You mean the stockpile that John Kerry and Susan Rice said Assad no longer had? Uh oh, better check and see if the Iranians are living up to their no nukes deal with the Obama administration too.

Thank you.
I thought that I was the only one trying to figure out why he was doing this.

you might have to explain that to him , i'm not sure he realizes that Obama was so weak.

Maybe Obama had the right idea. Stay out of Middle East affairs. Not our problem to police the rest of the world.
Which led to how many refugees flooding into Europe? And how many he wanted to bring here? There are extremists there trying to get their hands on nukes. Should we really disengage?

Let Europe or the Arab nations deal with it then. The Sunnis & Shia have been fighting each other for centuries. Do you want to stay there that long?
No, but there's an immediacy to the wmd issue. Western nations with nukes have them as a deterrent. Fanatics with nukes are willing to die inflicting horrific damage on their enemies.

So you believe we should invade North Korea?
Has North Korea actually attacked anyone? Sarin gas in a South Korean town? North Korea has a long history of saber rattling to get needed supplies from the West. That doesn't mean we withdraw from the peninsula though. And we haven't, and are engaged in diplomacy and our military is on the border. Far cry from what Obama did with Syria.

I guess you are unfamiliar of the atrocities N. Korea has committed against it's own citizens.

nowhere special
N Korea is possibly the most fortified country on Earth. But they can't feed their own people.
A paper tiger if ignored.

Actually they have. Look at the long history of border incidents and firing on South Korean navy vessels.
A nuke in the hands of a nutcase is a far cry from a few chemical shells.
And before you think our crap doesn't stink, why does the US still posess chemical weapon stockpiles?
Very familiar. They also have nukes and one of the world's largest armies a short distance from one of the world's largest commercial centers. What's needed is China putting pressure on them to reform and develop their own economy.
Yeah, let's let rogue nations have'm cause we have'm. See my other post on why we don't invade over minor incidents.

ah Obama didn't stay out of Syria he put us into it many times and was stupid enough to think he could negotiate away chemical weapons of mass destruction.

And yet Drumpf "knew" there was a stockpile at that airfield and did nothing to dispose of them.

I have news for you the day north korea demonstrates they have the ability and desire to deliver nukes on us by long range missile will be the day we attack North Korea regardless of whether a Dem or republican is in the white house.

Trump hit the Syrian air field with $70 million dollars of US munitions and it was operational 24 hours later. He sure showed them.

The day before Iran has the ability to threaten Israel with nuclear weapons is the day Israel will take action. And most likely drag the US in with them.

Israel doesn't need our help. They have plenty of nukes of their own.
