Why didn't Obama think of this and make it happen?
Can't aid the Caliphate that way.

Scoff if you like, but such an argument has a lot of merit when you begin to weigh the facts.

A statement after the phone call said the two leaders agreed on the importance of strengthening joint efforts to fight the spread of Islamic State militants.
"The president requested and the King agreed to support safe zones in Syria and Yemen, as well as supporting other ideas to help the many refugees who are displaced by the ongoing conflicts," the statement said.
The Saudi Press Agency, in its readout of the call, made no specific mention of safe zones. It said the two leaders had affirmed the "depth and durability of the strategic relationship" between the two countries

I didn't have any trouble finding the news. Saudis told Trump, they will 'support' camps in Yemen and Syria. Clearly they just wanted Trump off the phone. How are they going to support camps in Yemen, when they are at war with them, and Syria who are in middle of a civil war?

It's not news. I saw it on the news, and the only news is that the Saudi said he'd support it.

There's no actual plan, like who'd pay for it, administer it, keep a no fly zone over it, etc.

In other words, nothing.

Excellent point but you know you are at odds with a great deal of investigation that went into this thread, the Trump supporters are off and running. He has done more than any president in one week!

This is huge news that the media all but forgot to mention in the midst of their hate campaign.

This arrangement to set up the safe zones took place over the weekend, the media is hardly covering it, just like his ban on lobbying.

Why is it that the left has to always attack Trump, even when he does things any reasonable person would agree is good?

Keep up the lies, it is doing well, why I see an entirely conservative house and senate in the future and it will all be to the efforts of progressives who are more interested in lying to achieve their ideal than they are attending to the people, but then... we know this already, I mean... how on earth did millions of people starve to communism if it were not for those who ignorantly and arrogantly continued the narrative!

Let them eat cake right!!!

Carry on!

With some digging you can find the back page article. Wonder why O was so opposed the the idea? Glad Trump is working toward a real solution.
