Putin urges Syria's Assad to invite Trump for visit
The Hill ^ | 01/12/20 | ZACK BUDRYK

Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly suggested during a meeting with Bashar al-Assad last week that the Syrian president invite President Trump to Damascus.

In a video of the conversation between Assad and Putin at the Orthodox Church of the Virgin Mary in Damascus, Assad mentions the Apostle Paul’s conversion to Christianity after a vision at the gate of Damascus, Axios reported.

“If Trump arrives along this road, everything will become normal with him too," the Syrian leader said, according to the news outlet.

All you have to think of about this is the way the Media, the Democrats [but I repeat myself] and the Twitter bluechecks treated Tulsi Gabbard for being a grownup and meeting with Assad.

I don't have any information on the picture, either way.

Can you help me out here? (Not trolling: this *is* the first I've heard of that accusation.)

If Putin is pushing Assad to do it, that ought to be enough to stay far away.

Because the Sunni government in DC hates him.

As everyone was laughing in the video clip, I think this was meant as a joke.

Basher Assad is a clone of his father, Hafiz Assad. Dad was one of the BIGGEST murderers in the Middle East in modern times. The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

Trump will know not to trust an Assad as far as he can throw him.

The ludicrous implication here is, that President Trump is Paul the Executioner before his conversion by the visitation of the Lord Jesus and his later total devotion to Christ Jesus and subsequent Sainthood.
This implication alone is reason to disregard this entirely.

Oh great, we know have Hezbollah supporting Freepers! Do you have any idea what a monster this guy is? Look up the American, Israeli, Lebanese and Syrian blood he has on his hands. Nice to know the fellows you’d like to travel with. Geez!

Trump needs to clear Syria and Lebanon of all Iranian military presence.

You are absolutely right about Trump meeting with this guy. If there’s a chance to move American interests and peace forward, Trump should meet with anyone, even the ayatollah. But these loons on this thread thinking its a great idea for Trump to go to Damascus, incredible. I’m sure the Secret Service will second Putin’s idea of Trump in Syria. Maybe have a parade with Trump sitting on the back of a convertible.

You really feel safe with Trump on a publicized trip to Syria?

First I've heard of Gabbard's "RSS support".

You also have to remember that Gabbard is a "Putin puppet", and a supporter of "mass-murderer" Assad, both of whom protect Christians and Muslims.

The Mideast has always been a sh*t sandwich for the USA. We keep biting it. The Saudis can defend themselves as can Israel. At one time Iraq was the balance to Iran but we did Iran a huge favor by taking out Saddam and Obama giving them cash and legitimizing Iran to the left.

She didn't wear a head scarf

Pelosi is scum. Assad's own wife doesn't wear a head scarf except when meeting with some of the Muslim demographics in Syria.

Syria is 20% Christian and both they and the Alawites don't cover their women's faces in sacks

This is how Putin will secretly deliver the winning campaign strategy to Trump this time.
Assad is the messenger boy.

Pelozi will never figure it out. :)
