You may want to secure an adult beverage because this is going to get engrossing.  An intriguing connection between Vladimir Putin and Indiana Jones arose this week.

We first go to Palmyra – the 3,000 year-old World Heritage Site in eastern Syria seized by ISIS a year ago, which the deranged jihadists proceeded to destroy because it was heathen.

It was recaptured this week by Bashar al-Assad’s government forces enabled by Russian fighters bombing the blazes out of entrenched ISIS crazies.  The London Daily Mail has a terrific photo essay on what Palmyra looks like now – fortunately more intact than expected.

Now that he’s consolidated Assad’s rule, what’s Putin’s next target?  Something called The Azaz Corridor.
