“Assad is a genocidal killer in training”
If you want to see a genocidal killer in training, take a look in the mirror.
Another armchair general supporting mass murdering terrorists in Syria for some contrived real politic goal.
At least our politicians are bought by Saudi Arabia and Qatar, while you have no such excuse.
“This group needs some Stingers to show Putin that there will be a high price for his aggression.”
Yes how dare Putin show aggression against terrorists who are actively genociding minorities.
Let’s arm the terrorists to escalate and prolong the war so more innocents get butchered.
Someday you should read a newspaper, not the NY Times or Wash. Compost, but the European ones who have real reporters covering the war in Syria.
Just read what the Russians have been doing to Aleppo and other cities in the name of fighting ISIS.
Putin is using the ages old Russian/Soviet tactics of taking out a flea with a bomb. Look at how they dealt with snipers and other German troops in Berlin, or any other city they “liberated”.
They also slaughtered Hungarian freedom fighters in 1956 the same one. One sniper and the whole block came down regardless if there were non-combatants in those homes.
The same for Afghanistan. I assume you’ve heard of Afghanistan. It’s a shithole over there somewhere where the Soviets killed over a million Afghani civilians.
Putin is just one in a long line of Russian mass murderers, be it of their own people or someone else’s. However, he is a lot smarter than some of his predecessors because he has American dupes to do his propagandizing for him.
When you grow up, you’ll find that a little knowledge is dangerous but a well-balanced set of knowledge covering a long period of time, can be useful in making pronouncements about things you don’t know but postulate on.
