Trump says that his opinion on Assad has now changed! Absolutely horrible chemical attack that we saw only days ago where dozens of innocent civilians were murdered and many others injured. Very early this (UK) morning, 59 tomahawk missiles were fired at the exact airbase that carried out the attack, disabling their ability to deliver chemical weapons efficiently and killing at least 7.
Read more for the major details. But man, an awesome development imo.

Putin right, Trump wrong.
Trump has been wrong every day he has been in office. The amount of disturbance he has caused not only for the world but for the Citizens of America.
No one is safe anymore.
A bit OTT.Quote:

Wouldn't you?
Obama was that close to doing it years ago - 2012.Quote:

I don't think it is right to destabilise the only vaguely rational force (Assad) that holds Syria together and place the area in the hands of Islamists, no. More broadly, the existence of Syria or non-existence of it as a state matters to British interests... how?Quote:

I definitely do not think it is OTT. (I'm assuming OTT means,"over the top", as I do not usually use acronyms)Quote:

Having people escape from those areas have been happening even before it's been recorded, recognized and reported by the news.
Syria and Libya were very stable states (naturally due to them being iron fisted dictatorships) prior to Obama's meddling in the region and supplying weapons to "rebel fighters" aka Islamic terrorists. So yes, the increase of terrorists/refugees and rapists into European nations is a direct cause of Obama's destabilisation of both Libya and Syria - especially Libya which had sea patrols along her coast in co-operation with European nations like Italy but is now a failed state and has none of that.Quote:

That's what you really mean isn't it.
It irks me when people use the bad foreign policy of US Presidents to slate/support one over another because most of the time they're not actually criticising the foreign policy itself but using it in orders to criticise or support their preferred/disliked President.
To begin off: I am Canadian, so the presidency really doesn't bother me on a personal level but it does effect me on a national level. And as far as saying that Obama has single handedly caused the outbreaks in the Middle East is bogus. You've got to have more years supplying to those countries.Quote:

So before you start attacking me as an individual, remember that I am not from the US. My views on Trump is based upon what has been happening since he has been in office.
We, in Canada, are having an increase of refugees come into our country not just from Syria but also those from Mexico, and the states as well. But you don't see me calling them terrorists and rapists.
You based your view on these people on one or two events... Or what you have heard from the news.
What do you not like so far?Quote:
