I am for Trump too, but Trump campaigned on America first and America not being the world’s policeman. Syria does not represent any American interests.

He also said peace through strength.

"Syria does not represent any American interests."

I disagree. ISIS is in Iraq and Syria. ISIS's headquarters is in Raqqa which is in Syria. One of ISIS's many names is ISIL with the L standing for the Levant. Syria is part of the ancient term for the area of Levant. The civil war combined with Obama's idiot complicities in overthrowing Qadaffi in Libya is causing the refugee crisis currently going on in Europe. I have heard many times that this is the most refugees in the world since WWII, I believe it.

Last but not least, this civil war is creating and inspiring Jihadi crazies all over the world including here in America. Any lawless state like Syria, Somalia and to a lesser extent now Afghanistan is where the Al Qada's of the world will find a home to plot their terrorism against the United States. I don't think Assad can ever stop that civil war. I'm hoping that Russia comes to this conclusion. There are a lot of these factions that will never put their arms down as long as he's in power. We don't have to go in there with boots on the ground. We have to work with Russia to have Assad step down, let Russia replace him with their hand picked successor strong man that would be agreeable to all the factions. Then we can (with our allies in the region) work on wiping out the rest of ISIS in Syria and Al Nusra.

It would be nice if the next strong man does not support Hamas, but that might be too much to ask for....

No American interest other than halting the massive refugee crisis.
