NATO and Russia wanted to limit their military involvement in the Syria-Iraq area with the argument that you cannot escape from the violent complexity once you get involved there.
But now that ISIS has killed a small number of Russians and French, vastly smaller than the number of victims made by the Syrian government, the snake nest argument vanishes like frost in the dessert sun, and Russian and NATO governments preach yet another large-scale and old-fashioned military intervention in Asia.
These governments lose their wisdom because they are better at joining the overexposure of terrorist attacks and primary emotions of the population than keeping an eye at proportions and counting the numbers of victims.
