Kinda like how we bankrupted the USSR in the 80s?

2- Remain. Fight... either large scale or smaller.

So we are globalists now.

At least we are accepting that now.

Nice write-up, now I'm still waiting on the proof.

Hey, if they can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the chemical weapons came from Syria Military I'm all in for whatever it takes.

So far it has just been media hacks from both sides--America and Russia--spouting off drivel like biatches they are.

I have no freaking idea who is using Chemical Weapons and why. Neither do any of you here on this forum. We weren't there and we will hear stories from both sides of the conflict say it was the other.

What we go on is what we already know. And, that is this:

Russia wants Assad to say in power as it is vital to their survival right now. If Assad falls and the Western Cartel gets their pipeline through Syria into Europe, Europe is free of Russia energy hegemony on that mass of a continent.

Western interests--American, NATO, and Europe--wish Assad's ouster as the access to cheaper energy will help the burden of an overburdened financial system laden with debt. Cheaper energy alleviates a lot of ills.

So, this is obviously about resources. Most all wars have always been about resources and power over those resources--Power.

I don't have any idea who is telling the truth and truly don't care anymore. If they want to fight, then fight and get it over with. Don't drag this out as we have done with the Korea's since the 1950's. Finish it and let's focus on our nation and rebuilding it.

That is an outcome.

Of them being mired in the ME and our behind the scenes meddling.

It seems that y'all want to take USSR's role in that situation.

To a degree, yes.

Potatoe tomato

A globalist is a globalist. Keep supporting our involvement in the Iraqs and Afghanistans of the world. Y'all never learn anything from our past incursions.

Hooray more regime changes. Hooray more instability.

And finally, counter to all the BS many people on here spew, hooray more refugees moving to Europe.

March, 2013, regime forces launched several airstrikes on the town of Khan al-Assal.

21st of August, 2013, regime forces have again bombarded the eastern Ghouta of Damascus

23rd of December, 2013, as the latter has bombarded with missiles loaded with BZ gas the city of Homs

29th of April, 2014, through using Sarin gas...on the town of Saraqib

In the same month in 2014, regime helicopters have dropped barrel bombs containing Chlorine poisonous gas on the city of Kafrzeita

9th of February, 2016, regime forces have bombarded the city of Arbin in Damascus countryside using bombs loaded with toxic gas that caused suffocations among civilians.

Assad regime has bombarded the city of Saraqib again in 2016 using barrel bombs loaded with poisonous gases which led to the injury of 30 civilians.

On the 10th of August, 2016, regime's helicopters bombarded with barrel bombs loaded with Chlorine the neighborhood of al-Zaydiah in Aleppo

12th of December, 2016, the same warplanes bombarded the region of Uqayribat

March, 2017, The city of al-Latamihan in the countryside of Hama

So, the gas/chems propaganda began at the same time we invaded the area for the purpose of regime change.

I'm sure it's all just one big coincidence.

Very good question.

I'm not for ousting Assad, because what will take his place will likely be the same. Like the old 'Who' song says, "Out with the old Boss in with the New; same as the old boss".

They will put a Western puppet in their to do their bidding I'd suppose. Another snake and pretend their is democracy. Some nut cult will form like ISIS in the vacuum that will ensue.

If the government is friendly to the US though I could careless about what happens in their country.

I voted for the guy who said we would start seeing the spoils of spending out 'dime' on these adventures abroad--i.e. Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, etc... We want to see the spoils instead of more debt. What f'ing country dominates the world and actually fires up the credit card instead of taking their spoils and paying down our debt?? WTF?

Bc we want every country to have a democracy

MButterfly,

The intelligence community concluded that the Syrians were not responsible for the Ghouta attack. The Sarin used in that attack wasn't military grade, and did not resemble the samples we had on record.
