I guess that the main thing that we could hope for in Syria is a lessening of Iranian influence. A replacement for Assad would be nice, but less likely.

I agree. Assad is now toothless and very broke.
Even if he survives he will not be capable of mischief for a long time.

True, Iran is the kingpin and the Obama administration empowered and emboldened Iran. Russia could not go it alone with Iran and soon Iran will have the bomb that Obama so vehemently tried to arm them with. Israel, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and other Sunni nations will have to unite and attack Iran before she goes “hot”. Fortunately, unlike Obama, he will not threaten to shoot down Israeli fighters on their way to hit Iran...

Bashar al-Assads use of chemical weapons was branded unacceptable But, but, wait. The media assured us that GWB made up all that stuff about chemical weapons in the Middle-East.

Assad is better than anyone the US has been helping.

5. Get the nukes out of Incirlik. Heck, completely decamp U.S. Forces from Turkey. They are not allies.

That’s right; Assad, Qaddafi, even Saddam were bastions of stability in an area with very few. I guess our overlords wanted Muslims killing other Muslims, which is the most direct outcome of our involvement there...

From “unthinkable” to “if.” It is a progress of sorts for those in denial. It is the best we can expect from them.

U.S. red line means nothing these days. Actually it goes back before Obama, even though he definitely made it much worse. All weapons and professionally trained troops won't do much if enemies are convinced that U.S. won't use them.
What Trump needs to do is to convince enemies that the red line counts.

It could explode if Turkey moves in (funded by Saudi Arabia and Gulf States)-— It could blast into a reginal war with us in the middle of a Mess. Lets hope Trump is up to the challenge
