Trump hits Syria

[ravenmaniac4life]

Good point. But still, a strategy can at least be gleamed. What if Syria doesn't stop using chemical weapons? What's next, troops on the ground? I'm not in favor of another long protracted war with no end goal in sight. Even though that would benefit me personally.

I know. I'm sure Mattis already has a plan.

Not sure what I would do, but Lindsey Graham doesn't seem to be a fan.

What did he think would've been justified, a nuclear attack?

I'm not exactly sure what Dirt is criticizing. Should Trump have done nothing and lose the 'deterence' factor? Or did Trump not do enough and it's not really deterent? Or should we have done nothing at all?

Syria is complicated. Assad is a opressive dictator, but he also is actively fighting against Islamic extremists which we dislike as a nation due to our concerns over a small religious state we decided should exist after WWII

classic case of the US being in too many places for no reason

They don’t want anyone to run it. They want a total wasteland.

I watched that segment.

Tucker makes amazing points on this. It's hard to argue against any of them. The people he invites on his shows do...and the debates have been fantastic to watch.

"America must go to war in Syria, immediately!" - everyone in power

Why?

Here's the thing that I can't wrap my head around. Putin wont let the UN inspect to see who is responsible for the chemical attack. To me, that is an admission of guilt. Even if he thinks the UN will "plant something" or "lie about something" in order to justify the bombing raid...his people can work with the UN to make sure that doesn't happen.

Regardless, what does the US get out of this?

Tucker echoes my thoughts on Syria perfectly.

...and he does it without making grand claims or anything over the top.

He wants to know the truth! So do I!

Really, what is the point?

I think we should get the hell out of Syria. It sounds like the POTUS wants to as well.

Damn right we should get out of Syria. Because regime change has worked so well every time we've tired it. Trump campaigned being against the "Bush doctrine". Yet, he has bombed Syria twice now. Could it be, it doesn't matter who is POTUS? Because it appears the establishment always wins.

It seems that way doesn't it.
