They are drawing a line in the sand with Syria.

They know that if Syria falls, then Iran is next.

And after Iran, there is nothing to stop a march north towards Russia except the -stan countries. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkmenistan

And Uncle Sam already has military bases in the -stan countries. http://www.cfr.org/kyrgyzstan/asia-us-military-bases-central-asia/p8440

New World Order, anyone?

This attempt to break the Shia Crescent is not going at all well for the Empire, and probably forcasts the eventual outcome of the IranWar as well: a devastating defeat for both Israel and America.
