Bill Kristol thinks we should deploy ground troops to Syria to fight ISIS and topple Assad.

Oh what could possibly go wrong with Russian troops already deployed and fighting there. Besides Russia was invited by Assad of Syria to protect him?

I guess Billy wants to get in a nuclear war with Russia? He must have a bunker he can run into?

We are going to go back to Iraq to gain the ground Obama handed over to ISIS.

We should create a Safe Zone inside Syria with Russia’s help. Leave Assad in power. Repatriate all the Muslims in Western Europe and in the U.S.

For the record too. If we were deploying ground troops there. We would need more than that.

I have heard the actual number of troops would be from anywhere between as low as 150k up to a max of 450k U.S. troops. That would be for the foreseeable future too. Well that is if we did not get into a nuclear conflict with Russia.

1. He was one of the people urging us to go into Iraq in 2003. At that time he predicted the war would last only 2 months.

2. It is one of the goals of ISIS to entice the western countries into a final battle near Dabiq, Syria. For some reason they feel ready for this right now, but should we just play into their scenario?

50,000 troops on the ground in a country fighting a civil war, where we are against the government but would not be fighting the government? That is not something I would have thought of.

The problem is the US STILL wants to topple Assad! We have WW3 going on, we have the results of regime change all over the ME and in Ukraine and Afghanistan, and the elitist globalist puppetmasters are still playing their selfish political gains.

Mr. Kristol would have his 50,000 troops if they weren't being used as Saudi/global agenda Storm Troopers!

If Kristol wants boots on the ground in Syria, he’d best get going on his boot sizing and equipment requisitions. I am not prepared to sacrifice more American lives on some handcuffing expedition to a muslim s**thole. Isn’t this what we have tactical nukes for??

Great...pushing another war In a foreign nation when the battle needs to take place in the borders of the Western nations.

Another nob-gobbler who doesn’t get it.

So now the feckless mealy mouthed Kristol wants to be manly. Did he check with McCain or Yeb before expressing “his” opinion?

Bill Kristol is an idiot

Recipe for winning the War on Terror.

Allow no "no go" zones in any Western Country, out law Burquas and female circumcision. Any mosque preaching hate is razed, all non citizen Muslims get repatriated any citizen Muslims taking up arms against any Western state is stripped of citizenship and declared an enemy combatant.

If you wish to wage a serious war on fundamental (radical) Islam when you have to attack it at it's source, Saudi Arabia and the other gulf oligarchies. Any nation that lives under Sharia law is an enemy state and must be defeated. Conquered stated are occupied until they have been domesticated, educated, civilized, and capable of functioning as a constitutional republic. All resources of an occupied state belong to the occupiers. Forcibly resisting occupation is a capital offense, military tribunals adjudicate criminal offenses, executions are held in public.

I think that about covers it, of course the education program should encourage the conquered peoples to adopt a religion that does not command its' followers to kill non believers. And as in the Western nations no Burquas, etc in occupied states.

Obama WANTS ISIS ATTACKS here so the government can step in and “protect us” from them by declaring martial law, taking our guns, and further eroding our Constitutional rights. He is in the middle of creating another crisis by which he may gain further advantage. Obama and the Rats are far more dangerous to us than ISIS.
