    If you will pardon me for asking, but where are your links to back up what you claim?

    This sounds like it is straight up Obama propaganda.

    I believe Assad wants to recover the entire country even if ISIS objects. And you know they would since they destroyed precious relics of Syria's historical past.

    I personally don't support Assad but do respect the public vote that kept him in office.

    While there is no doubt malcontents there, and since you and I are malcontents when it comes to Obama, still Obama runs the show legally. We hate it, but he still will be there till the new president is sworn in.

    Some hated Bush took out Saddam yet they want to take out Assad.

    Who has read the actual history of Assad?

    I don't think that the dictator would still be in power today if an "honest & true" vote of the people were possible.

    Personally, in his case, I believe he planned for democracy but was somehow thwarted.

    Where is the prince when we need him. LMAO

    I no longer use AOL and perhaps he posts there. And AOL sucks.

    Whatever his original intent, he lost his soul to the dark side....and the world's respect when he began committing atrocities against his own people.

    I wonder, given that our media is left wing, just how much we can trust them to be honest on things about the ME?

    Can you come up with a link for that?
    ISIS/Islamic terrorism is a bigger threat to both countries.

    We must always be distrustful of the MSM....we've learned that the hard way....but instances of war crimes by the Assad regime are pretty difficult to put a positive spin on in any case.

    Assad fights ISIS. The opinion of an american aboir foreign politics is pretty much worthless since you couldn't even find syria on a map. Excuse me when i dont take you serious.

    Are you out of your mind. The police were being set on fire and being beaten by the Maidan thugs because they had order from Yanukovich not to respond. Oh that's right, those were the videos the MSM wouldn't let you see.

    Later on though when the police had permission to attack the protesters, those videos were shown all over the MSM news.

    Stop lying! It's been proven that Syria didn't have the gas that was used. It was a false flag attack by Turkey and Saudi Arabia to get the US to bomb Damascus. When London received the proof from the labs, they panicked and told Obama not to bomb. That Obama still has the audacity to lie about it to the American people shows you just what kind of a criminal he is and his whole regime.

    Let me turn the question around for the Russian trolls.

    What is a bigger threat? United States/NATO or ISIS/Wahhabism?

    Didn't America get prosecuted and convicted at the ICJ for numerous violations of Nicaraguan sovereignty? So spare us the outrage. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicaragua_v._United_States
    You're both as bad as each other-but I suggest America is ahead of the race when it comes to sticking its nose in where it doesn't belong.

    Not at all, I'm simply a realist who doesn't wear rose-tinted spectacles. So, tell me, what is it about America that I'm supposedly envious of?
