What business is it of ours?
Isn’t Syria fighting ISIS?
Sending a message to despots reminding them that America will step in when they use chemical weapons against civilians is not a terrible thing.
Isn’t Syria fighting ISIS?
They are.... and they're apparently getting reminded to fight well, and fight the right way. Hopefully tomorrow we send twice as many Tomahawks at ISIS locations.
This seems to have been written before the attacks but other than an apparently wrong guess about what Trump would do, I think the reasoning is better than that of anyone else out there, excepting maybe Trump. Trump knows.
Syria’s ruling Baath Party helped CREATE ISIS, then later got blowback.
Just as did Iraq’s Baath Party.
It’s no coincidence that ISIS’ leadership is populated with old Iraqi Baath Party regime officers.
