I need to address this madness.

Obama did enough REAL things that we don't need to add fantasy to the list.

All that matters is that @realDonaldTrump has changed our role in the world forever.
In reality, Obama built on Condoleezza Rice and Nancy Pelosi's work of STRENGTHENING Bashar al-Assad.

Rice convinced that we needed Assad for the "Middle East peace process," despite the FACT that Assad derived his power from being a state sponsor of terrorism.
A Syrian dissident described Assad perfectly:

"He's the arsonist who sells water to the fire department."

By forever causing trouble, Assad kept himself in the regional spotlight and was appeased endlessly.
Obama instituted a NEW approach to Assad:
"In early 2009, the United States began to review its Syria policy in light of changes in the country and the region, leading to an effort to engage with Syria to find areas of mutual interest, reduce regional tensions, and promote Middle East peace." https://www.state.gov/u-s-relations-with-syria/
The usual State Department insanity.

Syria had put down several uprisings with unchecked savagery.

The idea that Obama imported jihadists is ludicrous.
The Syrian Civil War began on March 15, 2011, when Assad's internal security and the Syrian Arab Army opened fire on protestors demanding more freedom.

This time the savagery didn't work, so Assad upped the ante in terms of violence.
He sent in the Shabiha ("Ghosts") to kidnap, torture, and murder protestors.
Assad had always allowed Sunni terrorists to use Syria as a kind of highway and rest stop and informal training ground.

Exactly the way Iraq did and Iran does.

Dictators think they can keep the monsters they create.

Ask the Democrats how that worked out for THEM.
The Middle East ALWAYS comes down to sectarianism.

Assad is an Allawite, and so were the Shabiha.

When they began massacring Sunnis, the terrorists who were ALREADY IN SYRIA turned against him...and he found that his crap army couldn't handle them.
By 2011, the Sunni terrorists had well over a decades' worth of combat experience.

Assad had also given shelter to the Iraqi army and intelligence officers who held fled Iraq after the fall of Saddam.

Assad and Saddam's political party is the Ba'aths.
Ba'athism is Nazism.

It's a militantly nationalist party that strives to create a unified Arab empire by force. It's entirely centralized, collectivist, and controlled by an absolute dictator.

The founders of Ba'athism were Zaki al-Arsuzi and Michel Aflaq.
Al-Arsuzi was influenced by fascism, while Aflaq by communism.

Aflaq gradually became disillusioned with communism and formed a movement based on the ideas of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party.

Ba'athism is indistinguishable from Nazism.
What most people don't know was that in the final years of his rule, Saddam Hussein amalgamated radical Islam and secular Ba'athism into a new movement.

The Syrian Ba'ath party remained secular, but all the Iraqis who Assad took in were actually Jihadist Nazis.
These Iraqis became the military leaders of the Islamic States direct precursor, the Islamic Stat of Iraq (ISI), formed on October 13, 2006.

ISI itself was founded by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi in Afghanistan in May of 1999. The original name was Jamāʻat al-Tawḥīd wa-al-Jihād (JMT).
JMT ("The Organization of Monotheism and Jihad") was created in order to start a sectarian war between Sunni and Shia Muslims.

Osama bin Laden funded the training camp of JMT.

The reason JMT went Iraq was that the Iranians ALSO wanted to start a sectarian war.
The Iranians created death squads from the Badr Brigade that went to Iraq to hunt an exterminate former Saddam military officials.
Former US Army officials say that they detained Badr death squads, but the death squads were ordered released by American flag officers, who told them, "This stuff has to play itself out."

Americans also prevented the IRAQIS from stopping the death squads.
And that's how terrorists, Iran, and the US created the Iraqi Civil War, which cost the lives of 4400 Americans.

We eventually defeated ISI, but Obama pulled out our troops by December 2011.

By that time the Syrian Civil War was in full swing.
The Jihadists were ALREADY THERE, having ben brought in by BASHAR AL-ASSAD.

He allowed al-Qaeda to be in Syria, and he had given shelter to the military commanders of ISI.

The head of ISI was Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
In August of 2011, al-Baghdadi sent Syrian and Iraqi Jihadis into Syria to meet up with al-Qaeda. Together they formed Jabhat an-Nuṣrah li-Ahli ash-Shām (the al-Nusra Front), which became the most powerful Jihadist organization in Syria.
On April 8, 2013, al-Baghdai formed the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, ISI or the Islamic State.

Al-Sham is Syria.

So ASSAD started the Islamic State.

GUESS WHO THWARTED THE ENTIRE PLAN?

The people Tulsi Gabbard hates.

The Saudis.
The emir of the al-Nusra Front is Abu Mohammed al-Julani, a man with no background.

We captured him in Iraq and held him for three years but released him without explanation.

Here's what he looked like at the time.
He speaks classical Arabic with a Syrian accent.

Although he was said to be the Number Two of ISI, he was released by the US and Iraq.

He broke with the Islamic State immediately and spent most of his time from 2013 onward destroying JIHADIST organizations in Syria.
All the "experts" said he was simply consolidating power.

They forget what former Saudi National Security Advisor General Anwar Eshki (ret) said in 2015.

"We expect the Islamic State to gobble up like Pac-Man all the other Jihadist groups. That's when we'll destroy it."
REMEMBER:

The al-Nusra Front was originally PART OF THE ISLAMIC STATE.

The Saudis told us what they were going to do.

Mohammed al-Julani says that HTS will put down its arms and become a political party.

That means HTS as Jihadists will be "destroyed."
Al-Julani is a Saudi agent.

No doubt whatsoever.

Tulsi Gabbard is fit to shine Mohammed bin Salman's shoes.

I KNEW ALL OF THIS WOULD HAPPEN.

I've said ON THIS PLATFORM that everything changed in October of 2015.
When did Trump announce his presidential run?

June 16, 2015.

When did Trump begin working with the Saudis?

In 1980 AT THE LATEST.
As far as I know, I'm the only person in the western world who tried to find Trump's earliest connections to the House of Saud.

Tulsi Gabbard is an idiot.

A child.

God knows how many wars she would've started.

Trump is a peacemaker. He's a BUILDER.

They never destroy.
