“Getting rid of Assad will create an even bigger power vacuum in the Middle East.
It’s more urgent to get rid of ISIS than Assad.”

Do we actually have a strategy?
We help Iran get the bomb.
We help the Saudi’s against Assad (Iran’s ally).
We help overthrow distasteful governments with no plan for a stable successor (Libya).

Putin is a Russian nationalist and wants to control the Ukraine and Mideast oil. He seems to have a strategy. What’s ours?

Well said. The insanity of what she advocates boggles the mind. In the first place I have never seen Assad attack this country.What I see is clearly the Russians and our Nuke bob buddies, Iran killing isis. ( don't believe this crap about the free Syrian army - there were only 5 left) . I hate isis. There are currently 2 MILLION Christians in Syria. They all love Assad!! Isis wants to shoot them in the head if they are lucky or cut their throats otherwise. This is a "Holy war" according to the Rusiian Orthadox Church and I agree with that . Why would we be against Assad? It is absolutely unsubstantiated that he would or did “gas his people” That is BS!! Wake up. Even if he did ,we have no dog in that fight at all!! Isis used chlorine gas several times after that alledged incident which indicates THEY HAD IT!! Assad turned all of his chemical weapons over to the Russians long ago. How can our republicrat leaders be so screwed up (Except for Trump)?
