    Wrong!

    Without Bush/Cheney destabilizing the ME with their invasion of Iraq there would have been no ISIS. Pulling out of Syria while ISIS is still operational means that US troops will be forced to go back again some time in the future. Too bad it took a "moron on the left" to explain how this works to someone allegedly in the military.

    Not threat. Attack.

    So jihadi launches some terrorist BS outside their borders, and once the hamlet they reside in, or came from, is identified, it ceases to exist.

    If innocent people live there, they have two choices. Kill the terrorists themselves, or join them in hell.

    No boots on the ground needed to drop a 1000lb JDAM, or when required, a MOAB.

    I do my best to make it better for others.. One of my favorite sayins lately has been "We are just one of 7.5 Billion Passengers on a 5 Billion Year Old Spaceship"

    There is beauty and love in the world too.. we choose to pay attention to the bad things first.. which unfortunately I feel is a good thing.. folks don't like it.

    This place is bomb!! Crown jewel of existence as we know it

    I was referring to Syria population, and the point remains that their percentage of the total population is 100% irrelevant. The only thing that matters is that there are 30 000 heavily armed terrorists, and it is a big number. They will regroup, and they will declare victory over US, and they will get more recruits, and they will kill Americans.

    Bush and Cheney are water under the bridge. Now we have what we have and have to deal with it. Surrendering the ground back to ISIS is the worst thing we can do.

    I follow the same philosophy. But there is ugliness in the world. It's the nature of the human species.

    The evolution of mankind has recorded many groups and cultures that have disappeared as a result of war and/or assimilation. I don't think anyone has the power to change that natural progression.

    So, you would bomb a Taliban-controlled Afghanistan? What is they're operating out of Russia?

    Invading Afghanistan to drive out Al Qaeda and the Taliban government that supported them was a good decision. Staying beyond that was a terrible decision.

    I don't give a damn where they are operating from. Ending existence, wherever they have holed up, would be the result.

    I not able to connect to, nor appreciate, the level of intellectual disconnect that drives Hate Trumper's to the levels of insanity and obsession that they engage in.

    No. Just the insects hiding in it. Doesn't require a B2 bomber to take care of business.

    My level is certainly not that which I described. I can't imagine being that empty.

    What's the problem? Russia has murdered people walking down the street in other countries.

    upload_2018-12-26_15-47-23.png

    majority of deaths occurred in the harboring countries (aka killed their own kind)

    upload_2018-12-26_15-49-11.png

    if concerned about terrorism, play the percentages and avoid the listed countries ;)

    i don't play victimology, it's a game for the weak & meek ... far more have been killed/raped by homegrown psychopaths, yet the left libs refuse to execute them, heck they won't even jail them long term... they're given a life sentence & usually get out after 5-7 years for 'good' behaviour... libs are a confused bunch of 'blind faithers'... the odds of being killed by isis types are nill if you avoid their 'homelands'... i, for one, am not stupid enough to travel to those sh*tholes...
