Syrian Escalation ?

It seems that the plot is thickening in Syria, which could spread easily into Turkey as well.  The White House is confirming today that Syria's Assad government has used Sarin Gas to poison to death approximately 100 to 150 people, in their battles with the rebel forces.  There has been no speculation as to how many of these deaths can be called against enemy combatants, versus "collateral damage" fatalities of non-combatants living in the areas of dispute. 

President Obama has gone on record previously to say that any use of Sarin, or any other form of chemical weapons in the fighting (of which the Syrian government forces are known to have large stockpiles) would be considered a significant escalation on their part, and would cause the U.S. to reconsider our position of not offering the rebel forces more advanced, and powerful military aid, in retaliation.  In other words, "your escalation will force our escalation, so what are you going to do about that?"  DUH!!!

It occurs to me that this could be exactly what Russia wants to have happen.  One of the options the White House has said would be considered would be the establishment of a "No-Fly Zone" over the areas controlled by the rebels (which Putin has vowed that he "will not allow this to happen").  This could be accomplished by pressuring any NATO ally to send planes into the area to take out the Syrian jets that try to attack, relieving America of the appearance of  direct intervention.  Now, if only we could think of a NATO ally that might be pressured into doing so.  Hmmmm..., a NATO ally, with muslim sympathies close to Syria,... Hmmmm, who could that be?  Wait!  I think I've got it!  How about Turkey!!!  That's perfect; I don't know why I didn't think of that before!

Of course, Russia has already escalated in anticipation of our escalation by sending Syria some advanced Surface To Air ("SAM") missiles capable of shooting down sophisticated jet fighters.  It seems like they were setting us up to draw us into the conflict, the only thing necessary was to pressure Assad into using the Sarin gas, knowing that Obama was already committed to respond  by escalating, which they could use as an excuse to escalate some more.  The  Russians are famous chess players, and tend to view warfare in a tit-for-tat form of strategy.  Therefore it serves their purposes to draw America slowly into the war at a time when we are sick of the wars in Iraq and Afganistan.  First we pressure Turkey into being our proxy in Syria, while sending more and more costly weapons to the rebel forces.  If  Russia can defeat, or even stalemate our efforts long enough, they know the American people will grow tired of paying for the war effort and will force the administration to abandon it, and pull out.  Then a negotiated peace movement could draw the rebel forces into a tenuous alliance, and perhaps a Russian sponsored destabilization effort against Turkey could bring about a Shiite, or Al-Quaida dominated regime, and a subsequent alliance with Syria, Russia and all the other Gog/Magog allies to try and invade Israel.  Russia's armed forces could be slowly built up in Syria over years of conflict, so that all they would need to do would be to turn around and point their weapons south, toward Israel, and the "invasion" would already be on "the Mountains of Israel", as God said they would in Ezekiel 38:8 (remember that Syria was conquered by King David 3000 years ago, so their mountains could be what God is referring to here) where God has prophesied to bring them so He can destroy 83% of their armies.  Their wouldn't need to be any massive armed invasion travelling south through Iran and  Iraq, they could be flown in, a little at a time. 

Amazing to see just how clever the Russians can be at setting this all up!  If all this happens the way I'm suggesting that it might, this would have to be the most complex effort of any armed invasion force in history, to effectively commit suicide by thumbing their noses at God Almighty!!!
