In the Middle East, people are used to seeing the US president in his last months in office attempt to relaunch the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. This seems to be the case with President Barack Obama who, according to Wall Street Journal, will try to follow the path of his predecessors by trying to revive the peace talk during the final months of his presidency.
The Russian military move in Syria came after a series of meetings and understandings Moscow reached with several parties, including Washington. The lack of decisiveness in the US policy, which prevailed in the foregoing phase, especially since the emergence of Daesh, created a space that needed to be filled; it imposed a policy that would counter the absence of a real vision to confront terrorism and its multiple effects.
Obama changes course and will intensify in the coming months in Syria, Yemen and Iraq the use of drones.
The need to transform the drones by unseen eyes in vehicles direct attack unfolds with the difficulty of exerting serious efforts to combat Islamic terrorism and intelligence with minimal sending men on the ground.
So far the United States has used the vehicle "Predator RQ1" equipped with high-definition cameras and special sensors to collect data and images arming means only in extreme cases with missiles land AGM (Air to Ground) anti-radar.
The Russians have lately had a dynamic and innovative diplomacy, leaning towards finding a political solution to the Syrian crisis. With the regional priorities shifting from political resolution to combating terrorism, the Russians are alone in this pursuit.
Several months ago, the US Secretary of State, John Kerry’s stated aim was achieving a peace deal between Israelis and Palestinians, at the time, seemingly disregarding the need to deal with the situation in Syria.

“There can be no reasoning, no negotiation, with this brand of evil. The only language understood by killers like this is the language of force”[1].

United States president Barak Obama authorised airstrike in Iraq against Islamic State (IS) Sunni jihadist militias. There are no doubts that US intervention could make a difference, but the real question is: by how much?
SAccording to Reuters news agency, at least 35 Al-Qaeda’s militants were killed in two UAV strikes (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) carried out on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 in Yemen[1]. These new strikes are part of the ongoing campaign against international terrorism that the United States are managing in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia. Washington hasn’t commented the fact yet but it is almost impossible to rule US involvement out: these attacks are likely to be the White House response to the AQAP (Al-Qaeda in the Arabic Peninsula) attempt to gather about 100 militants in Yemen as testified by a video broadcasted by the CNN[2].
