Pamela Geller on Breitbart Radio on Syria Strike: ‘What Is the Objective? Which Al-Qaeda Satellite Are We Partnering With?’

[ABX]

Interesting, all sides are splitting in all different directions over this.

“I’m deeply concerned. I don’t understand it,” Geller said. “It seems like a knee-jerk reaction. It doesn’t speak to a coherent policy. It seems to me that Trump has switched sides.”...

Problem with the Middle East is that there are hardly ever any good sides or solid solutions. It's like trying to pick which turd smells the best. You just can't hardly win.

I can only hope this action accomplishes something relevant and doesn't come back to bite us on the butt, because that's all you can ever hope for there.

Incoherent.  The usual fauxers are COMPLICIT.

Russia's been there for 16 months; why are they not attacking the ISIS capitol of Raqqa? Why is the US the only one who ever hits Al Qaeda/ISIS leaders?

Geller ought to go live in Syria if she is so concerned instead of comment from her New York townhouse.

If one looks at stories on Raqqa today, one finds little or no mention of them.

Today's headlines:

Civilian Exodus Increases as Raqqa Offensive Intensifies
U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces, recapturing more territory from IS fighters on the road to Raqqa, are paving the way for villagers to find safety as battles intensify. VOA's Zana Omar reports.

US expands air base in northern Syria for use in battle for Raqqa   
By TARA COPP | STARS AND STRIPES Published: April 3, 2017

WASHINGTON – The Air Force has expanded an air base in northern Syria to assist in the fight to retake the city of Raqqa from the Islamic State, U.S. Central Command said.

The base is near Kobani, which is about 90 miles north of Raqqa, the last urban stronghold for ISIS in Syria. It gives the United States an additional location to launch aircraft to support U.S. and other anti-ISIS forces in the campaign to recapture the city, said Col. John Thomas, a spokesman for Central Command.

Syrian opposition calls on US to spare civilians in Raqqa
    By philip issa, associated press
BEIRUT — Mar 26, 2017, 4:28 PM ET
 U.S.-backed Syrian Kurdish forces captured a strategically important air base from Islamic State militants in north Syria on Sunday in the first major victory for the group since the U.S. airlifted the forces behind enemy lines four days ago.

The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces announced they had captured the Tabqa air base, 45 kilometers (28 miles) west of Raqqa, the Islamic State group's de facto capital in Syria.

I see no mention of the Syrian Regime or Russia in these stories of today, meaning that even if we take one's story, the impact of Russian bombing did not seem effective.

So. Many. Instant. Syria. Experts. Overnight.

It certainly pertains to me, I don't know about others.

EVERY "side" in Syria (those who are fighting) is "the wrong side".

They're all muslims.
