Trump takes the fight to ISIS

155mm's--Long Tom's, they used to call them--dumb bombs, I call them now. I like dumb bombs. They're cheap--compared to our Hellfire from above--and they don't discriminate--those better-than-six-inch shells can't tell a mosque from a falafel stand--I like that, too.
B-52's and B-1's in South Korea--fine with me.
Obama's the only president to spend every day at war for an entire two terms in office--remember him?--the guy who won the Nobel peace prize? How great would it be if we were fighting alongside the Russians rather than supplying their enemies? Assad ain't never done shit to me.

...except for all of the shit that were supposed to be outraged at ISIS over.

Should be a good time counting up dead civilians though. Go war!

ISIS has murdered American citizens.

The Syrian government has not murdered American citizens.

How many Syrian citizens has America killed?

More whataboutism, Grumps?

Enlighten me to the horrible massacre of Syrian civilians by militant Americans.

Looks like around 100 civilians/day, generally - not at the hands of Americans, but in the fighting itself. I'm sure that we can help by bombarding cities with artillery though. Fucking MIC never stops.

Have a Squadron of A-10s introduce their troops to what the US has in store for them... Lets' also look deeper into the interaction of our "enemies" and see who the real ones are.

You know that the Syrian government and ISIS are two different entities, right? Another thing you may not have noticed, millions of Syrians refugees have split the scene, so they shouldn't be too thick on the ground. And I agree with Trump: if we want to help Syrian refugees, it's best we do so there--set up refugee camps THERE--women and children first--they know whom to flee to and whom to flee from.

This isn't what I signed up for.

I agreed to a Russo-Americana Pax and an America 1st foreign policy. None of that is being implemented at the moment and I am not cool with that.



Not cool, if Flynn was in....



This bullshit that we are jerking off to on the home front about transgenders bathrooms and The Wall are giving the appearance of shiny bait.

BTW, Small Mouth season should be killer this year, Elk Horn was rather calm last couple years to allow for plenty of spawning and the warm weather will have them boys feistier than usual in early May.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm Diplomacy, what's that ?


Trump said Diplomacy was going to be used more often in foreign policy. So, let's see what happens. I'll have to read the Strategery, I just hope they have clear, achievable goals.

Well uh, Trump is making massive cuts in the State Departments budget, so let's see. Plus a lot of positions are still left vacant there (starting from Tillerson's deputy. So I don't know how

Anyway, I assume that here the idea is that the US military will work with other countries and have a far more realpolitik attitude towards the whole thing. For instance, in Yemen basically you have Al Qaeda now fighting alongside the US backed coalition against the Houthis (which likely will stop if the Houthis are defeated).

In Syria the situation is even more complex with 3 different sides to the fighting. Or even more sides, if you look at the situation.

What on Earth is Russo-Americana Pax you are talking about? ? ?



What did you think you would be signing up for?

What's the policy you think it would be? Bug out from the Middle East and leave it to Al Qaeda and Iran? Appease Russia for nothing? (Or getting assistance on beating Hillary or what?)

If you are so afraid of ISIS, you think then bugging out form the Middle East will be the answer? Perhaps it would be, actually. Stop being a Superpower. If you do it voluntarily, you would be the first country ever in the history of mankind to do that voluntarily.

You could be the next Canada: an important Trading partner, but otherwise who care a damn what Canadians say on the global arena.
