Why don’t they bypass Syria and go right through Jordan and Israel from Qatar and screw Iran, Iraq and the Turks. I’m sure POTUS DJT can make the deal happen.

Look harder - maybe take a trip there. They are NOT faking it, regardless of what we may wish.

Good thing we don’t have $21 TRILLION in debt, right..?

And that we’re all bullet-proof.

It would be nice to be as bullet-proof as your noggin.

You are correct. Now look at the starting points and follow the line to Syria. See a big difference?

Right. We could actually repay that debt by just getting reimbursed for the cost of the Marshall Plan....at the 2018 evaluation of the cost...plus compounded interest.

Remember NATO in Libya in 2011? "We're only there to protect civilians." What a laugh.

You're actually comparing the 0bama/Hillary destruction of Libya for their Arab Spring putsch to Trump's strike on Syrian chem factories?

I'm surprised your handle isn't Drumph20162020!

Sarah Sanders releases a statement saying President Trump has been clear he wants US forces in Syria to come home. Earlier Sunday, French President Macron said he convinced Trump to stay in Syria

Best news I’ve heard all day.

#11. Sounds like a plan to me. Now if only Putin would listen to you, or is he already? COLLUSION, COLLUSION, Thought Collusion!

Go with domestic fracking. It’s safer economically and sabotage-wise.

If you continue their policy, the answer is then yes.

I have to go there to read stats already in the public domain? Why bother when I can just take your word for it, instead of trusting my own lying eyes.

If you think this missile strike is equivalent to the destruction of Libya, if you think that Syria, in its current condition is equivalent to what Libya was and if you think Trump’s goals are equivalent to 0bama’s and Hillary’s then you’re a blithering idiot who knows nothing at all.

Sorry about the DU crack. What is your handle on the Ancient Aliens Fan Club forum?

Anyone remember the nuke war film “Threads” from the 1980s? Involved Iran, not Syria, but still chilling.

If you watched “Threads”, you’ll never forget it.
