While what happened to those people in Syria is tragic, it is not our fight and never has been. Nowhere in the Constitution does it say our military is to be used as the guardian of the planet and a lot of people in this country are getting sick of it. Aside from Afghanistan, we haven't fought one war in the defense of our nation since WWII. Every other war we have entered into has been a choice to fight someone else's and countless lives have been lost over the years.
Furthermore, we have been interfering in the affairs of the Middle East for over 70 years and all we've done is make things worse. We are responsible for the rise of Khomeini in Iran. We are responsible for the existence of ISIS in Iraq and we will be responsible for which ever radical Muslim extremist takes over Syria if we depose Assad. These people have been slaughtering each other for 5,000 years and we aren't going to change it. All we have had done is made ourselves a terrorist target and watched our civil liberties and Constitutional rights erode as a result.
There you go again, you try to think about Syria all you come up with is that you don't like Trump. Maybe thinking just isn't for you. You might try hockey.In other words when you tried to think about Syria all you came up with is that you don't like President Trump. Perhaps thinking just isn't your thing.
no, I did think about it. There's nothing there that is worth one American life.
and Trump doesn't know what he's doing even if there were.

We don't belong there and Assad didn't do it. Trump was backing off taking Assad out and the "rebels" did it to get us committed again. Well that and the Banksters want war.
Wrong.
The military has satellite and local radar coverage showing the flight path of the planes that delivered the Sarin Gas. They show the takeoff from the targeted airbase. It shows in detail their precise flight path to the target, where they flew away from the target then circled back to deliver a second load of bombs onto the victims, the rescue workers and the hospital where victims were taken. They have coordinating data showing the precise times the bombs hit the ground and witnesses testifying that the bombs were delivered by fixed wing aircraft.
Far too early for the panicked Progressives to whine about the ultimate goals of the mission.
The Iranians are inconsequential. Assad is in power only because of Russian bombing and Russian will agree to allow him to be forced out in negotiations with the US. The talks will begin next week when Tillerson in in Moscow.There you go again, you try to think about Syria all you come up with is that you don't like Trump. Maybe thinking just isn't for you.

Trump is the guy who just pissed away $100,000,000.00 in hardware for no good reason...
I think you are the one who is confused. A couple of weeks ago, Trump and Tillerson were saying Assad was going to get to stay... now they are saying he has to go, but they haven't explained to us how that's going to happen, exactly, given the Russians and Iranians are insisting he stays.
The Iranians are inconsequential. Assad is in power only because of Russian bombing and Russian will agree to allow him to be forced out in negotiations with the US. The talks will begin next week when Tillerson in in Moscow.
It is important to remember that if Obama had not been just a blowhard and had backed up his demand that Assad must go with action, Russia would not be in Syria now. But when Obama did nothing, Putin understood he faced no risk from the US if he moved into Syria. The Syrian chemical attack, probably with Russia's approval, showed that Assad and Putin believed they could cross any red line with impunity, but they learned Thursday they couldn't.
The Russians are humiliated by the US attack, and they understand they will face more humiliations if they continue to back Assad. Next week when Tillerson goes to Moscow he will begin talks on how Putin can end his support of Assad without losing face.
lol You see, once again, you try to think about Syria but all you can come up with is how much you dislike President Trump. Seriously, consider hockey.The Iranians are inconsequential.

Awwww.. you think Tillerson is actually consequential...
Keep in mind that this is the same Tillerson who said a couple of weeks ago that we accept that Assad is going to stay. Until Jared reminded him who was really in charge.

Not sure how that proved they couldn't cross a red line. Firing 59 Cruise missiles and only killing 7 guys is kind of inconsequential. the thing is, we couldn't send in fighters because we'd probably lose some of them, due to the fact that Assad has state of the art air defenses thanks to the Russians.
The Russians are humiliated by the US attack, and they understand they will face more humiliations if they continue to back Assad. Next week when Tillerson goes to Moscow he will begin talks on how Putin can end his support of Assad without losing face.
More likely, Putin will show Tillerson pictures he has of hookers peeing on Trump, and that'll shut him up pretty fast!

Really, hockey. It's clearly the sport for you because you don't have to be afraid of brain damage.lol You see, once again, you try to think about Syria but all you can come up with is how much you dislike President Trump. Seriously, consider hockey.
I have thought about Syria. I thought it was a terrible idea to get involved when Obama was involved, and it's a worse idea with Cheeto Jesus in charge, because he's fucking incompetent.
But if Trump wants to get spanked over Syria, you can enjoy the pain

your concession of the points you couldn't refute are duly noted, but I frankly don't need to see a bunch of people die so Trump supporters can feel better about their guy.
lol Once again, you can't think about anything but President Trump.
Hockey.lol Once again, you can't think about anything but President Trump.
Not my President. Not My Circus. Not my Monkeys.
Then stay in Dr Whooville and embrace your retarded Sharia law.lol Once again, you can't think about anything but President Trump.

The American attack against Syria was an act of political desperation on the part of a failing administration – reckless, unwarranted, and likely illegal, having nothing to do with 'morality.'That depends on whether you believe that morality is restricted to those who immediately effect you. I do understand your point though. I am conflicted.While what happened to those people in Syria is tragic, it is not our fight and never has been.

even if there was a good reason to get involved in Syria's five way civil war, (there isn't), I wouldn't trust Cheeto Jesus to lead that effort.
Hockey.
