What do you mean we can't just bomb people?
I think this is a good point to expose the neocons. They want to imagine that Assad is Sadam
They are trying to make Assad seem unbelievably evil, but there is no evidence. We know about how evil Hussein was (look up his public 1979 purge).
They are over extended and this is a uge moment for us to hit them.
Doubt there'll be anything major
My only worry is that Trump and Macron have promised severe action.
Im not saying Trump is cucking or anything, but there are more interests at work than just Trump
>politicians
>promised
There aren't really, he's the commander in chief
I mean political forces and deep state forces that are maneuvering to tie his hands
We've already seen situations where Trump has had to yield because his hands were tied (Omnibus bill)
Yeah but military action is entirely within the purview of the President whereas budgets aren't
I understand that, but nothing happens in a vacuum
Normies are waking up
Honestly the US alliance with Israel is absurd, it basically makes it extremely difficult for Islamic countries to make deals with the US
It hasn't hindered the Saudis 🙃
It actually has
They have to play a balancing act with their own populace
We need someone who isn't explicitly anti Israel to take power who will use an excuse to cut aid to Israel. They will retaliate in an obscene way, which would give us an excuse to register AIPAC as a foreign lobbying firm
If the US weren't aligned with a weak nation of 15 million Jews then they'd have been able to turn Saudi into the regional hegemon decades ago
And hopefully Israel would continue to escalate until we could end the alliance
It's not even 15 million Jews. Its 6 million joos and a few million muslims
We need a justification for terminating the alliance with Israel. Kicking them out of an alliance will irreparably harm our reputation.
If we get a Rand Paul style guy in charge who wants to shrink the foreign aid budget, and Israel throws a very public kvetching over lowering their aid, we would be able to raise awareness. If they did something stupid like fake a terror attack by mulsims on us in order to make us join them in a war, that would be reason enough to terminate an alliance
Tbh the Trump admin is already taking the most practical steps to distance the US from Israeli foreign policy, they've allowed the Russians to build naval bases in Egypt and Syria, making any large scale intervention in Syria impractical
Like how would 100,000 US troops get there if the sea route is cut off and the strait of Hormuz cut off, they'd have to land in Europe and travel through Turkey, invading from the North, gibing the Russians weeks if not months notice of a troop buildup
good point
Remembering of course that Romania and Bulgaria's PM are pro Russian,so the Russians could easily draw a Rubicon in the Balkans and prevent a US army from even getting to Turkey without starting a war in Europe, there's literally no way to hide that you're moving an army when everyone has a camera phone
watching nikki haley at the un
shes such a neocon lol
The option to invade from the south would mean a buildup in either Iraq or Jordan, with the former country being essentially on the brink of becoming an Iranian proxy
i hate her
She doesn't look Indian
waaaaa dead children
waaaaa do something
as long as russia is stays there were good maybe small strikes but thats about it
P much
Only danger is the US creates a Kurdistan
Even then
That would give the Trump/Macron axis a golden opportunity to wreck NATO by messing with Turkey
