Getting rid of Assad will create an even bigger power vacuum in the Middle East.
It's more urgent to get rid of ISIS than Assad.

“Getting rid of Assad will create an even bigger power vacuum in the Middle East.

Do we actually have a strategy?
We help Iran get the bomb.
We help the Saudi’s against Assad (Iran’s ally).
We help overthrow distasteful governments with no plan for a stable successor (Libya).

Putin is a Russian nationalist and wants to control the Ukraine and Mideast oil. He seems to have a strategy. What’s ours?

If we weren’t backing muslim extremists who are trying to overthrow Assad he would have already taken care of ISIS. In fact, I don’t believe ISIS would even be in Syria.

This country will never learn that some places just naturally must be ruled by dictators.
