We have no business in Syria. We have no interest and they are not an ally. We don't even have diplomatic relations with them and we closed their Embassy in DC a year ago.

We initially went in because of chem weapons and Russia "Made A Deal" with Assad to give them up. And they did and Obama took credit...which was a lot of cr**.

With that done, we should have withdrawn and gone home. Oh no....we had to start arming these so called rebels who turned out to be ISIS and Obama. And we spent some big bucks to train them, too. And wound up with 8 soldiers at a cost of $500,000.

Obama....Russia is doing the job. Go home and shut up.

The American-trained rebels cost closer to $4 million. Each!

Unbelievable I know. I guess the 'training' is just a front for sending arms, equipment, military vehicles, salaries and healthcare (for all I know) to ISIS.
