Ron Paul: Why The Hell Are We Attacking Syrians Fighting ISIS?

JD Mon, 06/19/2017 - 20:07

Former presidential candidate Ron Paul has slammed Washington for repeatedly attacking Syrian forces who he says are helping to destroy ISIS.

According to the former politician, the U.S. has actively helped the terrorist group by attacking Syrian government-backed forces who were successfully pummeling ISIS.

Ronpaulinstitute.org reports: The US is training yet another rebel group fighting from that base, located near the border of Iraq at al-Tanf, and it claims that Syrian government forces pose a threat to the US military presence there. But the Pentagon has forgotten one thing: it has no authority to be in Syria in the first place! Neither the US Congress nor the UN Security Council has authorized a US military presence inside Syria.

A foreign policy of peace, non-intervention, and no entangling alliances is far superior to this mess.

I agree. Trump really needs to reign in McMaster before this situation escalates into WW3. Trump has been acting recklessly in Syria on bad advice from both the NSC and his in-laws. I won't be surprised to see Russia down one of our military jets in the near future. Trump, we, the people, have warned you about the USA's foolhardy approach in Syria.
