Has ISIS Brought President Obama and Putin Together?

If so, they've truly done the unthinkable-as these two guys have not been buddies.

"Obama and Putin have come together to wipe out much of the ISIS home base in Syria."

"It turns out the impromptu meeting in a hotel bar over the weekend between U.S. President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin was every bit as productive as it initially appeared to be. The two nations are now finally on the same page militarily when it comes to wiping out ISIS in Syria, and in the past few days much of the ISIS self-labeled “capital” in Raqqa has been laid bare. For the first time, the world’s two superpowers appear to be coordinating their efforts."

"In that sense ISIS may have bit off more than it bargained for this month, in that it has perhaps unwittingly aligned the major forces of the world against it. The often icy relationship between Presidents Obama and Putin appears to have suddenly thawed a bit – and that iciness was the only thing ISIS still had going for it in Syria."

Of course, the sticking point remains Assad. Can the US and Russia come up with some compromise between the US who wants him out and Russia who has been protecting him until now?

It is true that ISIS is making itself lots of enemies.

Even Anonymous-the hackers-have come out and vowed to destroy ISIS.

I'd rather have them on our side than against us. LOL. No doubt Cyberwar is an important dimension of the fight.

Tom Brown linked to a piece that shows China is vowing to fight ISIS. Though they probably won't join the fight-they prefer to 'not interfere' in other nation's affairs.

Tom asks:

"So they're pissing off Europe, Russia, the US, China, Iran, Hezbollah, Lebanon, Turkey, Egypt, "Kurdistan," Iraq, Jordan, Japan even Al Queda.. and "Anonymous"... WTF? They really are a "death cult" then? How do they see the end game of all this?"

Well, remember, they believe they go straight to Paradise with 100 virgin love slaves when they die. Beyond this, they see this as a Holy War of Muslims against the infidels. You have to think of like an inner city where there is violence and crime everywhere. They are like the gang that tries to take over the neighborhood and promise that they alone will keep you safe if you join them.
