@tombombadil8709 Russia can keep on pounding NATO/Ukraine forces at much greater cost to them than to Russia. Russia doesn't have to conquer all of Ukraine. It just has to destroy the war-fighting capability of Ukraine to remove it as a threat.
This has many of the hallmarks of the Kursk incursion. Great success, at first, only to find yourself worse off than when you started, because of the resources that were wasted. USA has been building up the rebels for quite some time, so they have an early advantage, but is the wherewithal there to really hold Syria? We'll see.
I think American logistics aren't up to the task. I don't think American will to fight another war in the Middle East is there. Even if it's there, the military is soy, and totally beholden to the military industrial complex, which wants to see expensive weaponry that only works if you have total air superiority, which nobody has in a battle between major powers.
What I'm not sure of is how much Turkey has to put into the effort or how serious Turkey is about trying to hold on to Syria. That will make a huge difference, one way or the other.
