I'm no expert in international politics, but am pondering on these questions.
If someone more well informed than me has better insights, please answer me or
help me understand.
(No spam please, and please don't hijack this to discuss Islam).
1. Why ISIS had't attacked like its doing now, for past 5 years USA had been bombing them, but starts these attacks within 3 weeks Russia started bombings?
2. Given USA (and west) claims that Russia is *not* attacking ISIS but "moderate" rebels, does that even makes sense? I mean according to USA Russia is helping ISIS cleaning up moderate rebels? Why would ISIS attack someone who's helping them (re: the Russian airplane bomb recently)?
3. Differentiate "moderate" rebels and "terrorists"? Is supplying arms to anyone in middle-east at present a good idea?
4. Is it just by chance that these terrorist attacks are happening just before G20 summit?
5. Where do these terrorists get the arms and ammunition from? Would that be the first thing to cut if anyone seriously wants to beat these fanatics? There must be a constant supply of this and i find it hard to believe that they are manufacturing it.
PS: This is my first post so please forgive me for mistakes and feel free to correct me.
