Speaking of info wars, Alex jones cried last night

**Trump betrayed him**

Yeah.

I was already off the Trump train before then.

I think his tweets for bombing Syria killed it.

I wanted to Trump to be president for the laughs

I took the nationalist viewpoint seriously for domestic affairs.

Which is more the reason why his foreign affairs really jarred my perception of him doing good for the US.

Trump foreign policy is still more consistent and very clearly defined. it is much better than the Obama-era

Absolutely.

I have no doubt that his policy is good. I do not like how mouthy he is when dealing with potential for a wider war with the potential to go nuclear.

he only reason Russia is in Syria is to avoid another Libya, which was a product of Obama foreign policy. Now Syria thinks it can get away with anything because of this. That is showing to not be the case.

Yeah.. They're acting like they have impunity. Dumbasses.

Yeah, no.

regardless of what Trump says and how he says it, his actions are usually effective and of sound judgment

the entire "chemical attack" nonsense is intelligence bull

prove it

@obrallaghan regardless of his judgement, the judgement of others that are looking for a wider war will be closer to their goals.

Nope. Burden of proof rests on the accuser. White Helmets aren't a reliable source, the footage is a comedy, there's a counterclaim by the doctors from the very same hospital

No one is above scrutiny. Not even the people I vote for.

and it's a claim by the same fucking people interested in regime change there since at least 2006

It doesn't just smell, it fucking reeks

avoiding conflict now does not mean future conflicts will be avoided. not avoiding conflict now could be future conflicts are.

it also doesn't accomplish much at all for Assad

Why do we have to spend our money if countries like the UK and France are already apt to upholding the UN.

This isn't our war.

If there was a chemical attack at all, the only one to stand a benefit are islamists looking to use USA as their muscle basically

so no. I don't believe a single fucking word of it.

Assad already has a history of using chemical weapons

And? So do the insurgents

among other things

and I'd assume that Assad would fucking use chemical weapons where it significantly benefits him

I don't think he's an idiot

If the US is required to act for other states to act on a humanitarian issue, then the US has failed.

Not with a won war, and with full russian support behind him

We cannot continue to support states that can clearly support themselves.

and of course, the moment an accusation is made, Israel does a missile strike

Assad may not have directly called for the use of chemical weapons. but he has them. he could have people in positions of power within the military that are out of control. it's entirely possible.

this couldn't be more obviously people scrambling to have an excuse

It's possible but it's unlikely

all Assad does is deny everything as US propaganda
