Pulling US troops out of Syria is leading to peace

They haven’t.

 

He gassed his own people. Stalin shot, starved, and tortured to death his own people. What's the difference?

 

It is quite orderly.

 

Your logic is kind of circular--order is being maintained so long as those people causing the disorder are routinely executed.

 

Yes. Which is the definition of disorder. It’s dumb and I’m not playing.

 

Yes. Order is maintained.
That is how we do it here. We imprison the disorderly

 

Good way of saying you can't make a logical case that N.Korea is in disorder.

 

It depends on the state of order you find acceptable. Your bar is set pretty low it appears.

 

Well I suppose none but if you consider that appropriate behavior then I cant help you.

 

High enough.

 

This is just trolling at this point. High enough to accept genocide I guess.

 

Trolling is not giving an answer you do not agree with.

 

I don't consider it appropriate behavior. I also realize it is not our job as a nation to overthrow every dictator. If we do overthrow a dictator, it creates a vacuum we must fill. We have never filled that vacuum very well. We overthrow dictators and leave chaos in our wake. We destabilized Assad and made what was bad become absolutely horrible.

 

See my reply to Rev Mitch.
"High enough" that we as a nation do not go to war over it. We can not police the entire Earth.

 

I dont think we should either and even if we should we are broke and should not on that basis alone. But saying assad msintained order based on what he did is not only wrong but callous. He himself engaged in disorder when he gassed his own people

 

I’ll remember you said that. You seem to play pretty fast and loose with the term.

 

As far as our security interests went, he maintained order. He had actually become a useful ally after Israel bombed him.

 

I find your view repulsive

 

What is the alternative? Do we destabilize and overthrow every dictator who murders his people, or do we only overthrow those who are an immediate risk to our security interests?
Honestly I find destabilizing governments and leaving untold thousands dead in the wake of doing so to be quite repulsive.
We are allies with many unsavory players. Facts are at times inconvenient, but they are still facts.

 

What we do is a seperate issue. Minimizing assads actions as you have is disgusting.
