Did the President order anyone to kill civilians, did he order the destruction, did he order supporting terrorism in his country? Of course not.

We have to be there to get the evidence like what happened in Aleppo when we had evidence. And because the United States didn't send the team, we sent the evidence to the Russians.

We have hopes that we can see rational American presidents; fair, obey the international law, deal with other countries according to mutual respect, parity, etc., but we all know that this is only wishful thinking and fantasy.

We have the precedent of Collin Powell ten years ago, when he showed the evidence, it was false, and it was forged.

If there is any change regarding that hope, we should ask the Syrian people, not anyone else in the world.

Fighting the terrorists in Syria is not only in the interest of Syria or the Syrian people; in the interest of the Middle East, of Europe itself - something that many officials in the West don't see or don't realize or don't acknowledge - and in the interest of the Russian people, because they have been facing terrorists for decades now.

We cannot use jihadists because it's like shooting yourself in the foot.
