Pulling Out of Syria Is a Gift to Iran and Russia

Dec 19, 2018




RUSH: I know I haven’t mentioned Trump pulling out of Syria. I can only hit you with so much, folks. That’s something I wish the president wouldn’t do. That’s just gonna turn Syria and parts of that region over to Iran and Russia. Syria and Iran are Russian allies, client states. But he’s announced he’s declared victory and said we’re pulling out. We’re gonna get every man — every military personnel, all of it — out of Syria in a very, very short period of time.

Some people are not happy about it, obviously, including the military-industrial complex, ’cause war is a great investment. The nation’s at war, the nation needs ammo, needs guns, needs tanks, needs fighter planes, needs all kinds of stuff. It’s a great thing to invest in. It’s one of the reasons why there is always war going on. It’s a great money-making opportunity. I don’t mean to be cynical. But reality is what it is.

And what was keeping Iran and Russia out of Syria before April 2017?

They weren't kept out. Both Iran and Russia have been involved in Syria since the 70s. It has always been a global pawn.

Jeez Rush, some Presidents just send cash.  Sounds like Trump is a more thoughtful gift giver.

Jihadists and Rebels would have taken Syria if Russia had not stepped in and Iran and Hezbollah helped a lot too. Biggest mess I've seen.

Will this be another issue where there is so much blowback, he changes his position?

Some say, this is more proof he is indebted to Russia:

And a lot of people are saying things like this.

We have no business in Syria.

We only beat ISIS with the Kurds, the Syrian government, Iranians, Hezbollah and Russia didn't do it.  We'll see where this goes. Screw Assad, he has been found guilty in a US court of aiding al Qaeda and killing American soldiers, screw them all but the Kurds.  We have no business being in Syria if one didn't mind see terrorism thrive.

US Judge Rules Assad Helped Al-Qaeda Kill Americans

Assad didn't mind allowing Jihadists to flow through Syria to kill Americans and other coalition forces.
