The best option.
Align with Assad and the Russians. Kill all islamic terrorists. Give the other half of Syria to the Kurds. Tell Turkey if the bo.B the Kurds one more time outside their country they will not have an air force the next day.
Fully arm and train the Christians.

We could form a partnership with Russia to destroy ISIS and al Queda and let Assad take care of the rest.

countries that have no strategic goals can never achieve them.Wait a minute. If you have no goals, you always achieve them.

Syria is burning in part because the United States is waiting for a good solution.
We created this cluster phluck and now it is absolutely FUBAR, with perpetual chaos the only outcome

Wow
Google is a POS and reporting FR is rife with phishing.
Odd, since FR uses Screwgle analytics.

Just did some quick research and this is not a screwgle issue, rather, it is a Firefox issue.
So, no problem. I just got this phone and hadn’t switched to my old browser.
Buh bye....homo’s....

If I were running the War Department, I would stay out of Syria, but I would go back into Iraq and re-establish our presence and continue building the Iraq and Kurdish forces helping them to free themselves of ISIS and AQ as completely as possible. I would not bargain with the Iraq government, I would tell them exactly what we will do and exactly what they will do. The US is their only hope for any kind of a peaceful life and the Iraqi people seek that.

And who’s fault is that, hmmm?
To: Blood of Tyrants
We already formed a partnership with Russia to arm Iran with nukes. Russia isn’t the only partner to that plan, of course, but is in there.
Russia obviously does not want to partner with us, as they’ve made plain, with respect to Syria.
