    We could be the most famous planet in the Universe right now. Maybe they're enjoying the show.

    Peace keeping? yes, let's say how we should copy and destroy US cities that do not vote replublican first.

    Oh, yeah, that's a real peace keeping statement....but I forget,,,,you are a moderator and can say anything.

    Tell me do you care about the Syrian refugees living in camps. I just saw an interview with some of them on the news, and they say this political grand standing is not helping them at all......and that no one cares about them.

    Oh, please...like I really care if they are heartbroken or not......They are only heart broken over their right to bear arms and their wallets.
    I never kid myself about anything.

    if you mean personally ..i dont care much

    if you mean country my country is doing fairly well taking in refugees...we cant do it all though

    heres a link where you can see how much the US helps syrian refugees compared to other much smaller countries

    i even picked a cnn source because i know you might believe cnn since they are so biased towards demotards

    Syrian refugees: Which countries welcome them - CNN

    No offense but you're naive if you think US interest in Syria is because innocent people are being murdered

    If that was the case we wouldnt be providing support to the Saudis in their ongoing slaughter of innocent people in Yemen. And thats just one example.

    There are currently global sanctions against Russia and Syria, and both countries would like these sanctions to end.

    Not all of the sanctions are about the war in Syria. Some of the sanctions were placed on Russia because of their invasion of Ukraine. But that doesn't matter. The sanctions are there.

    My proposal for dealing with Syria is: the US should work to build an international consensus that none of the sanctions on Russia or Syria will be lifted until the UN Security Council refers the Syrian war to the International Criminal Court.

    The Saudis are attacking factions in Yemen because those factions are devoted to attacking and destroying Saudi Arabia.

    The US is helping the Saudis because one of those factions is devoted to attacking and destroying the US.

    And also because the Saudis are our ally.

    Right, they're our ally because they're oil rich, so the government is willing to turn the other way when their weapons kill thousands of innocent children. Not even that, actually. The US is happy to provide the weapons used for the slaughter

    Sort of how the US government doesnt actually care about the people who are dying from chemical weapons in Syria, they care about who controls the pipeline in Syria

    The EU and Russia want the oil and gas, the USA has no direct interest in it or any troops on the ground to enforce its distributions.

    There is the small matter of groups in Yemen being devoted to attacking and destroying both Saudi Arabia and the US.


    Nonsense. The US does not care at all about any pipelines in Syria, if there even are any.

    Our main interest in Syria was Islamic State, which, just like those Yemeni factions, was devoted to attacking and destroying us.

    However, we do indeed find the use of nerve gas against civilians to be morally repugnant.

    I love how we were led into a long quagmire in Iraq and we were told obvious lies to get us there, and obviously the Trumpets didnt learn their lesson because after all, their hero wouldnt lie to them! Of course its for humanitarian reasons! Just like Iraq, am I right?!?

    I also love how US foreign policy was exactly the same under Obama, Trump isnt doing anything differently in Syria, but suddenly its okay because Trump is doing it . Thats cute .

    What is happening in Yemen is also morally repugnant but the US is fine with that. Because the US government doesnt care about morals, it cares about its own interests
