Everyone needs to settle down a bit and think this over. Obama pulled out of Iraq when he shouldnt have. Then low and behold here comes ISIS. They promptly expanded the conflict all over the Mid East. Somebody dropped chemical weapons for about the 20th time in Syria. Only thing is, Obama drew his Red err Pink line in the sand and either Assad or somebody else used them to show how friggan weak Obama was. Laughed right in our faces they did.
Russia gets involved since Obama hasnt a clue. Why? Because Russia has a warm water Naval Base in Syria and there is no way in hell they are gonna sit back and watch that go away-matter of fact, they signed an agreement with Syria to expand that base in Jan of this year. That is why they are supporting Assad.
Now comes Trump, they cross his line. And what the hell is he supposed to do? Sit there and watch them thumb their noses at us?
So some here howled when Obama showed his pink side and did nothing, yet gripe when Trump shows there is a line and if they cross it, watch out.
Russia is not, nor will they ever give up that naval base and I dont care how GD small it is now. I bet Assad stays.
One other thing to consider. Even Hitler, one of the most evil SOBs that ever walked the earth, never used chemical weapons. Yet these animals do, and they dont care. These bastards will kill every “infidel” in the world, and then will kill each other just for practice.
BTW. Wonder where all those chemical weapons that Saddam shipped out of Iraq went to? And these weapons have to be maintained and delivered properly. So who has the know how to do that?
Trump put the world on notice. He had to.
Great post, thanks for bringing clarity to the chicken Little party.
