Unfortunately, there are some on this board who are fine with the Syrian Christians being slaughtered, as long as they can poke a stick in the eye of Putin.

################

Or just genocide the Christians. Putin may or may not be gravy to those people whose feet are swift to shed blood.

I hope not. The question: “Who comes after Assad?” has no good answers.

Without the travel ban in place, you better believe Syria is a threat to the US.

You have no idea what’s come into the US in the last ten years.

The last time Saudi Arabia supplied the chemicals to the Syrian rebels.

ISIS has used them about 50 times in the past.

Assad got rid of all of his chemical weapons several years ago. Saudi Arabia provided the chemical weapons for the previous attack by the rebels.

The Infamous Ghouta Chemical Weapons Attack, Two Years on: All Out War on Syria Is Still “The Main Course for US”

I should expand that list of those who want to oust Assad because he didn’t go along with having a natural gas pipeline go through his country that will stretch from Qatar to Europe.

Think about that. Starting WW3 over a natural gas pipeline. But it’s bigger than that. They want to stop Russia and China from creating a gold-backed world-reserve currency that will supplant the fiat US Dollar. Look what happened to Khaddafi when he tried to create a pan-African, gold-backed dinar.

The countries that are backing WW3 are the US, Europe, Israel, Turkey, Saudi Arabia. It basically an alliance of European Leftist elites and the Sunni Muzzies. They are doing everything to provoke the East (Russia, China, and the Shia Muzzies) into a world war.

And we will get it.

I have every idea. Why did you assume I didn’t? You don’t have to lob rockets to keep refugees out. if that was the case we’d be nom,bing 10 or so countries. You are mixes two unrelated ideas.

These aren’t “refugees,” and yes, it’s related.

You dont understand.

Assad and his Hezzbollah terrorist friends from the ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN are just other versions of ISIS.

The war in Syria is nothing but mainly two Islamic factions fighting eachother ! Assad and Irans Shia Hezbollah on one side, and Sunnie ISIS on the other side.

Frankly I dont understand why some here on FR chose one Islamic gang over the other??

BOTH islamic groups are our ennemies!
