria's ruler and administer the "country" (more like "fuzzy territory") in some joint manner. Much like Qaddafi was "taken out" by the "alliance" that did so, except the "New Syrian" alliance will administer it better.
1a) The Kurds will be used as a "threat" against the Turks, and will be given LARGE sections of Syria.
2) Iran's "old" rulers will be overthrown and the new regime will sue for peace with the US/Israeli/Russian "alliance".
The Israelis will "bring together" Russia and the US.
The US will "bring together" Israel and Iran.
Iran will "bring together" Russia and "The West" ("Europe" and her ex-non-African colonies).
WEIRD ONE: Russia and the US will "secularize" Saudi Arabia, and "bring together" Saudi Arabia and "The West".
..Saudi will shatter, with its "anti-West" contingent fleeing into "Sunniland" (likely Africa) and its "Wanna-be Westerners" contingent bolstered and supported by Russia and the US.
So,.. what "strangeness" to look for:
1) Pro-Russia movements by Israel.
2) Russia getting REALLY cozy with Syria's ruler. (Principle: Keep your enemy CLOSER!)
3) Turkey getting extremely anxious and borderline psychopathic.
4) Weird frailties within the Iranian Social Elite.
5) Building social pressure to "cool it" by the Saudi "leadership" on its anti-Western population. (Cleric "crackdown")
Just some thoughts. How do YOU guys see these (and other) characters "unconsciously" signalling their movement toward what we KNOW has to happen?
