I like the old one better. This one is clue less what his govt and military is up too in Syria. I rather jaw jaw at the Iranians and Russians rather than a war war war that is not in our best interest. Other than bombing the crap out of Isis we have no dog in this fight what so ever. If Israel doesn't want an Iranian footprint in Syria it should kick them out with it's own military. American will lose serviceman for no gain if this heats up any further and not one life or dollar is worth the middle east cesspool of today.

in matters of war, the more one waits, the more rotten the carcass.

strategic patience is no strategy at all. it is filling in the blanks with
more blanks.

great leaders know how to make decisions. they do not dither
and wash their hands till the skin is no more.

war is the most serious undertaking by humans. diplomacy, the jaw jaw,
is much preferable. unfortunately, war cannot always be avoided
given the irrationality and will to power of certain leaders.
when a war cannot be avoided, sharpen your spears, prepare
your weapons, prepare your logistics, all in secret, and then
strike very hard--so hard that the enemy will not know what
hit him

You may have liked obama better but Americans did not and voted for Trump instead of Hillary.
Under obama our military was reduced to being ineffective and a laughing stock among our enemies.
It was obama that helped make the 'cesspool' a reality and it will be Trump who kicks some serious enemy ass.
Remember that and also, spell check your misuse of the English language is appalling.
KEEP BUILDING !!

You named the democrats who helped reduce America to a military joke.
That's one reason America is overwhelmingly voting for Republicans.
Todays democrats are nothing like the older party.
This party now is top heavy with Islamists, thugs and unemployed violent 'demonstrators.' Go Trump!
