There isn’t a plan other than ensuring the defense contractors get to pump out weapons to go to Syria for the next 10 years.

. These airstrikes aren’t being done to help the rebels and there was no push or backing from the US to do what’s happened the last several weeks.

You don’t find the timing of this to be a bit odd?

Were you mad that America abandoned a billion dollars worth of weaponry and equipment in Afghanistan that the Taliban ended up seizing?

If so, why are you questioning this move by Israel and the US?

The point is that the very agencies that Trump said he’s going to neuter have every motivation to cause as much chaos as possible before Trump takes office. I have no doubt they had a hand in causing the fall of Syria on purpose.

[Chorus]
And it's 1, 2, 3
What are we fighting for?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn
Next stop is Vietnam
And it's 5, 6, 7
Open up the pearly gates
Ah, ain't no time to wonder why
Whoopee!
We're all gonna die


Who are we fighting again? And who are we fighting for?

Not everything is a conspiracy. Trump bombed Syria during his first term.

Not at all. Russia and Iran are weak due to other engagements they should never have started. They were the ones protecting Syria.

They are going to purchase weapons from U.S MIC companies with those pallets of cash. Just another way the Federal Reserve bank prints money.

Think he was referring to the timing of the Israel & US air strikes on Assad’s weapons cache

Right. But it is always a confluence of interest.

TBD. These bombings just ensure whomever it is will be a neutered little puppy with no real military hardware to be a regional threat.

That's exactly what someone engaged in a conspiracy would say.

The (rightful) primary concern of everyone is that jihadists just took over Syria after a 13 year civil war.

Israel and the US deployed a mission to destroy the weapons left behind by the Assad regime.

I don’t see how this is controversial or in any way a conspiracy against trump.

He didn’t try to overthrow the govt

Limited bombing =\= full ground invasion by a coalition of terrorists

That attack was theatre. We told the Russians what we were doing, and let the Syrians remove what they wanted to remove first. And then the Russians intercepted most of the missiles we fired.

I think it was Trumps way of playing the Pentagon and the Neocons. They got their strike, but it didn't have any actual impact.

The Syrian civil war started years before Trump ran for office the first time.

How could that have been orchestrated by people wanting to undermine Trump's presidency?
