> the USA has no business continuing the Obama-McCain war in Syria <

You beat me to it. I’m no expert. But I do try to follow the news as best I can. And I have no idea why we have troops in Syria. Whose side are we on? Who are we fighting?

If an average American (me) cannot answer those basic questions, it’s probably wise to get our troops out of there.

At one point, the CIA backed forces were fighting the US Army backed forces in Syria.

As the whole mess, it all dates back to when the Obama regieme was overthrowing moderate governments in the middle east and north Africa to replace them with Islamic militants. Assad refused to roll over for the Obama backed terrorists, and fought on alone until Putin saw an opportunity. That gave the Egyptians the fortitude to overthrow the Islamic militants that Obama had installed there. Unfortunately, the Turks weren't as successful as they lacked the will to do what was necessary.

Now, if you want to look at a real Obama - Clinton mess, check out what is going on in Libya.
