TRUMP: Syria chemical weapons attack crossed 'beyond a red line,' and my attitude has changed

Time will tell. President Obama did what he was suppose to do.

 

and political support? which means get Iranians and Muscovites out of "Syria"?

 

Supposed.

He was supposed to draw a line and back down? No wonder you people got your behinds handed to you.

 

What do you mean by "political support"? Like run political commercials? Put sanctions on Russia and Iran? Wasn't that done with Obama?

 

Is that why he won two terms. Lets see how long the current on lasts.

 

yeh, why do we talk about the past? if we have a situation today ? what Trump will do , REALISTICALLY ?

 

Because he doesn't have anything to talk about today.

 

lets say put pressure on them , including military one. USA/EU have simply 1000 times more power then those 2 bumish states

 

24 France gives a lot of information , right new

 

One.

Maybe he will be a Crybaby too. But I doubt it.

 

Drop the big one, see what happens.

 

You keep coming back to wanting the US to commit military. In the past that has not turned out well in the middle east. Everyone is asking what will Trump do? Why not ask what will Trudeu or Merkel do?

 

Well that's not going to happen. Syria's not worth the cost, and there is no way those countries can politically align themselves with Trump to send troops into a country uninvited. Obama maybe, but Trump? After Bush in Iraq? No way. Then there's the moral hazard of the refugees, who could then claim their status was the result of French and German actions in Syria. It just won't happen.

The choices are limited and repugnant. Let the place get worse, or hold you nose and side with Russia and Assad to eliminate ISIS. This tragic event has not changed that situation on the gound.

 

another 10 year war, I thought we did not have the money to help our own people, how much will this cost?

 

Fcuk Yeah! kill tens of thousands of innocents, that should stop Assad from killing 70 again.

Terrorists, your game is through
'cause now you have ta answer to

America, Fcuk yeah!​

 

Terrorists have already killed hundreds of thousands and caused millions of refugees.

Nuke them and be done with it. Somehow Japan survived it.

 

You misunderstand me. I am not saying those countries should align themselves with Trump. I am saying everyone agrees the use of chemical weapons is appalling. The US has long spent tons of resources and lives fighting wars in the middle east. It is time for those NATO countries that do not pay their fair share to step up and show some leadership. They can use their resources and military to stop Assad. The US can provide some intel support but the bulk of the operation can be led by them.

 

People survived many things. Plagues, wars, natural disasters. The people the died certainly did not want it and the survivors do not celebrate it. To use it as a justification to do it again is crazy.

 

How did Democrat Truman justify using nukes?

 

You know, he might just commit troops to go in. It would be a great way to distract the press, and like Bush, align the country behind him. It will all go wrong, eventually, but in the meantime he could buy himself a little admiration and it would suit his tough-guy self perception.

 

Before my time and I never studied the history to say. So you are a Democrat Truman supporter?

 

Japan was at war with us. This is a domestic Syrian civil war.

 

A: Using them would save American and Japanese lives.

 

The same reason can be used.

 

Sadly, it is a proven strategy.
