Can Putin help solve the Syrian Crisis?

The key Syrian-related events in the last 60 days:

September 30, 2015 - Russian planes start bombing targets in Syria

October 31, 2015 - Terrorist Bomb downs Russian flight to St. Petersburg

November 13, 2015 - Terrorist Wolf Packs attack Paris

November 22, 2015 - Turkish F-16 downs Russian SU-24 which strayed into Turkish airspace

Before Putin directly involved himself in the Syrian Conflict last September, talk was circulating that the fall of the Assad Regime is imminent.

That would have slowed the flow of Syrian refugees into Europe... and enabled the West to redirect the Free Syrian Forces to fight ISIS.

Now, there appears to be no end in sight for Syria... the Refugees... and the ISIS Terrorists...

Can Putin help in cleaning-up this mess?

Of course, all he has to do is go back home to Russia...
