[MS13 uses 9mm ammo, just like LAPD, should the police sell them some ammo? Turkey is attacking the Syrians for attacking ISIS and other rebels inside their own country.]

It’s not Turkey that keeps flying nuclear bombers right up to the edge of Alaska’s airspace. It’s not Turkey that has thousands of nukes aimed at American cities. As enemies go, ISIS is a midget. Russia and China are the big ones.
Drama. WWII was coming because of Nazi Germany and Japan. The Russia non-aggression pact was basically another Munich agreement, trying to buy time. Stalin was not about to launch WWII into Europe. That was the basis of his whole feud with Trotski. T wanted worldwide revolution, Stalin wanted to turn inward with his control freak mass murder show.
As for the cold war, that ended almost 30 years ago. And what Turks did in Korea 60 years ago is meaningless. As for nuclear bombers, a lone TU-95 on patrol isn’t on it’s way to nuke us. If that day came it would be ICBMs and Sub missiles.
For all your fulminating, Russia isn’t the problem in Syria. They are all that saved Syria from a Sunni theocratic terror regime.
ISIS was created by the CIA/Saudis/and the gulf states for the purpose of removing Assad. Assad is an Alawite, neither Shia nor Sunni. Assad was the most liberal of any regime in the area.
Under Assad, you could be a Christian, a Jew at one of the two remaining Synagogues who were not pro-zionist and didn’t leave in 1948. You could be a woman and wear what you wanted. A woman could hold a job or get the education she wanted. She could drive a car. She could drive a car to Latakia beach where she could dance to music in a swimsuit while drinking Syrian wine....at a beach party. She could marry or divorce as she wanted.
And their elections are not as clean as ours, but they are at least up to California standards, and she could vote for Assad or against him.
We tried to replace that with a Saudi Sunni Wahabbist model.
Those TU-95s you are mad at helped blow up the rebels and save Syria. Turkey is the bad guys, and we are in the same camp, still trying to overthrow Assad.
Syria is better under Assad than under any government we were trying to create.
It’s retarded, and not authorized by anything more than the 9/11 use of force authorization.
