President Joe Biden delivered a short address from the White House on Sunday, claiming credit for the toppling of the regime of Syrian dictator Bashar Assad, who was ousted by rebels after a long and brutal reign lasting decades.
Biden claimed that a combination of U.S. policies — isolating Assad; tying Russia down in Ukraine; and allowing Israel freedom of action against Iran and its Hezbollah proxy — weakened the regime and left it without defenders.
Biden said: Over the past four years, my administration pursued a clear, principled policy towards Syria. First, we made clear from the start that sanctions on Assad would remain in place unless

Just what the world needs is another radical Islamic nation. At least they're not Shia or an Iranian puppet. Maybe we could hope they go to war with Iran.

He also stepped out the day after claiming credit for the "Historic, mostly peaceful, Afghanistan Pullout", gonna be pretty hard for him and the Dems to place any blame on Trump when Syria turns into a total chitshow.
The USA is flying B52's in massive bombing runs over parts of Syria...TODAY

Not high-fiving anyone until we know what's next. Track record is not good when secular rulers are overthrown in that part of the world. Very good possibility of Iran 2.0.
Brandon's doing good at replace Jimmy at the bottom of the list.

JaBiden then is pro Al Queda, because that is flavor of Islamic terror from which the rebels arose. No surprises here. Can a billion $$$ be far behind for these Al Queda.

Omg, he wants credit for swapping out one evil for a different and likely worse evil?

If there is anyone Joe Dementia can claim credit for toppling it is Kamala Harris. The only redeeming thing he has done in his entire life!

He also stabbed Julius Caesar on the steps of the Theatre of Pompey after pushing Brutus out of the way so he could have the first cut.

This article is an admission of the previous article where we bombed the hell out of Syria.
It was done to bring down Assad. The US is behind the coup.

Assad was deposed by ISIS and the terrorists took over from the homicidal dictator. Whose side did Biden say he was on?

Oh brother...ole Joe is building his legacy for when he leaves office....and the pardoning of hunter was making a very negative narrative for the fake news...so they needed something to offset the dialogue....WE need Hegseth confirmed as quickly as possible....and that's not working so well for the White House cabal staffers...whoever they are....this country is being run by vicious and desperate commies who know their time is short...hence the bombing....

Traitor Joe: bringing warmongering to new heights...
His strategy, from his own mouth, was to replace Assad, a strategy guaranteed to require a bloody revolution...because Assad would never abdicate on his own.
Then bomb the bejesus out of the rebels who kicked him out.
Result: an entire country, Syria, which has just gone through decades of brutal civil infighting, is left more of a bloody, smoking ruin than it already was.
Does any strategy of Joe NOT involve a bloody militaristic solution?

Canutian. Positively Canutian. What a nonentity Biden is, and always has been. For a variety of reasons, things are not going to go well for him. Thanks, Delaware for keeping this loser in Washington since '73. Now sit down and be quiet.

I'm with #6.
Looking at this, there's Assad, the people who kicked him out, and the HairSniffer.
Are there any good guys in this play, or are they all crooks, villains or fools?
Actually, I understand that the people who kicked out Assad are working with the existing Prime Minister and presumably some of the other existing officials, so they're not just murdering everyone. Perhaps there is hope, but the water is very muddy right now.
