Yes, he is fighting the foreign Jhihadis NOW after three years of unrest with his squashing Syrians who opposed his regime.
Ok, I don’t like the Jhihadis either, and am not sure Assad would be better, but he allies himself with Iran (home of those jhidasts that killed our men in Iraq and Israel.
I agree with you. He is a despot, but I do not believe we need to get involved. Arming terrorists is not a good thing in my book.
So be it...so who do we want to win this? The bad guy or the real bad guys? We should not get involved in this at all..this interview proves it. But let Obozo do things like give the rebels arms, send CIA to help and conduct a Small, little bombing assault?
Pretty obvious who Dear Leader backs...and he is us, like it or not.
I just see no US strategic national security interests in being involved with Syria’s civil war and see many national security problems with arming AQ and Islamists. Assad has had those chemical weapons for decades and never has given them to terrorists to use against us or anyone else. If AQ and Islamists take over that country...all bets are off. They will have those weapons and all of the conventional weapons of a state! No thanks,
You think Assad is worse for us than the rebels?
Folks here are too young to recall when his daddy fostered Christian terrorists
Middle east defines nuance and murkiness
I say why interfere when your foes are fighting
Napoleon?
BTW....every time we help muzzies kill Christians..... the ingrates turn on us in time
Bosnia....Egypt.....Kosovo...
