Quote:2. No, this is not one of those times. In any case, this idea that Tulsi is promoting ("deal with assad") is extremely uninformed. The USA has no further ability to make ANY deals with him. We have no leverage. That's the real world, man. You can't negotiate with kumbaya and rainbows.
I don't propose deals. I just say just leave and let Russia have it. After all, doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result is one definition of insanity. Tulsi said work something out with Assad which is much better than attempting to get rid of IS and Assad. <- That can't work.

4. You don't get it. There IS no such war.
Rags-
You said "The USA is NOT arming IS; the USA is fighting and bombing IS. " IS is in parts of Syria, right? Fighting and bombing are "war" to me. We did pretty much selfsame stuff in The Vietnam WAR.
-- it's a civil war. Which we need to stay the hell out of. Just like we should of stayed out of Viernam's civil war
