JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: "REFUGEE SAFE ZONES" HAS A NICE RING TO IT - BUT THE OUTCOME COULD WELL BE LESS THAN NICE - ON "GOING IT ALONE" IN PLACES LIKE SYRIA


COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN STILL REPORT


“Trump Sets Up 6 Refugee Safe Zones in One Day”

The problems here are at least two.

One, the US has no business doing things in Syria without approval from the Syrian government.

Two, these "safe zones," decided without conferring with Russia, have the awful potential of becoming gathering and regrouping places for the various terrorist groups.

You really can't pull "go it alone" surprises on the other parties involved unless you are returning to discredited Obama policies.
