usagi Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 it's not the first time the US has launched strikes in Syria, though (right? iirc). just under Dumbo here, who's done a sudden about-face on his supposedly isolationist policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublename Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 (edited) It's the first directly against the Assad regime, but the U.S. and allies started in 2014. Edited April 7, 2017 by doublename Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Mughnus Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Yeah, my understanding is this is the first time they have directly struck Assad. I think the implications are far reaching compared to a proxy war through the rebels.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Mughnus Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 what do u guys think? is this a game changer, or will this be merely more cold war / rebel games? I feel like attacking a direct Russian ally might be a game changer. But I'm not into politics so I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koolkeyZ865 Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 (edited) Looks like the powers that be really want the Iraq war all over again. How long until the invasion of Syria and Iran?

peace 7 Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 When I lived in Egypt, I smoked hash with a Syrian refugee, and we talked about life. I said the hash was good, and he looked at me with a smile and said, "It's not the hash- it's who you smoke with." And we had a beautiful human moment; shortly after a super bright light was in the sky, and we thought we were gonna get abducted by aliens for a sec. But anyway... what the fuck is anyone doing with all this violence and retarded shit. World peace, man..... C'mon. But considering most people can't not get mad for one year straight, it is kind of hard to expect eternal peace. BUUUUUT we all gotta do our part. ...We all gotta do our part. *Much Love* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caze Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 If it wasn't apparent that Trump is the lapdog of big business, it is now.

caze Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 In other news, hopefully the people who voted for Trump over Clinton because they thought there was far less chance of him instigating military action are feeling pretty dumb right now, the dumb motherfuckers.
