How correct was Russia to oppose the seven nations in favor of arming rebels in Syria?

Russia has it's own policies and priorities, as of late some are very worrisome. They are worrisome for the people of Russia and it's radical change in citizenship. Requiring ID to claim their right to be Russia. An official Russian language.

The radical change in economic strategies and cutting itself off almost longingly so, for an isolationist country. I don't see any global alliance as anything but a change in economic strategy. The Eurasian Union with it's closed markets is more or less a military alliance, perhaps, to compete with NATO.

But, in this instance in Syria, Russia was correct. It is elemental. When more munitions enter a region there will be more death. Even domestically the USA has come to realize the guns on the street lead to more citizen deaths and suicides. It is basic physics. More killing machines and guns the more death that occurs.

With the Syrian civil war now three years on and Russia having left Syria for other places such as the Black Sea; is the world seeing a white flag in surrendering to any war posture?

Russia was all to silent during Bush's Iraq War. The permissiveness of which Rumsfeld military crossed into Iraq without any opposition except that of a UN resigned to the insistence by Bush's White House there were reasons beyond that of al Qaeda's Afghanistan to go to war.

Has the political ideology of the right wing in the USA actually been defeated and it's lingering only the negligence of people to realize it.
