Al-Assad on Friday attended the regional bloc’s 32nd summit that kicked off in Saudi Arabia’s port city of Jeddah for the first time since his country’s suspension following the eruption of war in Syria in 2011.

I’ve seen many interviews with Assad while the Isis cancer was destroying Syria. Very down to earth, very well spoken. The Syrian people love and respect him. Why did we try and conduct a regime change on him exactly? Why didn’t we arm him to the teeth when he and his country was fighting Isis? Instead we bombed him and his country. The US will get what it’s owed sooner or later. I’m an American Veteran but I’m practical and sympathetic. Most live so far inside the box these days that they don’t even know an outside exists. 📦 🌎

Concur.

No reason to do what we did to that country. It was all part of neocon bullshit ideology.

People scream about why Russia is bad is because "they invaded"

Then they say nothing or actually support this Syrian invasion that we did. Not to mention the continued occupation or the illegal extraction of wealth.

Bullshit, a bunch of hypocrites.

Semper fi

Imagine walking up to a man that spent billions sending bloodthirsty jihadists to kill your people over half a decade and kissing him on the cheek. If Assad can do it then peace should be possible anywhere.

I think the acceptance of Assad back into the fold says America has declined in status in the mid east.
