TRUMP SHOCKER: U.S. Military Preparing For Full Withdrawal From Syria...

[Mr Natural]

gonna be a war there------time to clear out our vulnerable bases

Good! with any luck at all, they'll wipe themselves out and rid the world of their sick, twisted culture once and for all.

Great news. Mission accomplished.

Note to neo cons:

America has no right to "Occupy Syria".

Yeah, time to disengage. We've done enough damage over there. How many do we have to kill and maim? These are not just wars. It is time to come home.

No guff. This was such bullshit. There never was a civil war. Even now media outlets still keep referring it to a civil war even though the jihadists were from over 80 freaking countries bought and paid for by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and for some time in the beginning Turkey.

That is not a civil war. Its an invasion by Sunni mercenaries. Assad's already rebuilding. I wish the people of Syria well. And apologies for all the western nations who backed a plan to give Syria to the Muslim Brotherhood.

tiny----you are delusional. Syria is a MAJORITY sunni nation held
controlled by a minority alawite Baathist pro-Iranian cabal. -----What is true is lots of sunnis fled Iraq-----into Syria. To describe them as "WESTERN NATION PLANTS" is koranic
poetry-------and of course there are the "WESTERN CONTROLED"
kurds-----who somehow fall into the "SUNNI MERCENARY"
category in your befuddled mind. Sheeeesh----not all sunnis are
'MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD" Nothing will be well for Syria when
bashar prostitutes himself to Iran

And the majority of Sunnis didn't rebel. Did you miss that? Or that Assad's army didn't desert him and his Generals include Sunni, Shia and Christians. AND Syria is a secular nation with their law based on the French rule of law.

Elections are held and the government includes all religions AND women.

And the United Nations were the ones that came up with the statistics on where the jihadists came from.

I refuse to allow the Gulf States force Syrians to live under Sharia. I'm surprised so many in the west were willing to hand over Syria to the MB after the giant fuck up in Egypt. And the Assad opposition was the MB who were living abroad.

sure sure------ it was Egypt's MB. Everything will be fine now that
hero Assad is back complete with all that Saddam bequeathed him.
MB? wat happened to the ISIS libel?

right now the Baathist government has the support of Russia
and Iran. When you say "Baathist" think "RUSSIAN
IMPERIALISM" and "aggression" It is the fascist moiety
of both Teheran and Moscow------weird bedfellows----but ---that's
the way it is

I don't have opinions I have facts. ThE Syrian Army is mainly Sunni. Some of the most decorated are Sunni.

"The Syrian Arab Army has held its own for more than five years. Its numbers might have been depleted, as is normal for any wartime military, but a close glance at its military reveals that its core, perhaps unexpectedly to many, is Sunni.

The current minister of defense, Fahd al-Freij, is one of the most decorated officers in Syrian military history and hails from the Sunni heartland of Hama. The two most powerful intelligence chiefs, Ali Mamlouk and Mohammad Dib Zaitoun, have remained loyal to the Syrian government—and are both Sunnis from influential families.

The now-dead and dreaded strongman of Syrian intelligence, Rustom Ghazaleh, who ruled Lebanon with an iron fist, was a Sunni, and the head of the investigative branch of the political directorate, Mahmoud al-Khattib, is from an old Damascene Sunni family

General Ramadan Mahmoud Ramadan, commander of the Thirty-Fifth Special Forces Regiment, which is tasked with the protection of western Damascus, is another high-ranking Sunni, as is Brigadier General Jihad Mohamed Sultan, the commander of the Sixty-Fifth Brigade that guards Latakia."

AND this is a biggie....

The Syrian Arab Army is also the only Arab army with multiple Christians serving as generals. The most famous of these was Daoud Rajha, the Greek Orthodox army chief of staff.

The two most influential Lebanese Christian leaders, now on the verge of becoming the next president of Lebanon, are Michel Aoun and Suleiman Franjieh, who are also allies of the Syrian Arab Army and President Assad. Deir al-Zour is an entirely Sunni city which has held out against ISIS encirclement for two years—and is commanded by the Druze General Issam Zahreddine."

Russia is Syria's ally and has been for decades since the last century. Piss off with this aggression shit. Learn your history before you pop off.

Russian/Iranian/Turkish combined don't have a defense budget even close to ours.

They could crushed in a day in a real war.

The MB are an entity unto themselves. Not just Egypt's MB or "fill in the blank" MB. And Egypt endured a nightmare under them.

Seriously, why on earth would anyone in the west once they understood the politics of the region want to put the Syrian people under Sharia? That's fucking nuts.

sure sure------ it was Egypt's MB. Everything will be fine now that
hero Assad is back complete with all that Saddam bequeathed him.
MB? wat happened to the ISIS libel?

Bullshit.

 

[Shrimpbox]

It is hard to listen to all these talking heads and then think crisply because I cant believe how illogical these people are.

We are bringing 2000 troops home during the holiday, and this is a bad thing.

We are getting a minuscule force which is on an island surrounded by bad people on all sides fron harms way, and this is a bad thing? Let’s say this force had been attacked and many Americans killed, what would the press say then.

Besides squashing isis, can anyone name our successes in the Middle East? Have we permanently solved any problems? Can we ever solve Middle East problems?

We don’t need the oil, thanks to trump, so why are we there?

Has anyone forgotten we have lots of missiles that can hit isis anywhere?

Have the policies of the past been worth our loss of blood and treasure?

Will someone please tell me exactly when we can withdraw from the Middle East, if ever?

People have lost the ability to think in a straight line.

I understand your logic ----but it is a bit shallow. Of course it is a
good idea to REMOVE our kids from MOST of Syria or ALL of Syria.
They are not accomplishing anything there and they are in danger ---AND Syria is likely, because of the presence of really aggressive and
evil pigs there----LIKELY TO SOON BECOME AN ARENA OF WAR.
Control of Syria by shit like Russia and Iran and the ALAWITE BAATHIST PIG--Bashar--------is a looming nitemare. Good to take
the kids out so long as there is a PLAN as to how to country the shit
which you do not seem to want to address

I didn’t understand your last sentence Rosie.

Overdue, A moment of silence for Bill Kristol, first his warmonger rag folds, then disengagement in a foreign land.

He and George Will are probably starting a bromance right now in their retirement home. Merry Christmas boys.

Overdue, A moment of silence for Bill Kristol, first his warmonger rag folds, then disengagement in a foreign land.

Funny, and true, but let's be honest here, people the likes of you were in full support of people like Bill Kristol for decades.

There's something to be said about that.
