    I disagree with you on this.. Let Assad be Russia and Iran's problem. Let them rebuild Syria if they like. Syria probably won't recover for 20 years.

    Dug plenty. Problem is we want Assad out and so does ISIS. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/...-in-syria.html But we are not partnering. ISIS is almost gone.

    10,000 ISIS moved to Afghanistan and God knows how many moved into Libya.. We haven't defeated them.

    I think that the legitimate Syrian government can handle that- with UN support of course. Not to mention Russian, Lebanese and Iranian militaries.

    Syria is neighbor to ' ISRAEL'. ' Israel ' wants Iran attacked- but must secure Syria first. You know that. ' Israel' is the root cause of ALL Middle East dissent because it has the blanket support of the United States. It kills and steals with impunity.
    Now the House of Saud is in bed with the neoZionists- because it too wants Iran attacked. Your warmongers are under observation.

    Not anymore.. Syria has a long history of coups, sectarian violence and oppression. .. and, Syria was in economic freefall for 5 years before civil war broke out. This catastrophic war is Assad's fault.. Its not the fault of Saudi Arabia, or the United States or Israel. Iran and Russia didn't bother to help Syria when it would have mattered.

    Syria had a Sunni majority.. Iran didn't care about them.. and failed to counsel Assad to follow thru on the reforms he promised nor did they provide any economic relief.

    The Alawites are like the mafia and Assad benefited.. They have operated above the law for 4 decades earning money by drug traficking and kidnapping for ransom.

    For God's sake, read some in depth history of Syria since 1945.
