You don't know what mechanized means? odd... and I mentioned "armor" as well, which often refers to tanks. I'd say tank battalions, but I don't think we have those any longer. It's all combined arms now, more like mechanized infantry battalions etc.
Iya don't think I mentioned Bush and nation building. Funny, but I never voted for the guy, though I did vote for H.
Anyway follow the money. It's probably more accurate to say Russia was doing arms trading showcasing. Just like as Mr. Castle mentioned, they made an arms deal with Iran.
In fact Iran was there, likely receiving battlefield hands-on training on how to use the new weapons they are receiving. This all made possible thanks to dems and reps working together! This is one of the reasons I liked Rand Paul so much, one of the few that stood up against the Iranian nuclear deal, which as a result of it's passage they are now able to be armed to the teeth.
Paul's points: “1) sanctions relief precedes evidence of compliance, 2) Iran is left with significant nuclear capacity, 3) it lifts the ban on selling advanced weapons to Iran.”
And as Mr. Castle mentioned, this will drive the Saudi's to arm as well, and everyone else. But I'm sure still again follow the money and we're already there to take care of that $illy $tuff.
It's undeniable though, our stance is changing to war ready. Not just preparedness, more than that, globally.

Woah cool your jets I didn't put words in your mouth. I was saying that generally people presume that nation-building is how war is waged because America has engaged in nation-building warfare since the 1940's.
Russia is not bound to any vanity or humanitarian agendas and this might be news to people. Their goal was not to build Syria up, rather just flip the bird to Obama and his redline for Assad.
"The Syrian people must decide Assad's fate." - Vladimir Putin
Cements my point even further. Russia "pulling" out has nothing to do with any global war agenda by the USA or USA pressure. Russia fucked Obama in the ass in Syria so to speak by destroying anti-Assad terrorist groups.
Obama wanted to install another terror government into a former peaceful Middle East nation (Egypt, Libya, Tangiers) but Putin said "no thank you sir, not near my country. Go play in your own backyard and create terrorist group governments there, were going to tip the balance back to neutral and give Assad a fair shake" so to speak.
Most posters on these forums are fed cow-shit sponsored and funded by the NDAA bill. That much is obvious. Assad is a moderate.
