America’s Abject Failure in Syria

America’s decision to allow Russia to oversee the dismantling of Syria’s chemical weapons has failed, like so many of the previous administration’s Middle Eastern peace initiatives.
 

Listen to the April 6 Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

On Tuesday, Syrian President Bashar Assad used chemical weapons against his own people. Around 80 people died, many foaming at the mouth and writhing with muscle spasms—the symptoms of sarin nerve gas. Assad was supposed to have given up all his chemical weapons; clearly he has not. America’s decision to allow Russia to oversee the dismantling of Syria’s chemical weapons has failed, like so many of the previous administration’s Middle Eastern peace initiatives. And once again, Assad is gassing his own people. Trumpet contributing editor Richard Palmer examines this abject failure. He also discusses how a change in course by the Trumpet administration could bring a longtime Trumpet forecast to completion. Also on today’s program, Donald Trump’s meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping and the long-term fate of U.S.-China relations.
