Good. Bomb every last one of them.
Strange world to be cheering Assad and Putin...but go Pootie Poot!
imam obama is not pleased.
We the people want to see the destruction of ISIS. Our WH however sees ISIS as a key to overthrowing the Syrian government. This is so crazy
He will have a world class hissy fit..
He does seem a bit more thin skinned as of late.
Hey Bashar! Watch out for that Red Line!
He will hurl more Anti American invective and throw down the race card and/or the muz card..
Imagine Carter militarily helping the Ayatullah Khomeni:
Thats the equivalent of what we`re livin through right now.
Guaranteed
Assad’s boots on the ground can create facts on the ground. I hope Putin will give him all the air support he can dream of plus enough Spetsnaz to keep his troops loyal and on task. A critical mass of military force can give Assad more territory, which gives him more resources and an appearance of momentum. As that point, most the opposition will evaporate. I’m cheering for Putin and against the evil of ISIS and in our White House.
