france and uk w/ the usa, saucassion, scaly, dro, and other britbongs are also complicit


Germany(Merkel) said no.

I'm wondering if Trump cultists are understanding that if Marine Le Pen was elected the leader of France, they wouldn't have joined us.

What area of foreign policy where Obama was right and I was wrong was putting boots on the ground in Syria. I am now glad that Obama did not do it and I hope Trump does not do it.

There are plenty things that we could do to help that won't get our boys and girls decapitated.

just said "US does not support an indefinite presence in syria" and it sounds like its just another round of airstrikes
also, they both (trump & obama) DID put boots on the ground in syria. we have people there right now. That's how we wound up killing those 200 russian fighters defending an oil field, they put up the US flag and dropped artillery and airstrikes on them

Are those soldiers or mercenaries though?

Contractors don't count.

The irony of scolding Russia and Iran meanwhile supporting Saudi Arabia and what they've been doing in Yemen.


False equivalence. Whataboutism. ofthevoid101

You have a point, which is that Saudi Arabia's intervention in Yemen is worthy of severe criticism, but it's just not the same situation as Assad in Syria.

I was under the impression it was the 'trainers and facilitators' thing where they put boots on the ground unofficially
