We should be cooperating with Russia in Syria to kill ISIS
That is who will take over. It may not be CALLED that right now, but if ‘the rebels’ win, they will be immediately overrun by ISIS- and who will fight them?
I agree.
Syria is a mess. There are no good guys present there - or at least none I’ve been able to clearly identify.
Let both sides fight it out as long as they want to. If they’re killing each other off and the Russians are blowing millions of dollars trying to prop us Assad, that’s fine with me.
Well, the DNC couldn’t create a no fly zone over H->! last night. /rimshot....
Personally, I am praying for the commanders in the field and the pilots to keep a confrontation from directly happening at least until we (hopefully) get a real President and not some Muslim son of a b!tch occupying the White House.
Hillary and the globalists are against Russia because it is an independent nation in Europe, insisting on its own borders, its own language, its own culture, its own politics. Its probably the only aggressively Christian nation left in Europe. It will frustrate the plans of the new world order. Therefore, it is hated.
EXACTLY!
It's far too late for a "No Fly Zone", once the russians became involved. I thought Trump missed a chance to nail the bitch with this very real possibility of US - russian conflict when she brought that up.
This is all just because Pooty Poot is kicking the !@#$# out of ISIS and Obama wants ISIS to succeed. Once Trump gets in there we’ll both be on the same side. Putin is no friend of Islam.
That’s not important. Everyone’s sexual proclivity, however, is important.
Why does the media keep asking the candidates about Allepo.
Oh dear, all these civilians are going to get killed, what are you going to do about Allepo?
Psst...why not ask Barry, if the situation is so urgent.
As Ann Coulter said...let Allah sort it out.
Especially when the Soros-supported Obama administration did so much to help Russia on missile defense and nukes, including the especially dangerous Obama-Putin Iran nuke deal, which Putin loves and claims to have played a major role in. That while the treasonous SON practically dismantled the US military. And he did all this ON PURPOSE, not out of "naivete", "inexperience", or "incompetence". What I think is going on is that he (Obama) is trying to set the US up for defeat, given all he's done to help build them and hurt us.
” enforcing a no-fly zone over Syria? We could do that, but it would mean aerial combat taking place between US and Russian aircraft.”
I’m no military expert, but I consider this effort a towering mistake bearing no possible gain and fraught with terrible risks.
First, undoubtedly the Russians have installed their S-300 and perhaps S-400 anti-aircraft systems, or they would, in very short order. I am not especially advocating fearing these systems but they are not toys.
The argument could be made that we should sacrifice a few planes and men to probe the effectiveness of the S-300/S-400. I find that ghoulish but perhaps smarter people than I would consider that a valuable enterprise.
I do NOT think the US could enforce any sort of no-fly zone there. Repeat: Do NOT. It would be seen as a fruitless effort and we need no more encouragement for our enemies to adventure farther.
Russia has very serious interest in Syria, whether we understand the depth of it or not. We have little or no interest there and the US public is blitheringly tired of endless Mideast wars. I say, there isn’t squat we can do about Russian activities in the ME short of starting a hot war with Russia which is 500 millions times LESS worth it than the ME already is.
Yeah, I heard that, too. I’m pretty sure Putin wouldn’t take too kindly to any of his aircraft being shot down by us.
Now, if we just happened to loan some SAMs to the locals...
No one get me wrong. I don’t love or worship Russia. Putin is not a good guy, but for or better or for worse, he is the leader of Russia and we have no choice but to deal with him.
At the end of the day, US foreign policy must serve the interests of the American people. A real, no-s###, shooting war with Russia does not serve the interests of the American people. Especially over a place like Syria. Letting the Russians have a warm water port there is less threatening than an actual war with Russia.
Yea - Who are we to get in the middle of Syria Govt with Russia ally civil war with Rebels who are loosely tied to Terrorists.
Sounds like a shooting war with Russia in THEIR Ball Park.
Why in the H E double tooth picks would you do that?
Bring out the 1964 Goldwater A-Bomb TV ad, only dub in her making this idiotic policy stance.
In the debate Trump should have mentioned that Hillarys comments toward Putin along with BOzo’s comments are going to get us into a war, possibly nuclear with Russia.
Yeah, I’m surprised Trump didn’t jump on that one. Shoot down just one Russian plane in a Syrian no fly zone and Russia will take out every site involved and similarly situated. Would have been another great line well timed: “no fly zone in Syria? You were actually SoS, and don’t realize that would literally start World War Three which would likely go nuclear?”
She made me very uncomfortable with how she was talking about Russia. She seems eager to provoke a war with them, which is in no way in the country’s best interest.
We haven’t had crap to do with Syria for over 20 years. Why are we so worried about it now? I also agree that we should coordinate WITH Russia on defeating ISIS.
Risking a war with Russia over Syria is ridiculous and foolhardy.
