Thank God for Trump. O'Fakename continues to provoke Russia when anyone but a fool would understand that strengthening ties with Putin's government is the best approach to confronting Chinese aggression.....What a dunce!

Lesson #1: Victors of wars write the history books.

Obama’s side lost.

I've never understood the Syria thing. The same people who harshly criticized Bush for trying to displace a brutal but mostly secular dictator (Saddam), then went about de-stabilizing another mostly secular Middle-Eastern strongman (Assad), siding with people very similar to those who made the Iraq War such a long, drawn-out ordeal: Islamic extremists.

I don't get it, unless they just wanted chaos for the sake of chaos, or wanted to support Islamic extremism.

Yeah and we were on the side of murderous ISIS, thanks to the radical leftists who sold out to the Saudis (Obama, Hillary).

Trump is on the way, and hopefully a more reasonable and constructive relationship with Russia. Hillary and Obama and their ilk were big supporters of the Soviet Union...now that they aren’t communists these asses think they are the devil. Leftists love only other radical leftists...everyone else is their enemy. I wish we could rid ourselves forever of these demonic Democrats.

The media are in a frenzy, because probably the got their talking points from the left, which we know from wikileaks is what they do. The left are against Russia, because obama losing in the proxy war, plus Putin stopped the homosexual propaganda.

Well, that’s it in a nutshell.

An anti-china card being played by Trump. But we’re in a much weaker position now.

At least, we don’t have to hear the pro-Russian clowns say Russia was fighting ISIS because they haven’t, probably Assad’s ally.

The Clinton/Obama crime families with the allies in the old media are spoiling for war with Russia to further empower the Muslim brotherhood.

Obama had two options by which the Syrian crisis could have come out differently.

One option would have been to have NEVER allowed any Middle East state or the so-called “Syrian opposition” to think that the U.S. would place itself in any supporting role on a regime change agenda in Syria. Why? The security situation vis-a-vis Syria was stable and manageable, and any attempt to unseat Assad with western assistance was SURE to result in Syria becoming a more problematic security issue with massive Russian and Iranian assistance surely given to Assad (and increasing Russian and Iranian presence in the area to boot).

Option two would have bit the bullet on how Assad would respond to western support for the “Syrian opposition”, and nip his efforts to get Russian & Iranian assistance in the bud by going immediately all in with every available U.S. means taken against Assad.

He took neither and instead punted all the way down a never ending and ineffective middle road. He insured one thing - a much prolonged conflict with a much increased loss of civilian lives and Syrian infrastructure.
