    Right, "you guys" need to be told another Middle East war is a bad idea. We can't possibly have come to that conclusion based on the other failed Middle East wars.

    Do you have a real point to make?

    I don't think that's an act of war. So are you saying that Trump has already gone to war with Iran and that we are at war with them right now?

    The prior administration got us balls deep into the middle east. Granted, I'd be OKAY if we pulled every US soldier out of the Middle East and let the Saud's and Israelite's fight their own battles.

    I said what I said. Why do you think we went thousands more Americans to the Mideast?

    It's a real point, I've seen over and over. Particularly during the Trump era. Notice what happens when the audience doesn't get their talking points in time...

    Did our deal with Libya grant permission to bomb civilians?

    If we're going to war with 3,000 troops we're screwed. It should be obvious that the real mission is to provide security, not going to war, but you guys do seem to fall for just about anything.

    I seem to remember you need one million to go to war with Iraq - of course you would get some from Israel and Saudi Arabia - well the Saud's will pay some poor people to die.

    Yes, that happens. It doesn't happen about THIS. Nobody wants another Middle East war. Nobody needs to be told that. Obama RAN on being anti-war. So did Trump. Because that was the mood of the country and nothing's changed.

    Completely made up and zero no evidence to support it doesn't help your argument.

    So we didn’t announce sending 3500 troops to the Mideast today?

    Where is the poll from conservatives saying they support it?

    Go ahead Mello post it since you've strapped on the super hero tights to save the day. Can't wait to see it.

    lol So there is no poll proving the original claim just as I said.

    Next time don't play the super hero if you don't have the facts to support you.

    My DEFAULT Assumption (unless I am faced with overwhelming contradictory evidence) is that Conservatives Support sending the 3,500 Troops.

    Feel free to PROVE me wrong.:flagus:

    I thought you were disputing the troop being sent. I didn’t realize your point was that this was done by some liberal cabal and not the president.
