Why does he think there’s going to be an after?
Awww, shaddup, Pootie Poot.
Shoot at our men on the ground and your airplane is gonna get shot down.
Townhall ... “Russia, Russia, Russia!!!”
Why is it always the moronic, inexperienced in the ways of the military ‘news media’ to begin banging the drums for direct conflict, any time any ship, plane, tank, or ground troop of Russia and America bump shoulders in the hockey game of annihilating ISIS?
So Putin is aligning with pro-ISIS regimes now?
The Soviets always had a fondness for muslim barbarism, just like the NAZIs and the european elite.
For the russians, the ME is merely a market to ply their wares, nothing more, nothing less.
Krathammer made an excellent point the other day...
We are moving into a scenario like the end of WWII...
Where powers to be were jocking for post war positions.
We all know ISIS is almost dead, just not finished...
There will be a mad scamble for Syria and its land...
This will be the true test of Trump foreign policy...
Assad is pro ISIS ?
Putin has always aligned Russia with Syria
Seriously, or did you mispost your comments.?
Russia is in Syria legally and with the permission of their treaty ally Syria.
The US is there because we’re trying to help Qatar and Saudi Arabia to build a gas pipeline to Europe across Syria. The strategic purpose of that pipeline is to harm Russia economically.
Syria said no to the plan and after they said no then all of the sudden the Obama Administration and John McCain decided that they had to arm the Islamic fundamentalists (who later became ISIS) so they could overthrow Assad and make way for the pipeline.
We destabilized one of the few stable Arab countries just so we could play economic chess with Russia.
And now the Russians are absolutely going to shoot back and I do not blame them one bit. The USA is 100% wrong in Syria. We created ISIS and now we’re using ISIS as a pretext to continue an undeclared war of aggression against a sovereign country that did us no harm and that was no threat to us or Israel.
I love our armed forces (I’m married to a Marine) but if they attack Russians or Russian allied then the result will be predictable.
We would not tolerate it if Russia were supporting a civil war in the United Kingdom or Israel and bombing government positions and shooting down their airplanes, would we?
Then why should Russia do any different?
Goose, meet gander.
There is no doubt this entire situation is a mess, but then situations like this are always a mess when the original enemy is routed and there is an all-out grab for power, territory, and assets remaining.
Iran wasn’t there before we destabilized the country.
That's not why Obama wanted to destabilize Syria.
Obama wants Assad gone for the same reason he wanted Qaddafi and Mubarak out.
He wants hard-lined islamic rule in these countries and that requires the destruction of moderating influences.
Patrick J. Buchanan - Official Website
After the ISIS War, a US-Russia Collision? (Creators.com
All these links have the same column by Pat Buchanan. Are you going to accuse them also of having written the op-ed, like you seem to do Town Hall?
When are you going to learn the difference between an author (Pat Buchanan) and publisher, like Townhall.com, Creators.com and WND?
The exception is his own website
Hard to find a single part of this quote that isn't incorrect.
We didn't create ISIS: they're more or less the same Baathist/al-Qaeda in Iraq guys who were attacking US soldiers a few years ago in Iraq. Zero's pathetic withdrawal from Iraq simply created the space for them to operate.
The Assad Syrian franchise operation didn't have any problem hosting them when they were killing Americans.
Almost all of Russia's and Syria's military operations have been directed against Syrian regime opponents, not ISIS.
As I am sure you know, Assad is an Alawite, a Shia/Twelver sect.
BTW, I didn’t know your husband is a Marine. Many thx to you and your husband for your service to our great country.
Obama tried to put his IslamoNazi bff’s into power in Syria, just like he did in Egypt and Libya and protected and armed and funded in Iran
four, at least, blatantly illegal wars or uses of our great nation’s fine military........to advance the spread of Islam of the very worst kind....
and now DJT has to figure out how to fix, repair what Obama destroyed..... not gonna be easy (and Putin will eventually lose his temper, too..nobody can stay calm in the face of repeated provocations ... forever)
“There will be a mad scamble for Syria and its land...
This will be the true test of Trump foreign policy...”
Why do we -want- Syria?
Thank you! I’ll pass that along!
He retired after 25 years going back and forth between active duty and reserve.
——Why do we -want- Syria?-—
I’m not sure we -want- Syria. I’m sure they will want our money to rebuild...
But we need to blunt Russia ? Align with Israel ?
