Is Syria allowed to defend itself? Israel is bombing them.
Thankfully Putin got Netanyahu to stop.

Putin’s Phone Call With Netanyahu Put End to Israeli Strikes in Syria

I’m SO grateful America, under Trump, has grounded our commitment to the region by declaring Jerusalem as capital. Every world map of Christian Europe had Jerusalem at the center. Western Civilization all civilization is lost without that compass and sense of orientation. It’s truly one of the most meaningful postwar, post-Holocaust, post-20th Century moves America could have made. Our friends in Europe are stubborn about it now, but eventually (as Macron has already indicated) they will come around.
That being said, Netanyahu and other prior leaders have their issues and not made good decisions. Doesn’t change America’s ultimate allegiance to the country’s long term welfare though.
Regarding Vladimir Putin, as I’ve repeated ad nauseum on the board. My time living in Russia shaped my opinions on him and I pray everyday for his demise and for the future of beautiful Putin-free Russia.
He and his ilk deserve no place in any respectable global table of discussion but sadly, due to decades of weak leadership in the West, he and his forces have weaseled themselves into the vacuum like cancer and must be dealt with for the pests that they are.
Only Christ can fumigate the demons away from the post-Soviet space and beyond.
I will end it there.
