Since a review of your posts show that you are an unabashed Russian supporter, I imagine that I can figure out the gist.
I don't care what you imagine. I support Russia in Syria because Russia fights ISIS for real. US is helping ISIS to destabilize ME even more. Only stupid and brainwashed people can see that.

Yes, I can do that but you don't. And this is because you are heavily brainwashed by anti-russian propaganda, by the western fake news. Your view has been formed by lies, misinterpretations and fake infos. And the saddest thing is that you are not ready to open your eyes. So, keep living in your upside down world.

I agree completely. I just don't feel that Syria is a good enough reason to risk such a fight.

Good points. I don't believe Russia wants a shooting war with the US either but I wouldn't put all my eggs in that basket.

Plan for the worse and hope for the best.

During the campaign Trump boasted about his respect for Putin and how he could mend our relationship. Russia has been buzzing our military and pushing our fractured relationship since Trump has been in office.

Syria is a disaster on so many levels and the innocent people are caught in the middle. All this is doing is creating a new generation of terrorists if this can't get resolved in some way.

Errr..OK..and you know..because I disagree with you? Perhaps..I see quite clearly--and that is your perceived threat?

What I find is telling..is that, absent the rhetoric, you got nothing.

I wonder if Captain Jeff Davis is now Corporal Jeff Davis

It is obvious any military will defend themselves when attacked, but I wonder if that Captain was authorized to speak publicly about anything.

Anything we do over there is offensive. Anything anyone else does is defensive. We have NO business being there at all.
