And there are US warplanes “ over Syria” exactly where and why?
Has the UN declared the Assad government to be illegal or illegitimate?
Has the UN issued a resolution authorizing outside military forces to operate in Syria? ( Russia is there at the request of Assad’s govt, see above)
Has the US congress authorized the use of US military forces in Syria?
Syria and Russian forces in Syria, a client of Russia for 50 years, now pose an immediate threat to the national security of the US or NATO in what way?
Good questions...
Bingo! Someone write up the rational for us being in Syria. There isn’t one.
It is of no strategic value, we have no economic interest there and if Israel had a problem, we would feed them ammo and let them handle it.
Our involvement makes no sense.
Russia has a strategic interest in Syria as it allows them to use one of their ports for fleet operations.
Let them clean up the mess.
Who gives a crap if Russia is on the ground and in the air in Syria.
You ask a good question..WHY are WE over there at all?
Eff them and the House of Saud. Hopefully they will all kill themselves. The only thing the West should be doing is closing the door to Muslim migrants.
