I totally support Assad!! He is the elected leader of the sovereign nation of Syria!! He has never done a damned thing to us!! NEVER!!! He did not”gas his own people”. That was a fabricated lie!! They now have proof that it was the McCain backed Isis elements in Syria that gassed the folks in northern Syria. Let’s actually respect national sovereignty of others are we may all be speaking Chinese under the doctrine of unprovoked preemption!!. Who the hell is advising Trump on this?I strongly recommend a legal opinion!!
If Assad has the brain Saddam didn’t have we can work with him. Kurds are in Turkey but they’re also in Syria. Give them a homeland. We would be better friends than the Russians. Let’s not forget Iran with their own Kurdis problem.
I have no personal opinion about Assad, in part because there is no verifiable information about what is happening there. Regardless, Syria is a sovereign country and who they have as a leader is none of anyone else’s business. They have a sovereign right to align with whoever they wish (eg. Russia). The ME color revolutions have been an unmitigated disaster for those countries and for us. Our intention now would appear to be to reverse the progress Syria/Russia has made against the jihadis?? This will possibly be confirmed if we take territory from ISIS (whoever they really are) and hand it over to “Syrian rebels” (whoever they are)
