I am currently reading a book about the Cold War, and after finishing this article, I wonder if it is really over. The Middle East, specifically Syria, is just another proxy for the U.S., Russia and its strategic allies. It makes more sense now as to why Barack Obama keeps stating, "the Cold War is over." Maybe the U.S. thinks so, but the Russians and certainly Vladimir Putin do not.
