As a Former vet, (long ago) where I was proud to serve. I question the direction, and the involvement of our armed forces (blood) in fighting useless wars.
Syria is a Russian ally, and has a "right" to defend it.
What are we doing there??? (never thought I would say that)
Everything Obummer has done was to destroy this fine nation of ours. Treason I believe the word is.
I'm an AF Vet (long ago) also, and agree 100%.
Who decided that Syria was vital to our national interests? What city (cities) are the American people willing to have reduced to a radioactive pit in a fight over Syria?
Look at the so-called "leadership" that has been installed - Stupid people make stupid decisions. I just pray America isn't punished for them.
Brother,
We are there because Obama got us there. His efforts to escalate military action in the middle east, which we know has been there for a thousand years, is just part of his plan to give the state of Islam an excuse to stretch its wings and occupy more to gain a foothold on the western world. By pushing us into Syria, he is forcing the big boys, Russia, to get into the play. And guess what, two non-Islamic controlled countries are in it for nothing but Obama’s islamic purposes.

We are in Syria to install the Muslim Brotherhood.
That was the planned end result of “The Arab Spring”. The instalattion of the Muslim Brotherhood everywhere there and the transformation into the caliphate.
But as usual, the incompetent boob running ur government screwed up what they actually wanted- and gave birth to ISIS
The muslim brotherhood was too warm and fluffy for ISIS who just wanted to kill everryon and take over NOW
If you will remember back about 6 or 7 years ago, Glen Beck, then on FOX, before he went independent and wacko, predicted that Obama would try to overthrow the various nations of North Africa and work into the Middle East. I never could understand why.
Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Syria. This has unleashed a flood of “refugees” who are flooding into Europe destroying the stability of the continent.
Now Yemen, Iraq again, Afghanistan, still, and parts of Turkey are in play.
Oh well, as long as it does not interfere with his golf game...
Why are we supporting ISIS in Syria? I think that is who is opposing Russia and Assad, right?
Beyond stupid.
Starting WWIII over which sect of Islam should be top dog in any particular geographic area in the MENA.
That’s WAY beyond stupid. There is not even a word for it.
Why are we there? Several reasons:
1. Because Hillary and the left hate Israel and the Jewish people so much, they’ll cause a third world war just to wipe out Abraham’s seed and thereby try to refute scripture and Judeo Christian values
2. Because Islamic radicals like ISIS are allied to liberals. Hillary even helped arm them. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Liberals and Muslims are enemies of the united states
3. They want to diversify the west through any means by promoting more refugee crisis’ and spread the twisted cult of murder and death throughout the world
4. Russia under Putin is starting to become more and more Christian. The Russians are against queer rights, they are against Sharia law and multi-culturalism and are for traditional values. They are moving in a positive direction and the left in America can’t stand it!!!
5. perpetual war including terrorism by muslims enforces totalitarian rulership which all liberals want. They want to erode the constitution and promote socialist tyranny over our lives!
What are we doing there???
***********
Trying to set up the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria. Look at Libya and other examples of Obama’s misguided and destructive policies. In this case he wants Assad out and the MB in.
I share those thoughts, Syria is not a threat to our national security. If we were to do anything at all in Syria, set up a safe zone for refugees. Other than that, if attacked, attack back. We need to stay our of this civil war.
The igmos in our gubbamint just can't help themselves. We've now entered an area of danger, war with Russia. What are they thinking?
Let’s just hope and pray that Putin and his fellow leaders have the wisdom and the patience to resist the provocations until January 20th. This, of course, assumes that Trump is elected and will actually assume office on that date. Putin knows that Trump will be very pro-american, but very reasonable.
Obama has been utterly reckless, and Clinton will be worse, if anything. In fact, I would be more worried if Clinton appears to win the election (and I say “appears” because we all know that there will be a great deal of fraud; I fully expect that the election will be contested no matter who appears to win), than I would be about Clinton banning entire classes of firearms by executive order after January 20th (and I am virtually certain that she will do that, and worried about that). I think that the Russians know that Clinton is utterly a tool of Works and the one-worlders, and they hate Russia and Putin.
Dhimmicrats are good at plowing headlong into wars and
starting wars; then when a Republican gets in office; it
suddenly becomes the sole responsibility of the Repubs to
RETREAT!! Democrats can always write their own narrative.
As a country, we’re pretty stupid about foreign policy. Pretty much from the get go.
Bring our troops home.
Everything we’ve touched in the ME has turned to crap because we’re not ruthless enough to make our will stick.
Let the Sov, er, Russians handle it. They know how to deal with savages.
"Overseas Contingency Plan" sounds so much more helpful. /s
Both the neocons and left interventionists - almost all of them chickenhawks, or failures, or pogues - posture with bleating about national strength and dominance. In fact they have all seriously weakened America, and are now exporting bad will, and importing our enemies.
Worth quoting from time to time:
“Sun Tzu said: In the operations of war, where there are in the field a thousand swift chariots, as many heavy chariots, and a hundred thousand mail-clad soldiers, with provisions enough to carry them a thousand LI, the expenditure at home and at the front, including entertainment of guests, small items such as glue and paint, and sums spent on chariots and armor, will reach the total of a thousand ounces of silver per day. Such is the cost of raising an army of 100,000 men.
When you engage in actual fighting, if victory is long in coming, then men’s weapons will grow dull and their ardor will be damped. If you lay siege to a town, you will exhaust your strength.
Again, if the campaign is protracted, the resources of the State will not be equal to the strain.
Now, when your weapons are dulled, your ardor damped, your strength exhausted and your treasure spent, other chieftains will spring up to take advantage of your extremity. Then no man, however wise, will be able to avert the consequences that must ensue.
Thus, though we have heard of stupid haste in war, cleverness has never been seen associated with long delays.
There is no instance of a country having benefited from prolonged warfare.
It is only one who is thoroughly acquainted with the evils of war that can thoroughly understand the profitable way of carrying it on.
The skillful soldier does not raise a second levy, neither are his supply-wagons loaded more than twice.”
soebarkah is islamist. The total destruction of the United States would be the ultimate jihad.
