Amid conflicting reports about Moscow targeting U.S.-alllied groups in Syria, GOP presidential candidate Carly Fiorina said late Wednesday that she backs military readiness against Russian forces.
“I believe we must tell the Russians that we will conduct [and] we will secure a no-fly zone around anti-Assad rebel forces that we’re supporting,” she said on Fox News’s "Hannity."
“Does that mean we might use force against Russian jets?” host Sean Hannity then asked. “Well, hopefully not,” Fiorina responded. "Hopefully, if we are signaling clearly to the Russians are intention, it will not come to that.”
“But if it does come to that, I think we must be prepared,” the former Hewlett-Packard CEO added.

....”Good rundown of the mess. Thanks for the information.”....
Yep....lets just hope the US steps back a bit and let Russia and those on the ground get rid of these terrorists.....most of the Syrians have vacated the country, which will mean less damage to the population. Unfortunately there are deaths in war....it’s a nasty business all around.
We KNOW how that turned out.
....”Fiorina wants us to attack Russia?”....
She’s carrying McCains water on that note....remember she was McCains chief adviser when he ran.
Total psychopath ... She needs to be hauled off in a straight jacket, and placed into a padded cell.
I’m with you on her. She’s a splitter. And she’s telegraphing her defensive policy.
Bad move.
It seems Carley and now Hillary want to show how tough a Commander in Chief they'd be. Lets roll the dice over Syria. Throw in the pot. As if that was in our best interest or even a rational thing to do. Maybe these lunatics can start WWIII before the election.
Remember your scripture - Damascus will be destroyed, that not one stone lay atop another.
No, but she was “wedded” in a way to nutjob McCain ... Recall “Bomb bomb bomb - bomb bomb Iran”
Based on what the two are actually saying, I would recommend you get that TDS checked out.
For 5, let me repeat 5 Syrian Rebels that are supposedly on our side?
Has everyone lost their damn mind? You know what? We had our “chance” in Iraq, and Obama insisted we get out of there. It’s time to pack up our stuff, and finish getting out.
This is what balless, sociopathic democrats and war mongering mental case Republicans will get you.
There are no pro-US rebels in Syria. None. And there are precious few ‘US trained” forces in Syria. If we recall, they Pentagon admitted to that being less than 9 people a few weeks ago.
And no one has explained what “CIA trained forces” even means. Are thay Forces that were trained by clandestine CIA operatives while the natives being trained all thought they were being trained by fellow islamo-fascists?
ROTFLOL!
The neocon wsj nro faux news is strong in this stern form of estrogenics
You really should try to back up your assertion with a reason why you think that is so.
expanded form.
Nice crop of mushrooms.
>>He seems to have a strategy. What’s ours?
Being “flexible”.
We have been defending the Saudis without recompense for far too long. Pooty is in town. I say let the Saudis take it right on the chin. May the hordes of Shia make the Saudis shiver like dogs thitten razor blades! They have meddled in US politics for FAR too long.
Fiorina is just as batty as Obama. The USA has no dog in the race between Sunna and Shia. Its time we stayed out of the religious war, and simply made Israel exceedingly strong militarily.
Insane. And worse to threaten it when you can’t or won’t do it anyway. Only inflames doesn’t help anything or anyone. We will not vote for florina.
