He’s a convenient leader for Israel, bc he allows the Israeli military to keep the territory they invaded in southern Syria at the fall of Assad. Israel invaded and is currently occupying 10 military bases there, inching them closer to their Greater Israel (Nile to Euphrates) promised in the Talmud. Since this administration, like all the administrations of the last 40 + years, is mostly Israel 1st - they will forgive Sharaa. Should Sharaa double cross the Israeli’s, he’ll go back on the terror list. See, our elites don’t care about maimed and killed American boys, they only care what their Israeli bosses want.
I am OK with people switching sides. If we are to be forgiving, we have to be forgiving of everyone. Not that I want the guy at my house, because I'm a woman and I don't trust him totally, but you have to start somewhere.
We can't weep for the soldiers killed and then turn away someone who CLAIMS to be somewhat reformed in some way.
The thing is this, they are all going to lie to the US to see what they can milk out of us. Some MAY be sincere. Welcome them in, but watch them like a hawk.
I don't really trust any Muslims at this point....but I know in my heart that there have to be good Muslims that don't agree with the beheadings and burqa's etc. Remember, just like we only get to see the crazies, so do they.
For ANY Muslim to reach out to us is a start......
Also, keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
Remember that while you keep being lied to that there are "peaceful muslims." They don't exist. Never have and never will. They go by their koran. Period. There isn't anything called a "reformed muslim." Go read their koran. Just like the Bible. You can't cherry pick.
I'm certain there are Muslims who would only want to live peacefully, without violence or enmity. Thing is, I don't expect that they will come to our aid when the violent ones do start attacking.
Exactly, They refer to ALL Non-Muslims as Infidels which is the lowest form of human extinction!! They have made it clear that they want to wipe out ALL non Muslims from the face of the earth- Nice People-NOT!!!
What's wrong with fighting against an occupying force? Isn't that what we should do right here, if it came to that? It's sad American soldiers suffered. They never should have been there.
I guess you never read the short story about the little boy who rescued the injured snake on the side of the road and nursed the snake back to health!! Matthew 7:6 Don't waste what is holy on people who are unholy. Don't throw your pearls to pigs! They will trample the pearls, then turn around and attack you.
John... the only thing I would say is that Trump is no idiot. He is a top negotiator and businessman and what you see is not necessarily what is true and what is his motive. I believe he is America first and has not deviated from that. He does not show his hand. I think it is premature to make drastic assumptions.
On a side note I seriously doubt Lindsey Graham has any real influence on Trump. Keep your enemies close is Trumps' mantra. Lindsey Graham is rather ineffective at this point and everyone knows it.
That is BS, Trump is in on the whole Globalist agenda!! Still pushing bioweapon vaccines, approves Glyphosate, Quit investigating and prosecuting what he unveiled with DOGE, Says let's move on with the Epstein case; Trump, the DemonRats, and Repubturds do not have our best interest!!
John, I assume you know Sun Tzu, and "The Art of the Deal". With those assumptions, you should be aware that negotiation is the art of getting what you want at an acceptable price, and to make that price as low as possible for the actual value received while also creating perceptions for future and more important negotiations. We really don't know anything except what Trump wants everyone to think, which is potentially the point of the entire public narrative for use in the future. What should be obvious is that Trump negotiates at a level of chess that we should all master. It is the height of arrogance to think that anyone could knows all the pieces on the table. Wise observers have learned to watch to see how everything plays out over time before we can make any kind of judgement.
hmmmmm.... Wonder what the injured U.S. service personnel and the survivors of the deceased U.S. service personnel think about Sun Tzu (The Art of War) and "The Art of the Deal".
Iran was funding domestic terrorism, human trafficking, and the spread of hostile Islamic Shara Law all over the USA, paying our corrupt politicians to allow it in every state and city. (Witness Europe's struggle with Sharia to see where the USA is going) Much of their funding came from the Obama-Biden regime. The military is undoing 12 years of funding enemies to destroy us. Iran were using their oil sales to continue our destruction. They were threatening to shut off the straight of Hormuz if anyone tried to stop them. Iran's Islamic maniacs murdered 20,000 of their own citizens to date with no end in sight, including thousands of Christians. The military sent a message to all other nations funding our domestic destruction: We know who you are and this is what waits for you if you don't stop. All the service people volunteered for this.
This visit is a fitting reminder that the U.S. created the mujahadeen, ISIS, Al Nusra and all the other horrible terrorist groups. The Military-Industrial Complex can't survive without enemies, even if it has to create and then demonize them...
Assad was toppled while *President Potted Plant was still snoozing in the Oval Office. President Trump has to deal with the leaders he got. This guy is now President of Syria. If President Trump can work with him, it'll be fine. If he can't, I suspect he won't be Syrian President for long.
I agree with you, annademo. Additionally, Trump is a superb negotiator. He often uses flattery with our adversaries which is a tactic. How successful would he be if he insults the adversary? He has world leaders who can’t figure him out. This gives him power. Even if the current Syrian president was a terrorist, if he is willing to work with us and maintain peace, that is certainly preferable to waging war on Syria.
He allowed the Israel’s to occupy the southern regions of Syria, and they are still there today since the fall of Damascus. They have taken over 10 military bases and intend to stay. It brings them one step closer to their greater Israel Talmudic promise.
We have no business occupying ME countries, and meddling in their affairs. So, as far as fighting Americans by any means available, in their own land, he's on firm ground IMO. If we can believe what we've been told, which we cannot, ISIS consists of tyrannical savages who abuse their own native populations. But one thing I've learned is believe nothing the government and MSM say. I had a draft number of 9 in the Vietnam days, so I joined the navy to stay out of the jungles. It was clear to me facing off with Charlie was a sucker move even back then, so that's the place I come from. So my opinion is I don't know about him, can't know about him, but do know nothing the feds do is connected to the welfare of the citizens of the USA. Except when necessary for optics to get elected. I see no reason to care much about this meeting.
John, I'm seeing a trend in your posts about world events in general and Trump specifically. You would do better to react less and thoughtfully respond more. Reactivity is characterized by emotion, impulsiveness, attacks, stress, narrow/binary thinking, and venting, at the risk of creating regrets and triggering similar reactions from others. Thoughtful response is characterized by pausing to gather more information, observing yours and others emotions, intentionally choosing a response by engaging the rational brain with a wider perspective, motivated by the best long-term outcomes. Another way of saying it is to avoid sounding like the mainstream media who constantly create division and fear. Instead, be a thought leader to help others process the world with courage and conviction.
Perhaps you would prefer that the US go to war with Syria, John. You obviously don’t believe that Iran was any threat to the US, despite their work on developing long range nuclear weapons. After observing the numbers and ranges of the missiles they’ve launched in the past week and a half that, so far, can reach Europe, and the chants of “Death to America,”. I have no doubt that Iran was a threat to America. Wake up, John.
Among other roles, Trump is president of the USA. As revolting as it may be to some, he has to walk a path of greatest good for the USA.
That means that if he has to shake hands with what has been a mortal enemy in order to secure whatever is desired that tomorrow brings, he may have to let bygones be bygones.
Have your relatives fought in combat yet walked away from the combat spirit once peace has come around? How many Viet Nam vets have traveled back to Viet Nam and met with what was former enemy only to hug, cry, and move forward?
I found it totally reprehensible when it occurred, and I still find it reprehensible. I also find it reprehensible that we have allowed the massacre by him and his hordes, of Christians, Kurds, and Druze. Totally inane.
Shakespeare cracked this case hundreds of years ago:
All the world's a stage...
He’s a convenient leader for Israel, bc he allows the Israeli military to keep the territory they invaded in southern Syria at the fall of Assad.

