Anyone notice that Trump seems to have ordered an invasion of Syria?

We now have American combatants on the ground there. Syria didn't invite us, so that's an invasion.

I'm not seeing anything from the right or the left on this.

What the heck?

Perhaps he is taking over from his Russian comrades,,,,

There were already 4-500 there. he's sending more
They have been in Syria for years!

?.. what's the surprise here. He said from day one he was going to wipe I.S.I.S. off the map.

He hired a proven general to do it.. all known facts. And now it is starting.

Where do you think the majority of I.S.I.S terrorist are... Syria.

So he is backing up his words.. and he sent MORE troops in ( they were already there). But these are not advisors.. they are Marines. And they are not there to advise.. they are there to fight.

And that's Marines.. not American combatants.. ( a phrase I am sure you would not say to a actual U.S. Marine)

you see, this is called action as opposed to the 8 years of after the attack crying episodes we got from Obama.

I wonder if he has heard of Aleppo ?

Maybe I am missing something but the media didn't ignore this. I have seen it everywhere (including social media)

But, Obama actually started the plan for this before he left office and passed the plans to Trump. The Trump administration felt there were too many holes in Obama's plan. This isn't anything new. Not sure why the surprise. The media is all over anything Trump does. He sneezes funny...BAM it's in the news.

ISIS is not a country or a nation. It is an organization.
The occupation is not an invasion of Syria it is an attempt to assist in removing the threat of an organization that is hostile to world order.

There are mechanical snakes in a town. From that town they build more mechanical snakes that they send out to other towns to kill everyone that does not help them build more mechanical snakes.

You see this happening and decide to go to that town and stop the mechanical snakes from building more mechanical snakes. Your intention is not to kill the people that live in the town but some of them will protect those mechanical snakes to the death.

Since those mechanical snakes are killing people from other towns the threat is real and must be dealt with whether the original town asks for help or not. Some of the town's people and infrastructure that support the mechanical snakes and their production will be lost. If the goal is attained and there are no more mechanical snakes threatening other towns the sacrifice is justified for the benefit of all the other towns.

not sure myself ... heard they where going to do it US boots on the ground... and then I heard was not authorized by Syria... not sure why
thought Russia and Syria had it under control ... we have wanted the leader out for sometime now ... but Russia is their allies and they did not want the leader out ... so I don't get it either...

your right.. it was actually put into place back in Oct.. by Obama.

Some folks just can't wait to sling.. but they gotta get the facts straight first.. or at least try to.

would be nice..

But you won't here much about this anymore.. cause this is one of those " oh.. yeah.. well.. lets just let this one go away threads.

American combatants..Lol easy to say that phase.. when they are not staring right back at you.

hhhhmmmm u s backs syrian rebel forces russia backs syian govt it sounds like trump is a putin pawn again NOT thats why its still russian hacking still being the primary story or the wiretapping

us and russia fighting opposite sides in the same country will escalate
even if they say they are after isis you could probably win a bet that american forces will accidentally hit some govt interests over there

trump sure looks like a puppet ---- you keep your friends close and your enemies closer

Actually, he is preparing to invade North Korea and frankly it gives me a stiffy. If they are going to harm the US, F' them!

Exactly, President Trump isn't trying to remove Assad or the Government of Syria. He is simply targeting ISIS or whatever the hell they call themselves now.
