Iran speaks out

One of which ISIS is not losing.

You seemed to be under the impression that it was Syria Vs ISIS. Civil war broke out in 2011, ISIS (among others) used that to their advantage to gain ground and resources in Syria.

Syrians refugees have been fleeing Syria since around 2011-12, at least. I don't think ISIS invaded into Syria until late 2013

And when did this migration crisis start?

Good question, 2012. Seems to have happened not long after the Syrian Civil War broke out. Civil War breaks, less than a year later people flee the war-torn areas and refugees start pouring into neighboring countries.

So taking over Syria and Iraq and working their way outward, I guess you will never grasp anything, strawman.

This is the most adorable thing I've ever seen.

And if had taken out Asssad in the first place we would not be in this mess.

Because killing the crappy leader of a country worked out great in Iraq?

cause keeping him is working out so well now.

Alright smarty pants, how do you propose the US should have "taken out" Asad?

Sanction till revolt. Make the people see the world won't do business with their tyrannical regime.

Um, the US did impose sanctions on Assad. There also was a revolt in Syria, it started the civil war.

edit: On 18 May 2011, U.S. President Barack Obama signed an Executive order putting into effect sanctions against Assad in an effort to pressure his regime "to end its use of violence against its people and begin transitioning to a democratic system that protects the rights of the Syrian people."

Taken from Assad's wiki, it is sourced.

Like...what happened? And still hasn't gotten rid of Al-Assad?

And which paved the way for ISIS to expand into Syria?

You should also realize how little trade America had with Syria. The EU had more pull, but their sanctions haven't changed much. Iran, China, and Russia are bigger trade partners, and they like Assad just fine.

So you admit Obama failed. I'm glad we reached this point.

Failed by doing the thing you said he should have done.

Jesus. The hamsters in your brain must be running to an offkey rendition of Pharrel's Happy.

I led you to this.

Now you're just being aphasic.

Obama failed your ideology and broke ranks, he did what the republicans always do. How does that make you feel?

Team up with the french army and kill the sucker and his allies was the only other call.
