Surprisingly, President Trump gets my support for his targeted
missile strike at an airbase in Syria last week. Assad's attack
on his own civilians with chemical weapons included children
among the fatalities, universally condemned. The U.S. airstrike
hasn't completely immobilized Assad's airstrike capability, but
it did reduce his effectiveness while sending a signal that the
USA will not idly stand by, will not permit such atrocities to
continue.
Generally, foreign intervention is a bad idea, but genocide
and/or mass murder of ordinary citizens must not be ignored,
must be halted. Thank God President Clinton stopped the
Slavic genocide of the 1990s; he's said he regrets not also
doing so in Rwanda.
As long as the U.S. judiciously limits its military interventions
to situations like last week's, it merits strong support.
Trump wins one for a change. (-!)

Well stated Amber.
ReplyDeleteOne fact we all I feel need to keep in mind, Many countries in our world have Nuclear weapons, ELECTRO MAGNETIC PULSE bombs( Look these up on line or at your library readers). So the potential for a WORLD WAR THREE is always present.
Like the famous ROD STEWART SONG( SHE,S GOT LEGS, SHE KNOWS HOW TO USE THEM!) Well the evil, cooky, dictatorial , etc HAVE BOMBS, THEY KNOW HOW TO USE THEM AND WILL! IN A HEART BEAT!
One more thing.
ReplyDeleteI feel MANY of those missiles have the capability of reaching THE UNITED STATS and this region. No matter what they tell us!
They have sleeper cells I read all over the world , EVEN IN AMERICA Amber. Suicide bombers, etc !
Maybe A LONG time ago the evil countries committing genocide THE BIG SHOTS not the COMMON people THEIR areas should have been bombed by America and their allies.
