I’d rather see ground troops sent to the NSA and CIA...cleaning them out first, then Syria.

“This isn’t even fake news. It is a CNN wet dream posing as news!”

It’s also a NeoCon’s wet dream as well, if not more so.

Frankly, we do need troops, but they’re needed most inside that Beltway where the ‘domestic’ part of the “enemies, foreign and domestic” are crawling around like cockroaches.

Please stay out America. Now is the time for North America to take a step back. Both of our countries need to pull away from the insanity of the rest of the world and take care of ourselves. Fortress North America.

Reagan managed not to fall for this kind of stuff.

Are we so sure that Mattis and his Bush-veteran underling taking over the NSC are good, non-neocon ideas?

Only if the Syrian government invites them and we know the parameters. Otherwise, it’s an invasion we don’t want to make.

It’s CNN.

Even if it were true, the answer is NO;

Matter of fact, pull ALL of the SOF out now!

Sorry about shouting.

What a bloody mess that would be. Don’t get me wrong, I would love to see McCain’s allies be sent home in body bags, but how do we stay out of the way of Russian and Syrian forces?

Just to send McCain over the edge, how about we agree to share limited satellite intel with Assad? Give him some targets. Maybe that cave or whatever McCain visited over there?

Don’t worry, TBP can’t hear you. The Viking Kitties have spoken.
