Strathmere - Syria dropped 495 barrel bombs (oil cans filled with explosives and shrapnel) in March alone. It dropped 12,958 on civilians in 2016. Trump is now indicating possible further action in Syria to retaliate against barrel bombing. He now is promoting an evolving, word-scramble policy that our "national interest" involves fighting terrorism, easing humanitarian crisis, and restoring stability to the region - all while saying we cannot be the world's policeman. Nukes in North Korea are the biggest security threat to the world. Will Trump soon have the U.S. at war in two regions on the globe?
Moderator's Note:
A New York Times article April 10 states, "According to the Syrian Network for Human Rights, the government dropped 495 barrel bombs in March alone, and 12,958 in 2016."
