Future gas-pipe projects, also drawing a red-line because of Russia's encroachment in the Ukraine over the past years- remember that Russia has a port in Syria, just like it had one in Crimea -indeed I believe that the crimean port was the only port the Russian navy had access towards all-year around, including the winter where normally the seas around Russia would be frozen solid.
There is a lot at stake.
As someone whose earliest intelligible memories are actually of the bullshit surrounding the run-off to the Iraq invasion, I don't believe any of this.
Are you from Europe? Because nothing of what you say has anything to do with the USA, I asked about US interests, gas-pipe could interest Europe, Russia has had ports in Crimea and Syria for as long as I remember, I really see no sense in bombing Syria, there is absolutely nothing to gain, remember Trump said it was wrong to bomb Syria in 2013 when the same gas was used, why is it different now? Just as back then there s no definite proof it was Assad, probably it was him, but no proof, how do they know which field the plane with the gas lifted from and why didn't they down the plane if they knew?
And now the real question, do you think it's wise to kick out Assad and have the rebels take over? Syria is a mess, the US should not get involved, especially if they don't even have a plan.
'Because nothing of what you say has anything to do with the USA'
Are you familiar with 'The grand chessboard' (Zbiegniew Brezinski)'? The wider geo-political objects of the federal deep-state has been to destabilise the Eurasian landmass, and to ensure no single regional power can dominate, that has been the guiding policy for all administrations since the late 80's/early 90's.
Ok, I get what you are saying now, I don't know about the The grand chessboard but I do know about Brzezinski.
Nothing was achieved. President just needed to be seen doing 'something'.
I don't agree with point 8, the rest are good.
