The problem is that US supported the so called "Rebels", got the ISIS problem as bonus and made of Libya and Yemen a no state countries. Iran meddling is making it only worse.parabelum wrote:Inconvenient truth is that Bashar al-Assad regime has and is protecting endangered Christians in Syria as well as minority Alawites.
The so-called "rebels" are nothing more then ISIS sympathizing fascists, hiding behind woman and children like rotten cowards that they are.

Even after the shooting, nothing? Seems like it was planned and orchestrated since there was no response.AndyC wrote:I want to know where the heck this guy's security-detail was; he was an ambassador, for Pete's sake. Threat analysis - fail.
Another reason why only highly trained police and military should have guns....especially in Turkey. Another casualty of the all powerful "gun lobby".mojo84 wrote:Shooter was is an off duty 22 yr. old cop that shot him 8 times according to Fox News.

Beiruty, I can agree that terrorism is overused, and I have to be careful not to paint with too broad of a brush, but for me it is easy to boil it down.Beiruty wrote:Terrorism is an overloaded word.Soap wrote:Well isn't it terrorism responding to terrorism?AJSully421 wrote:One thing I know for sure... the media is going to tell us that this was not islamic terrorism.
In short, it is successful assassination of a diplomatic figure in retaliation for a religious-sect cleansing in Syria. What happened in Aleppo is war genocide. A metroplex City as big as Dallas was destroyed regardless of who was there, if you watch some videos of infants being pulled out of the rubbles after an Air Strike, you would hate all kind of wars regardless of its political intent. It is World War 3, were US (and their allies) chickened out from the fight after so many red lines were drawn in the shoreline sand using clear lipsticks.
Not to blame anyone or condemn this against that. In the name of Freedom, a million or so lives were destroyed and 5-6 millions were forced to leave their homeland. In the name of fighting terrorism, the same genocide happened.
