    Sanctions are stupid. I never like sanctions. I think they are counterproductive in the long run.

    I'm talking current day, but also, boiling that down to the sanctions isn't really accurate. That situation has no comparison to Syria or Russia or North Korea or anywhere else.

    I didn’t say it boiled it down to sanctions but rather disputed your claim that sanctions are “stupid” or that they’re “counterproductive.” I’d also argue that they should be given a go before the alternative.

    Yes, sanctions against nations in response to tyrants are very stupid and countereproductive and are not better than alternatives because they will work to make the issues worse. Sanctions validate dictators, they strengthen their position in a tyrannical government, they bolster their goals as dictators, and they tend to help rally domestic support for said dictatorial government. They lead to more suffering among the nation's citizens, further solidifying a tyrant's position.

    Judging by how few posts have been made in this thread in the past couple of days, and how many are in the Syria threads, it looks like this distraction is working pretty well, lol. Trump must be thrilled!
    i would hardly call a government using chemical weapons on their own people a distraction.  more like an evil act that needed a response.
    Er, tthe bombing of Syria is the distraction, not the use of chemical weapons by Assad. Military action is pretty well known to be used as a distraction... And it works, and you've just proven it. That doesn't mean that the action doesn't have a major impact, but that does not diminish the fact that leaders who are in trouble often use military actions to distract voters from the shit that have them in trouble.
    And HAHAHAHHAHAHA re an evil act that needed a response. As if Trump gives a flying fuck about acts of evil. The US government loves to pretend that this shit is about them caring about people, but that is never the case.
    so nothing should have been done about Syria using chemical weapons on their own people?

    So, do nothing and then drop bombs? Or just go straight to dropping bombs? Or just do nothing? How about sanctions against individuals within tyrannical governments? Also stupid and counterproductive?

    Honestly, intelligent people can manage multiple issues happening at the same time. It's just that he now isn't the only story and actually draws more attention to him in a different way, that some find worse and others are indifferent to. This thread is usually pretty lame anyway when it comes to content.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    President Trump on Monday put the brakes on a preliminary plan to impose additional economic sanctions on Russia.

    Asked Monday morning why it had taken 24 hours for the administration to walk back Nikki Haley’s comments, one White House official said only that there had been confusion internally about what the plan was.

    WOW

    I watched it and for the most part Comey was very un-Trump-like; his replies were measured and not full of silly accusations and stupid insults.  I'd guess he went easy on Trump, as he was making an effort to not be alarming.  The one thing I did not like was the hair, long tie, etc.  This was in response to something like "what was your early impression of him?"  I was ready for "high-strung," narcissistic," or "paronoid."  I was really disappointed to hear "well that hair is all his, the tie is too long" (and whatever else he said).
