Fiorina: US Must Be Ready To Use Force Against Russia In Syria
Daily Caller ^ | 10/2/15 | RACHEL STOLTZFOOS

Posted on 10/02/2015 11:43:48 AM PDT by jimbo123

Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina said the U.S. “must be prepared” to shoot down Russian jets in Syria, if that’s what it takes to protect U.S.-backed rebels fighting Assad.

“I believe we must tell the Russians that we will conduct, we will secure a no-fly zone around anti-Assad rebel forces that we’re supporting,” Fiorina said on Fox News Wednesday night.

“Does that mean we might use force against Russian jets?” host Sean Hannity asked.

“Well, hopefully not,” Fiorina replied. “Hopefully, if we are signaling clearly to the Russians our intention, it will not come to that. But if it does come to that, I think we must be prepared.”

Why do all establishment GOP leaders always pick the wrong side?

She has been Gramnestied and McCainized!

Assad, the still legal head of Syria, invited the Russians in.

Really, she did not go far enough. When the Ruskies walked into the Iraq embassy and told us to get our of Syrian Air, we should have told them, bite me, we will fly our planes anywhere anytime!

Will you be so critical when people want no fly over Kurdish areas???

This effing madness. Go to war with Russia over a bunch of Muslim terrorists?

What about when the Ruskies start bombing Kurds?

So when the Ruskies bomb the Kurds, that's all good because Syria invited them in?

WTF? You want to get in a shooting war with the Russians over Muslims?

Contemplate this: She is so deranged that she imagines that the American people are even SLIGHTLY interested in continuing Obama’s failed shadow war against Syria's leadership.

Yeah, MIGHT fly if she was proposing shooting down Russian planes that are protecting ISIS positions, but our six million dollar REBELS?

I'd say that this is out of context, but nope, she's been pushing on this for more than a week now.

Fiorina, you're the weakest link, GOODBYE!

“My fellow Americans, I’m pleased to tell you today that I’ve signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.”....

Carly looks like she could go from ‘nice’ to ‘real bitch’ in about 2 seconds flat.

“Fiorina: US Must Be Ready To Use Force Against Russia In Syria”

Hell, why not. The world hasn’t seen a world war in a long time. Plus, by getting this next one over sooner rather than later, we won’t have to worry about another for a few hundred more years.

Carly and her good friend BB Netanyahu need to assure Israel’s partner the House of Saud that Syria will be delivered to them for the purpose of gas and oil line transit to Turkey and Europe.
Carly is just a shill like the other war mongers. So patriotic and supportive of the Vets.
Carly may have some talent with her memory and her speech but there is something missing.
Something important!!!!!!

Jeez, I leave the forum and stop listening to the news for a week and ALL the ‘Pubbies lose their minds. We should be supporting the Russkis and Assad.
What do Walker and Cruz say?

If we attack Russia right now, it will distract Russia from ISIS, enabling ISIS to continue to work to overthrow Assad; then Russia’s allies will galvanize against the United States and that will create even more chaos, likely an economic war and that is something we can’t sustain, we would collapse. That last thing we need is for Russia’s ally China to become a full open enemy and the Chinese could pull something that could collapse our already comatose economy.

The Russians won’t just shoot back, the Russians will capture and torture our soldiers.

Syria has ALWAYS been closely aligned with Soviet Union/Russia since the days of the Cold War.

If the Govt of Syria wants an ally to help, who the hell are we to start DECLARING “no fly zones” over another sovereign state’s assistance request from an ally.

Have they? We have no business of supporting or protecting Obama’s rebels.
