That wasn’t a press conference. That was a job interview. Dr Jackson said if trump ate better he could live to be 200. It was embarrassing.

Sorry the Trump administration doesn’t deserve ANY benefit of the doubt. The fact that trumps reported weight puts him exactly one pound under being clinically obese seems pretty unlikely. But It was mainly the over the top description of trumps health that makes that whole press conference pretty laughable. Of course, 2 months later Trump nominated Jackson to be secretary of veterans affairs. Jackson had no business being nominated to that position, and its pretty clear that Trump just liked the guy, and a lot of that approval comes from Jackson’s portrayal of Trump as an exceptional human specimen.

it would have been idiotic for Assad to use chemicals when Syria was winning
If you’re going to make excuses for Assad, at least try ones that make sense.
Chlorine gas was regularly used on civilian populations because its use is scary as fuck. It’s not a great weapon. It’s terrorism intended to demoralize and break the rebels
Do you think the rebels used chlorine on themselves?
What is your agenda ? You take this stand that you’re anti-war, but you seem determined to downplay and rationalize the worst kinds of behavior. You make excuses for bombing hospitals: nobody was there. For ethnic cleansing: it sucks to lose a war and at least they’re not being genocided. For chemical weapons atttacks: there’s questions about the survey, so let’s believe the side which has been targeting civilians for 7 years.
It’s pretty fucked up where you come down on these issues

Yeah what does Richard Engel know. He’s only one of the few western journalists who is actually in these war zones.

What i find most amazing about your positions is how you almost always take the side of the powerful over the powerless.
The Kurds have almost no power. They are not a military threat to turkey. They may be a political threat, but that is the way change should happen. Turkey has the power to crush the Kurds. pressure from the international community is really the only thing keeping genocide from happening.

. I don't know as much about the Kurds, but as I've said before they seem less European than other Syrians.
What the fuck kind of argument is that? Is that where you’re at now? Judging people by how Europeans they are?

To me that's better than your patriotic lies.
Right about what? That’s the same fucking document you’ve been posting for two years. It doesn’t prove anything.
This is what the people you endlessly defend did. And you’re arguing over fucking disagreements about chlorinated hydrocarbons in the soil. Wtf dude.

I think it’s pretty clear that isn’t the case. You actually seem to be quite willing to accept the use of force to get a result you prefer. You are in support of the violation of international boundaries and annexation in Crimea and Syria. You can spin it however you wish, but I thinks it’s becoming pretty clear to a lot of us that there’s quite a disconnect between your stated goal of peace and your support of military force when it suits you.

“War is bad.”
That’s the summation of your feelings about seven years of Russia and Assad targeting civilians. Assad started this war to smother a popular uprising. You don’t give a shit about the fact these people have been living under a dictatorship their entire lives. You’re too busy getting to the bottom of whether or not Assad used chemicals that one time. WHY DOES IT FUCKING MATTER? The end result is the same. But just In case anyone felt sympathy for the victims of Assad’s war crimes, you seem to question their entire worth as a people. They’re not European and see how scary and primitive they appear:

Look at the Syrians who are siding with Assad and Russia. Look how modern they are. It’s almost like siding with the regime means you don’t have to carry water on your head and deal with islamists in a bombed out hell hole. Syrians who side with the regime go to bars and party. THIS IS STRAIGHT UP PROPAGANDA.

Why don’t you watch that documentary about the hospital in allepo I posted. None of those people were religious extremists. They barely seemed religious at all.

Neither do they apparently. I already showed you that last year over 600,000 people returned to Syria after the fighting slowed down.
And I’m Donald Trump supporter because I didn’t leave the US when he won.
Are you really trying to say that because these people who had been living as refugees returned home when they could, it means they are cool with the Assad regime? They stayed in Syria in hopes to bring change until they were forced to flee.
Your spin is getting more fucked up everyday

Bashar al Assad is a brutal dictator and war criminal. He’s used chemical weapons, dropped illegal munitions, bombed hospitals and targeted innocent civilians. Tens of thousands of prisoners taken by his regime were executed and tens of thousands more are missing. Hundreds of thousands of people died in his war to remain in power. Six million people fled their homes.
And you’re bragging about his approval numbers.

When I click on something that says “do I trust NATO” I expect a link to NATO. Not some right wing propaganda outlet.
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/world-tribune/
Quote:
we rate World Tribune a Questionable source based on far right bias (propaganda), and poor sourcing and misleading science, as well as a lack of ownership transparency.
That article asserts the data comes from NATO? When you search for “NATO Assad popularity” you get an assortment of self referential articles, one outlet using another outlet as the source, but no actual link to NATO data. I’m pretty skeptical that NATO does approval polling in war zones. I don’t think approval polls have much value in dictatorships, and zero value when millions of people have been displaced. Assad spent the past seven years crushing dissenters. You can’t get accurate approval data in a war torn county with a leader who executes people who are identified as being against the regime.
I used to think you were naive, but you are clearly spreading disinformation deliberately

Fal just said approval was 70% according to nato. We find out its a bunch of activists guessing and then telling NATO about it. Funny how the truth doesn’t get close to resembling what falcon says
I don’t really care what Assad’s approval is. I’m just blown away that someone on this site is touting fake blockbuster polling numbers of one of humanity’s most depraved homicidal leaders
Can we get Hilters numbers? Curious to see who gets the best genocide popularity bump

Who gives a fuck about his poll numbers. Wtf are you even going on about?
*on one hand he put his country through a 7 year war to keep his hold onto power. On the other hand, he’s polling 90% in the 25-64 Non-Refugtee demo.

You really can’t tell I’m mocking falcon for essentially saying the same thing about Assad.
Exempt Obama isn’t a war criminal and he’s nothing like Assad. Assad is a genocidal maniac

Comparing Obama or trump to Assad is ridiculous. You are just creating an alternative fake history when you defend Assad. The way he executed the war is totally inexcusable

The US went out if it’s way to avoid direct conflict between US and Syrian regime forces. The US was in Syria to destroy ISIS
