USA Strikes Syria

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Getting the US involved in another war. One which will be much harder for the next admin to extract us from. In other words the bidding of the MIC....

How are we involved any more than we already were?

 

[Concerned American]

Competence? WTF are you talking about? I asked a simple question about relevance, and you clutched up!

We signed an agreement to protect Ukraine from invasion in exchange for their giving up their nukes. It was in all the papers. You didn't know?

I know this. The US was not the only country that signed that agreement. Russia signed it as well. The agreement has been broken. We have no obligation to that failed corrupt state. You didn't know? In exchange, the U.S., the U.K. and Russia would guarantee Ukraine's security in a 1994 agreement known as the Budapest Memorandum.

 

[Concerned American]

Which extremist groups are in Korea and Vietnam?

At the time, the NVA was an extremist group by the strict definition. Vietnam was an adventure that accomplished nothing other than the unnecessary deaths of 58K Americans. Korea did not accomplish anything other than create two states instead of one.
You've got pablum running down your chin, charlatan.

US strikes dozens of ISIS camps and operatives in Syria amid Assad's downfall
The US military struck 75 ISIS targets in Syria as Assad's government fell

I'm sorry, I realize ISIS are not very nice guys, etc., but just what is my country doing killing people half way around the world?
Last I checked, no one from ISIS has ever bothered me here.
Last I checked, there is no shortage of Baklava or Hummus here.
So just what is my strategic interest there? And who died and gave the USA authority to attack this country if they are not bothering us?
Any just why is Biden doing this now when he leaves office in a few weeks?

A little late. The US has had troops in Syria since 2014. There are still 900 troops there. US intervention in the Syrian civil war - Wikipedia
Educate yourself.

I stand corrected.

Did Ukraine break the agreement? Until then, it is not broken. Russia broke it, and the war is the result. Please put on your thinking cap. You are simply wrong. Nobody takes any real pleasure of showing you up. You normally are a reasonable kind of guy.

Whoever is running the show is obviously trying to fuck things up so badly before they dump everything in Trump's lap.

ISIS has been a problem here.

Because Assad leaving creates a power void in Syria that Biden doesn’t want ISIS to fill

Biden doesn't know what he wants. He's done. Dude can't even walk to a podium.
Most likely his handlers want to hand Trump another another mess to clean up.

Would you like to make a bet on how many of those roughly 2 million gotaways we've inherited since FY2021, have ties to ISIS or are ISIS operatives?

Seems to me like one would be too many.

The NVA was the North Vietnamese Army. That was not an extremist group! Did you ever actually study other than Googling a topic?

Korea was already two states! I don't think you ever took a history class in school!

Better pablum on my chin than shit running out of your ears!

Saving South Korea was not a mistake. The Only reason there is a North Korea is politicians telling Generals how to fight.

While rveryone is watching and fighting over Trump Cabinet picks Syria and Georgia have been brewing....
We are going to be involved until Trump takes office.
The main reason?

Little discussed report came out the other day as a result of an investigation....which showed how Biden personally has money stashed in Georgia banks as well as Syrian banks.
Wonder where that money came from?

Did Ukraine break the agreement? Until then, it is not broken. Russia broke it, and the war is the result.

Russia is a primary signatory to the agreement, moron. Do you know what contradiction is? You contradicted yourself in the third sentence above. The agreement has been broken since Obama allowed Russia to unilaterally annex Crimea. The agreement was null and void at that point. We don't owe that corrupt, parasitic country anything.

Nobody takes any real pleasure of showing you up.

You certainly haven't been successful. Sorry your ego has taken a beating.

 

[Couchpotato]

How are we involved any more than we already were?

So the "rebels" aka an Al Qaeda faction. Has been trying to overthrow this government for the last 14ish years. Do you believe they all of a sudden became Delta force and ran rough shod over the entire country? Yeah, me neither. So, we were involved in overthrowing the Government. We are now sending funding a weapons and aid to this group. While Assad was a bad guy, he was a hometown bad guy. Small time. He kept his bad guy shit local. Al Qaeda has the bad habit of exporting their bad guy shit. So when this all goes sideways which it inevitably will because it ALWAYS does, we will either have to deal with whatever bullshit they are pulling, or we will have to ouster them and get into another nation building debacle. Either way this was fucking stupid. Beyond all that. WTF are we getting involved in this to begin with? Since losing the election Biden escalated the war in Ukraine and overthrown a Government in Syria backing an Al Qaeda group to take it's place.... Solid.

News to me.
Probably shouldn't be letting them in then through a wide open border.

That is exactly my point. There was no intention of winning in Korea or Vietnam. I agree that in both cases the US should have cleaned up those conflicts if they were going to get involved. I don't believe in half stepping.

The border is wide open for the most part.
