That’s defeatist talk. The welfare of the Syrian people must not be our primary interest. Our primary interest is the national security of the United States, followed by that of our ally Israel. Destruction of the Assad regime and expulsion of Russian and Iranian forces, which would weaken the strategic position of both those nations, is the best thing for us and for Israel.

Yup. More defeatism from the Wormtongues at the Wall Street Journal-- somebody over there is either being paid by the Russians or Iranians or has some business interest with either or both of them that would benefit when their masters see these words of "wisdom" being offered to the American people.

There is nothing more important than the crushing of the Russian-Iranian axis in the Middle East.

Looks like someone bought a new sock.

You are whacked. The USA has no business being inside Syria.

None.

“Destruction of the Assad regime and expulsion of Russian and Iranian forces, which would weaken the strategic position of both those nations, is the best thing for us and for Israel.”

Then why is Israel cooperating with Russia? And why do the Christians of Syria welcome Russia bombing their persecutors?

The policy you advocate - siding with jihadists against Assad - will mean more Christians martyred.

“Destruction of the Assad regime and expulsion of Russian and Iranian forces, which would weaken the strategic position of both those nations, is the best thing for us and for Israel.”

Loony tunes. Yes, lets “expel” Russia. Also known as WWIII. And then when the ISIS jihadis take over Syria, ISIS will share a border with Israel.
And you might not have noticed, but the Russians and Israelis are cooperating and having intel sharing and coordination.

For extra credit, tell me how removing Assad is in the US national interest.
