  1. +Dimitry 56 That's sheer hypocrisy coming from you. Russia props up Assad, who buys oil from ISIS and provides electricity and mobile phone service to ISIS in return. So indirectly, Russia is supporting ISIS.

  2. Dimitry 56 I'm afraid you're the ignoramus here. Google "Assad buys oil from ISIS". You'll be astounded.

  3. Dimitry 56 You're the one appearing stupid here. Assad's business dealings with ISIS are confirmed by independent sources. If it soothes your hurting pride, know that FSA and al-Nusra also buy oil from ISIS, but through independent intermediaries.

  4. Dimitry 56 Something wrong with your reading comp? I told you, google it and judge for yourself. Use news.google.com if Facebook and Twitter hits scare you. The third and fourth sentences in your post appear like some botched transliteration from Russian.

  5. +Phil Dobson You should be making a big stink about Assad verifiably buying ISIS oil. In doing so, Assad has been financing ISIS. To make it even worse, he's been supplying electricity and cell phone service to ISIS in payment.

  6. Phil Dobson Assad's regime has no legitimacy, so they're not buying anything back -- they're just providing ISIS with funds and means to wage war against civilisation.

  7. +SteveFusionX How is that going to work? Setting up machine gun nests at the borders and moving the refugees down?
