Not a bad idea to wear out the Russians and prevent them from being redeployed to Ukraine. Also possible deal involving anti-Assad elements to back Ukraine in return

It’s also a nice way to make connections with nearby countries that are also involved-

It’s horrifying but I wouldn’t be surprised if many of the forces there are starting to treat a DECADE LONG CIVIL WAR as a sort of networking event.
