The meeting in Turkey between #Putin, #Erdogan & #Rouhani was a bad thing
They were planning how to carve up #Syria among other things

He didn't say "So do whatever you want"

@realDonaldTrump should swap the names and give this exact same speech

The short term question is:
What Syrian assets turn into smoking rubble over the chemical attack?
TBD
The mid term question is:
How do we get to a smart end game in #Syria?
That answer is here