Why not start at your house, TiredCitizen?
Sorry, TiredCitizen! I meant the comment for Lois.
I’m sure the Epstein elites will keep you protected 🙄
What's wrong with fighting against an occupying force? Isn't that what we should do right here, if it came to that? It's sad American soldiers suffered. They never should have been there.

Hate the sin, love the sinner.
Why not start at your house, Lois.
Lois, it’s difficult to know how to respond to your comments, as they’re awfully wish-washy, contradictory, vague, and, well…flaky.
Facts are facts and need to be stated.
John... the only thing I would say is that Trump is no idiot. He is a top negotiator and businessman and what you see is not necessarily what is true and what is his motive.

Just another Always Trumper
Are you saying you preferred Heels Up Harris?
Right. America first? She's gotta be kidding.

TEXAS,
You might try looking at history instead of funny papers, what you have written here is NOT facts.
Thank you. Please provide facts.

The art of war?
Yes, both are required reading to understand negotiating with a hostile opponent.
This visit is a fitting reminder that the U.S. created the mujahadeen, ISIS, Al Nusra and all the other horrible terrorist groups. The Military-Industrial Complex can't survive without enemies, even if it has to create and then demonize them...

He's been a US/Israeli asset since his release from prison.
I believe you, but how do you know that?
He allowed the Israel’s to occupy the southern regions of Syria, and they are still there today since the fall of Damascus. They have taken over 10 military bases and intend to stay. It brings them one step closer to their greater Israel Talmudic promise.

Texas, how can one who violates the leading of his own conscience possibly be trusted to lead others?
Agreed.
"Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer" it is a strategy.
Or is it part of the Art of the deal?
Trump graciously welcomed Mamdani to the White House. It was a wise gesture.
Perhaps you would prefer that the US go to war with Syria, John. You obviously don’t believe that Iran was any threat to the US, despite their work on developing long range nuclear weapons.

The US was at war with Syria from 2011 until it succeededi overthrowing Assad.
This one is easy.......he's CIA trained, so just another CIA place holder. Sock Puppet, does as told!
Among other roles, Trump is president of the USA. As revolting as it may be to some, he has to walk a path of greatest good for the USA.

You need to step back and reflect.
