We created a real mess in Syria. I don’t disagree with that.

Sure we should be against ISIS. Just announcing our resolve on that matter would have gone a long way toward avoiding what is taking place now.

ISIS knew Obama wouldn’t do diddly.

Your thought that Syria is bad, and ISIS is worse, is right.

Honestly, the best thing we could do right now is withdraw our support from the anti-Syrian forces, and get to work destroying ISIS, with vigor.

Russia would quickly lose a reason to be in Syria.

It would stick around, but it might also pull out in time.

Obama drew them in masterfully. It’s a major destabilizing factor in the Middle East now.

I don’t agree with Obama’s position but it sure isn’t us who created a civil war that was happening 2 years before we even looked at that conflict. The Civil War started in 2011, ISIS didn’t even appear on the scene for another 1 or 2.

Putin couldn’t even win in Chechnya without making a Muslim Gangster in charge, let alone, a lot of people think the apartment bombings that preceded the 2nd Chechen war were staged by the government.

Putin has attacked a largely Christian nation in Ukraine and one that doesn’t have many Muslims at that.
