Hopefully they don't send troops in and instigate a draft and create another Vietnam.

... I am in awe. Your first post ever that wasn't negative about President Obama.

Progress people.

First he threatened to bomb Assad, now he is going to bomb Assad's enemies? Talk about whiplash. How much arms did we give to them before we realized these weren't the good guys? Actually many of the the Republicans were hard up for Assad too, and on a much higher of level wrong than Obama. Luckily for them, no one will remember their idiotic statements because everyone concentrates on what the president does, just like Bush before him. Putin is an idiot and a villain, but with regards to Syria, he came out looking like the only sane person in this mess.

It's about damn time.

My thoughts exactly.

I'd feel greater about it if I wasn't positive we'll eventually turn on Assad afterwards. But if this is what it takes to get the outsiders out of Syria, then I'm all for it.

Just can't let this turn into another Iraq/Eqypt.

and no doubt hillary is going to bomb the next saudi funded extremist group that rises to fill the power vacuum once we have finished blowing ISIS to kingdom come.

They can just use drones. US won't lose in any war ever again. Have you seen some of their newer weapons?? They are capable of wiping ISIS in less than 2 weeks.

The Syrian War is a multi party civil war. It's not simply 2 sides. It's much more complex than you make it out to be. Even among the parties, there have been shifting alliances and coalitions. Two days ago most of the leadership of one faction that was about to switch sides were killed in an explosion, probably betrayed by someone in their group.

But to your point, you're incorrect, we didn't give anything to ISIS.

Egypt is messed up, but it's not Iraq. So that doesn't make any sense.

Also the UN says 190,000 people have already died in the Syrian war. It's already another Iraq. In fact, ISIS has spilled over into Iraq. They have erased the border and operate in both countries. This the reason for the move into Syria, we have been bombing in Iraq, but that can't defeat ISIS if they have sanctuary in the areas of Syria they control.

dont think bombing alone will be effective in terms of stopping ISIS, most likely it will make isis stronger (sunnis will be more attracted to ISIS as they feel the west is against sunni islam), but I totally support killing them. The more ISIS fighters that die in iraq and syria the less that can come home to the west and do damage in the west.

[Nanners]

thinking that dropping bombs will solve the problems posed by ISIS is like thinking that throwing rocks can solve the problem posed by a hornets nest.

I really feel bad for the innocent civilians of these countries. They deserve much better government, and better standard of living.

ISIS is an unsolvable problem.

2 solutions:
1. we all convert to sunni Islam and live by the their interpretation of the Koran
2. we use nukes to commit mass genocide.

option 1 is unacceptable

option 2 is grossly immoral and thus unacceptable.

Thousands of citizens of western nations have flocked to ISIS to fight for sunni islam. The more we kill the lower the chances they come home and do terrorist attacks here.

The desire of radical islamists to spread their religion via the blade of a sword is almost a 1000 years old

F*cking laser cannons:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Let's use ISIS to test out this thing and the railgun.

We are the Galactic Empire:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:


And they still have plenty of modern weaponry.

There are people saying that West was supporting Sirian rebel groups that later broke out and became ISIS. The funding came from the Gulf states, and US and British agencies were in between this.

From transcript:

U.S. special forces and British special forces had been operating in Syria long before the kind of major, major civil unrest that kind of really broke out, and they had been operating in kind of supporting these groups. And it was very clearly stated by these officers at the time <...> that they quite explicitly said that this is about destabilizing the Assad regime from within. They had even explored the possibility of airstrikes on targets. But the favored policy was using these groups as a proxy force to destabilize Assad's regime.

<...>it's kind of ironic that we have the very same people now calling for boots on the ground, calling for a response, are the same people that have been very loud in their support for arming some of the most virulent of elements of these rebel groups. And even though the Obama administration, for instance, has given a lot of lip service, saying that we only want to fund, you know, the kind of moderate rebels and so on and so forth--but the Obama administration has actively coordinated the financing that has come from the Gulf states to the very types of groups that they historically have always favored, which is the most virulent jihadist al-Qaeda affiliated organizations. So there is a contradiction here in what we're being told now and the way in which policymakers have kind of created this crisis and now not taken responsibility for this crisis.
