Can Russia Be Recruited in the Fight Against Iran?

(Israel Hayom) Ariel Bolstein - Russia is searching for a future strategy that will allow it to integrate into the world of U.S. President Donald Trump. Russia did not have much in common with the country of Islamic revolution from the outset, and the collaboration between them stems more from their desire to challenge the existing world order. Indications of Russia's openness to the idea of turning its back on Iran have been noted on Russian state television. These channels are full of talk shows that focus on current events, and the variety of voices heard on them is effectively controlled by the authorities. In recent weeks, these programs have raised the possibility of placing Iran on the sacrificial altar between Moscow and Washington, and this was received with understanding by a majority of participants. Putin and, as a result, the Russian public are determined to witness Russia's inclusion in the select club of world powers, but they have no interest in dragging others who also claim the crown along with them, and certainly not Iran. Russia needs to understand that Hizbullah's murderousness is no different from that of the Sunni terrorists it so mercilessly bombed. There should be one law for the Islamic State, Jabhat Fateh al-Sham (formerly Nusra Front) and Hizbullah. If Russia operates according to this principle, its standing and the security of the region will vastly improve.
