Syria/Assad/Refugees

Europe is awash with refugees from Syria and Libya due to the ongoing instability in the regions. Apparently, Russia offered to have Assad step down in 2012 but the West was greedy (wanted their own dictator installed most likely) and passed. Now Russia is stepping up it's presence in the region to combat Isil. If they succeed in stemming the flow of refugees by stabilizing the region it should improve their relationship with Europe. The world view of the US continues to spiral downward due to poor stewardship. Obama/Kerry seem to be doing well. Obama/Clinton was a dismal failure much like his predecessor, the main difference being Bush was willingly ignorant while Obama blundered.
