Dozens of Russians killed by U.S. air strike in Syria

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

I'm neither in favor of Assad nor am I unaware of the various islamist groups active in Syria beyond ISIS, but bombing a foreign country without the consent of recognized government is a violation of international law. The only exception would be direct attack on another country, that has the right to defend itsself.

The murderous Assad family isn't what one would call a recognized government in the sense it was meant.  Just like the Crazy Fat Kid's government.

It doesn't work this way.

For your interest, I support the Assad government because I believe their the lesser of two evils. The Syrian Rebels are a bunch of Whabbi extremists, and if they overthrow Assad they'll kill every Christian and Shiite Muslim in Syria. It's a shame that America and Israel are backing Sunni Terrorist over a Secular, Democraticly-elected government (Syria had a multi-party Election in 2014 that Assad won with almost 90% of the vote). If I was President I'd pull all US troops out of the Middle East (and East Asia and Europe), and start spending that money on helping our Nations poor, instead of dropping bombs on Third-world countries where we aren't even on the right side of the conflict.

LMFAO, this is pure gold. Just pure gold.

How did I miss that? That's some real quality right there. 25 karat.

I've also heard that Assad plays with his kids, so he's not all bad:

Kurds are Wahabi extremists.

You heard it here first.

Obviously Kurds are not fighting Assad regime nowhere and they had only some skirmishes with Assad govt forces. So, your statement is nonsense. And of course, you didn't contradict any part of the above written post cause you can't, it's the truth.

It's great question what US is still doing in Syria when ISIS is gone. And you'll find the answer when you realize why US was in Syria in the first place. Hint: it's not to fight ISIS.

Hillary stole the nomination, knowing she couldn't win it fair and square, but go on, guys, try to deflect by smearing fairly elected Assad

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

Why the hell are we still in Syria if ISIS is depleted?

Follow the money.  Guarantee we'll still be there in a hundred years.

Yep. Oil and more importantly pipeline routes to the Med and Europe.

Also in a century that all may be irrelevant, and there may be nothing to replace it, in which case we'd leave. Not that I expect us to last that long.

So much for Trump being a "Russian Mole" LOL. If Democrats were smart they'd stop the dumb Russia Conspiracy, because all it's doing is making their party look like sore losers and providing fuel for Neocons in the White House to start a war with Russia (or its allies Syria and Iran).

Trump's control of the military is limited to whining about  parades and demanding war cimes to help him feel better about the size of his 'button'. That US forces in Syria are escalating outside his control is just one more entry on the list of why he's an awful president,  no some sort of vindication.

He has delegated much of that control the local generals.

He has delegated much of his control on basically everything.

The delegating of military strikes and certain operations has worked.

Obviously not now.

You're welcome to mourn the loss of mercenaries.......I'll pass.

That's not the point. The point is that huge decisions are being made and no one knows what is going on. Maybe its part of a "secret plan" or "covfefe", but Occam's razor doesn't cut that way.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

These weren't Russian soldiers. They were a Russian PMC hired by Assad who were trying to slaughter Kurdish forces.

So basically, who care.
