Putin wants a civil war

Make no mistake, Vladimir Putin wants a civil war in Syria. The same as he has wanted and encouraged the so called Arab Spring uprisings. All of which plays directly into his anti American anti western view of geopolitical issues globally. Putin could care less how many are killed or lost to war, as long as in the end, he and Russia are enriched and come out on top of America.

Putin warns of worsening Syria conflict


Russian President Vladimir Putin warned Friday of an "extremely dangerous" situation in Syria and emerging signs of a civil war but rejected a military intervention as he met with European leaders.
Amid mounting pressure for Moscow to drop its resistance to tougher UN action on Syria, Putin met with German Chancellor Angela Merkel and had arrived in Paris for talks with newly elected French President Francois Hollande.
In Berlin, Putin appeared to strike a more conciliatory tone, warning of the escalating danger from the Syrian conflict and refraining from openly backing President Bashar al-Assad's regime.
"Today we are seeing emerging elements of civil war," Putin said after arriving in Berlin from Belarus. "It is extremely dangerous."
But he also continued to defy calls for tougher UN action to stop the violence, warning at a joint press conference with Merkel: "You cannot do anything by force and expect an immediate effect."
