U.S. Launches Millitary Strike Against Syria (merged)

[BreatheUT]

Different kind of attack, but technically in Syria.

Where's the media outrage?

 

[Velo Vol]

And the now war loving Left hates Amash again.

We may well see in Afghanistan that it's better keeping a small number of American troops in a hot spot than abandoning it.

You volunteering for that duty?

Looks like it’s heating up.

I’m glad Biden has returned peace and stability to the region

Fleas love to bite at a dog's jewels so they can play victim with the dog scratches.

That being said keep you jewels out of reach and there's no need to scratch.

Now we know how Rome felt.

Nope. But if you believe militant Islam is a thing that must be militarily confronted, there's one of the hot spots. Or it will be again, if abandoned. The Taliban is already taking over.

So why is the reporting on these strikes and retaliations 100% different than when we struck Soleimani?

 

[Orangeburst]

Guess I should be surprised, but am not with libs defending Pax Americana. We have become a warmonging nation bleeding blood and treaure all over the world, while our deficts balloon and citizenry unrest. Yep, sounds like the fall of Roman Empire to me.

Confronted does not require occupation in a place that does not want us occupying it.

I'm all about going in, kicking them in the balls in their front yard and heading back home. No reason for getting involved in a perpetual war that's been going on long before we arrived.

20 freking years of nation building. We are lucky Obama screwed up and Egypt did not hit the abyss. Syria just another quagmire.

Because Biden didn't send a mean Tweet afterwards.

 

[headhunter15]

The media: “Joe Biden is bringing freedom and strength to the Middle East!”

The same media: “Donald Trump is starting WW3!”

Who? Oh, you mean the “austere religious scholar”

If I can fly gunships I'd go back. My wife wouldn't like it too much, but I'd love to use that .50 cal and the Howitzer on some Taliban ass....

 

[Matt2496]

I bet the lefties who voted no when the poll was available would change their vote to yes now that their guy is doing it.

 

[OrangeTsar]

Biden would have to resign from the Democrat Presidential Club if he didn’t bomb SOMEBODY in his first year you know. He didn’t have a choice

You would be better served fighting the terrorists and Marxists here at home instead of going halfway around the globe.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Turkey... our NATO ally...

Unfortunately with the way the military is being transformed and purged of conservative elements, the "terrorists" won't be who you think they are.

Better for who? The people in charge of our nation? Sure. The MIC, sure. Whoever we propped up over there, sure.

But we have yet to bring any type of peace to say it helped the people from what it was before we were there.
