You can’t lump all the opposition to Assad as terrorists. And ISIS is in a class by itself. It is a global jihadist movement, which directly threatens us.

Where is Obama?

Jennifer Griffin says she received a 4 am phone call. I heard the news alerts at 6 am. Haven’t heard from POTUS. This is kind of important—but that’s just me.

These animals need to go period Kabar.....frankly I don’t care if Assad stays or goes....this war has got to stop and personally any willing to go after these thugs no matter what side they’re fighting against or for makes zero difference to me....

Most of the millions of Syrian citizens are out of there...as well as the Syrian Army that was once fighting to oust Assad....what’s left are all bad guys.... ....might as well get this done now rather than extend this war any further....
Two thumbs up for all the bombing IMO.....get it done!

Ash Carter pretty much gave Putin the green light, even though Putin lied to them. He said they weren’t going to take any action against Russia.

Civil wars don't stop until one side surrenders. Personally? Are you going to put your a$$ on the line and go after them? It is easy to be a tough guy when you don't have to do the fighting.

"We know Russia has trolls operating on the internet, so why the heck would or should we think they wouldn't be on this large and popular political forum?"

Please let us know who the prime suspects are.

Sadly war brings death....Russia said to get out of the way...so if our guys get caught in the crosshairs I blame Obama fully....his obsession to unseat Assad has gone well beyond reason....especially since other nation leaders want this a done deal In Syria.....nobody wants more Syrian Refugees crossing over.....

BTW...you do know that is was Erdogan who set this fire off.....he has great asperations for Syria so he cut loose all the Syrian refugees to force the US and Eu to do more in Syria.....(remember Muslim leaders in the ME use their people in mass to create situations favorable to their agendas...there were many who questioned why Turkey was so eager in taking so many refugees in)

Fight who, and on behalf of exactly what ?


This is the best question. Quite frankly we had better get out of the way with this president in charge.

Strategy is not semantics. You suggest one goal is a strategy? Let’s say we defeated ISIS. Now what?

We have no national interest in Syria. We had no legitimate reason to depose Assad. The humanitarian cost of this administration’s reckless interventionism has far exceeded all of Assad’s alleged atrocities.

Destabilizing Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen was supposed to usher in peace? Only if you believe the Madhi prophecies.

Our military leadership is infected with the Stockholm Syndrome. Islam is inherently evil, as are all its true practitioners. It is completely irreconcilable with a pluralistic society.

What's happening in Syria long passed any definition of a civil war years ago as soon as the protests were hijacked. This is all about who gets to run Syria when the dust clears.....and there are many nation leaders all laying claim who are using terrorist groups to see who gets there first.

Iran, Saudi, Turkey, all want to be the Master Ruler over the Caliphate rule....and they're all going for the gold which from their perspective is Syria.

The US simply wants an agreeable partner to further their Globalist agenda....Assad said no.....just like Mubarak, and Gaddafi said no.... We are in the business of regime change....and that is obvious to even the uninformed now.

P.S. Any time McCain shows his face it's a certainty.
