Wait...after 8 years of silence under Obbomba, and after the complete silence with regard to Hillary's foreign policy actions and statements while in office and on the campaign trail...suddenly so called Libs care about our foreign policy that bombs brown people and helps a bunch of gay killing misogynists? :suspicious:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


And yeah, with respect to Trump continuing this garbage...fvck him. :nod:

No excuse for Trump (Chizz, pay attention here)...but with all of the silly garbage flying around about the Ruskies and Trump being soft on the world's bad boys and terror, it is Hillaryous that those same media pundits would then complain about Trump being tough. :dunce:

Here's a very detailed story on the Al Gahyil raid. Turns out, there had even been some bad guys there...who happened to be on our side in the Yemen War. The Pentagon also released video footage of the computer and devices we were really after...then took it down after someone pointed out the clip was 10 years old. But hey...at least after killing a bunch of little kids we had the good graces to kill hundreds of livestock but leave enough survivors to hate America forever.

What a clusterfuck.

Uh That's kind of my point. Many of them are on our side enough to give them money and weapons...and kiss their rings...

I'll say one thing (Chizz...pay attention here, too), Russia used the US to screw Turkey. :lol:

Thanks, Obama! :nod:

Brilliant move by Russia and Assad to let US forces head off the Turkish invasion. :nod:

Holy crap...what is Turkey going to do now? :suspicious:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

The big Turkey/Kurd open warfare show down was blunted, and Russia comes out looking like geopolitical geniuses compared to Obama. Putin just owned Obama. :nod: :lol:

That does explain why Obama adjusted the definition of a civilian casualty though. :lol:

True, the media was busy laying palm fronds at his feet as he walked. Even the birther stuff paled in comparison to what Trump is dealing with and (to klam's point) much of it is self inflicted.

A problem (and not the only one) with the article, and many such articles, is that they carefully edited it to minimize the fact that Obama got us rolling in that area. Obama's so called effort to limit civilian casualties is a farce. As pointed out in the article, 12 civilians were killed in a wedding drone attack under Obama, and they list several other civilian casualties...but they did not emphasize Obama was responsible as they are emphasizing Trump's responsibility. And, even worse, under Obama, we had American advisers inside the Saudi command centers while the Saudis routinely bombed Yemen hospitals and civilian targets. Our excuse? Even though we helped the Saudis identify targets, we didn't actually make the final calls regarding where the Saudi air force bombed. :suspicious: But hey, we watched them, in the same room, conduct those missions time after time. :rofl: :rofl:

So yeah, the folks in Yemen, especially the ones in that village, know we bomb the crap out of their people...they've experienced it first hand many times under Obama.

It is ridiculous that our role in Yemen, and Libya, have been consistently under reported by the Obama friendly press, and our role in Syria was framed as Obama trying to help innocent civilians defeat the oppressive, Russian backed Assad regime, when all the while Obama killed in the name of, and propped up, a corrupt and violently oppressive Saudi regime.

Trump should get the hell out of the Middle East. But, the whack jobs in the intelligence and defense departments are hell bent on staying involved in that area, despite the fact that we keep making enemies. It is almost as though they have blinders on because it is all that they have known to do. :dunce:

We had protesters on the corner of 4th and historic Highway 61 during the Bush administration. They have been gone for 8 years. Expect to see them again, as regular as the Robins return in the Spring.

Speaking of buyer's remorse, it was a good move for Trump to dump Flynn...
