Kurdish Commander thanks President Trump for ceasefire

So I'm 'spinning' because I dared to say that Russia went from being "a minor player to The Major Player in the region?" (I have taken the liberty of adding the bold, italic, and underline to highlight the clever attempt at deception the eagle-eyed 85 uncovered.)

Curses, foiled again!!! You EXPOSED my 'giant lie.'

Does my falsehood get corrected if I say, "Russia went from one of the Middle East players to The Major Player in the region"?
Russia has been a major player in the region for almost this entire decade. A minor player doesn't have fighter jets stationed there that we have to discuss whether or not we should shoot them down.

I have already given my Mea cupa for using the word 'minor.'

Regardless of the relative size of Russia's influence prior to Trump's spontaneous decision a couple Sundays ago, does it change the fact that Russia is now the one calling all the shots in the region?

don’t worry, Shookster has already made it clear that he doesn’t give a shit that the Brits and French removes their troops to not act as human shields even though they both allied and fought with the Kurds as well

That’s not really how NATO works right now. Remember, you’ve got Germany as the major EU player out there condemning the US and courting every ME group out there.
