You know.The president announced that we would leave. Then he failed to keep that promise and lingered and the urging of the deep state. Look at his feckless responses to the lies about Assad gassing his civilians ( No finding EVER of that allegation) . First, Trump bombs an empty runway which is repaired that day. Then we fires 107 !!! Cruise missiles and purports to have destroyed two old empty buildings. I don’t think our beloved president has his heart in it. He needs to get rid of haley and Bolton and I am beginning to doubt Mattis.

Don’t know what you’re smoking, and I don’t want any of it.

Without Asange, Trump would never have gotten elected.

Without Snowden we would still be believing the spoofed crap the CIA lays on congress and the courts.

Bolton is often Trump’s only reliable link with the real world of “diplomacy.”

Bolton is to international relations as Ted Cruz is to our Bill of Rights. We’d already be global clients without them.

What about Fiona Hill? She has a resume only McCain could love. The Swamp has done a job isolating President Trump from people who want to end the warmongering.

It’s a dingleberry of Obamunist policy that still hangs on. Jihadi Johnny’s moslem murder monkeys were about to be finished off, and we can’t have that.

In addition, the anti-Christ, squint eyed hunchbacks in the region we laughingly call allies resent the failure to displace Assad and complete the genocide of Christian and other non-Sunni minorities in Syria. That work is unfinished, so they snap their fingers and we hasten to their bidding.

He may not be able to. There is no malice beyond the pale for neoconartists. Murder is at their very core.

*** are we just warning the Russians to be careful and not harm us in their attempts to crush ISIS and other anti Assad groups? - Tom ***

The US trains foreign fighters at Al Tanf, lots of pics of it on the internet. Russia and Syria have drones, and satellite recon photos.

Also we recently sent 200 Marines to Al Tanf, so I wonder if we just sent another batch.

The Syrians and the Russians are committed by their own announced plans ... don’t for a minute imagine the Russians will back down. They are testing various pieces of mil equipment for worldwide sale - they represent a major part of the Russian economy after oil.

The Syrians will go in first this time but the results will be different. 100 marines won’t change the outcome either. Interesting times.

So, you’re OK with American troops and diplomats being dragged before the ICC?

Its easy to pull the cover off of guys like you.

Sure, lets get rid of Bolton and just surrender to Global rule.

The base is used by U.S. special forces to train Syrian fighters who are confronting Islamic State militants.

Protecting them is more like it.
