Sometimes the only thing worse than U. S. involvement is no U. S. involvement.

IMO < the McCain, Clinton, Graham, Rubio, et al goal was to push through and remove Assad. That was not something I was interested in. Assad isn’t perfect, but Syria could do a heck of a lot worse.

Going after ISIS and other terrorist entities is a decent thing to do. Basically it’s the U. S. troops (in the region) we needed winding down Iraq.

I think the goals of this seem decent.

I support it.

It would be silly to pull out and let ISIS regroup.

Trump has it about right here IMO.

Let the people of Syria take care of Assad, and without game playing (I might add).

ISIS is Islam. There is no reason to think defeating ISIS is even possible. It doesn’t matter what name it calls itself, it’s all Islam. The US is crazy to try to depose a relatively sane leader in an otherwise insane Muslim middle east.
