I'm still waiting for someone to explain how taking out Assad helps Syria at all and doesn't remove one of the main factors keeping ISIS in check inside of Syria

I love the "oh you don;t understand" posts from people that aren't able to defend their own position though

a lot of the first western info about the armenian genocide came out from German officers who were there to help coordinate with turkey in WWI and wrote back to Germany "holy loving poo poo they're killing entire villages of men women and children we need to stop this"

Better options than supporting Assad. I mean, everybody else is a foreigner fighting to subjugate Syria, hes the only one left standing whio represents Syrians

Ruthless assholes tend to make their own way in this world by being ruthless and dont really need a lot of help in doing that now do they

It says a lot about how little ppl have learned from history that the idea of which foreign turd to polish is somehow the question rather than not spend money and blood polishing turds to begin with, just endure them until all the cheap oil is gone and let them revert back to the nothing and the nowhere that they ought to be

Besides, this thread seems to adore disgusting war criminals as long as they are anti-American keep the peace fight the media's most wanted.
Americans and american foreign policy have a longstanding habit of interpreting "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" in the most childish naive way possible

If there was one pithy saying that they should be taking to heart w/r/t this mess it would be Napoleon's quote about not interrupting ur enemies when they're making mistakes

It's also a foreign policy that's pretty myopic in the long run with no attempt to connect decisions made now with horrible future blowback.

For example the US created the modern Iran by helping to overthrow a democratically elected left wing government, all because the iranian government wanted to nationalize all the oil fields.

It really is, and it never fails to amaze me that ppl who are otherwise intelligent and educated can even bring themselves to debate over what the US should do in the middle east when generations of foreign policy blunders have shown again and again that the answer is always nothing go away just dont even think about it stay out we're the king midas of poop and cant be trusted to touch a single thing

Middle east oil money owns, how else could you get a US white republican to kiss and hold hands with a arab man?

Its uh, their custom, over there, see, and *resists urge to slip tongue*

My favorite story of arab oil trash money pits is the islands in dubai where they had to IMPORT SAND TO A GODDAMN DESERT bc their sand wasnt good enough, and bc of the erosion they constantly have to keep the imported sand coming, and where the engineers didnt even bother doing water flow analysis so some of the waterways between these ultra premium real estate islands are all stank and stagnant
