Putin is on the move. Russia has now launched its own airstrikes over Homs, Syria, where the Free Syrian Army is located (not ISIS), after demanding that America vacate its aircraft from the Syrian airspace.

Here's the deal. Our country is crumbling and falling apart. We've spent trillions of dollars we didn't have, lost thousands of lives, damaged the lives of tens of thousands of others fighting wars in the Middle East. The result is chaos and fanaticism everywhere, not the liberty and prosperity we had hoped to give the people of the Middle East.

It's time for American troops to come home. Pursuing a regime change in Syria was not a goal of the American People. It was the goal of someone in our government. Let Russia restore order in Syria. Bring our troops and resources home. Stop spending money there achieving nothing that is in our national interest. Make friends with Russia, build good mutually beneficial relationships, and let Russia do what it feels it needs to do in Syria which has been requested by Assad who is the legitimate leader of the still legitimate government of Syria.

We want countries to respect our borders, to respect our sovereignty, to respect our government. Well, that starts with our respecting the borders, sovereignty and governments of other nations.

The Russian airstrikes in Syria were requested by Syria to help them restore order so all these refugees can return to their homes, whether they want to or not. It's their country, that's where they belong, and that's where they need to go and stay.

Let Russia handle it. We've been in the Middle East fighting for 13 years with no end game, no stability, no order, no peace, no result worth even a tiny portion of the money and lives we've expended.

Russian airstrikes in Syria 'OK' with Trump

New York, New York (CNN)If Vladimir Putin wants to launch airstrikes inside Syria, that's no problem for Donald Trump, who said Wednesday that he believes Russia's military moves in Syria are targeting ISIS and that the United States shouldn't interfere.

"They don't respect our president. They really don't respect us anymore. And that's why they're doing this," Trump told CNN's Don Lemon in a wide-ranging interview at Trump Tower Wednesday. "At the same time, if they want to hit ISIS, that's OK with me."

Trump's remarks came in response to the latest escalation of tensions in the Middle East, where Russia launched its first airstrikes in Syria. Moscow claims the target is ISIS.

However, top U.S. officials have raised questions about the real motivations behind the strikes. U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter said it appeared they were "in areas where there probably were not ISIL forces."

"The result of this kind of action will inevitably, simply be to inflame the civil war in Syria," Carter said.

Trump told CNN Wednesday that he tends to believe Russia's goal is to go after ISIS and that the U.S. shouldn't strive to be the "policemen of the world."

"I hear they are hitting both," said Trump, apparently referring to ISIS and non-ISIS Syrian opposition forces.

"If Russia wants to go in and if Russia want to fight -- in particular ISIS, and they do and one of the reasons they do is because they don't want ISIS coming into their country and that's going to be the next step. So that's why they're there," Trump said. "I think they will be fighting ISIS."

He called Syrian President Bashar al-Assad a "bad guy" who has killed hundreds of thousands of people, and that Russia is "probably trying to prop up Assad and help him out."

"We always give weapons, we give billions of dollars in weapons and then they turn them against us. We have no control. So we don't know the other people that we're supposed to be backing," Trump said of U.S. involvement in the region. "We don't even know who we are backing."

The turmoil on the other side of the world has triggered a refugee crisis, with thousands fleeing violence in countries like Syria and Iraq.

Obama said the United States will accept at least 10,000 Syrian refugees into the country next year -- a number that some Democrats and humanitarian groups have said it much too low. The Obama administration recently said the total number will be increased to 85,000 in 2016 and 100,000 in 2017.

Many Republicans, including Trump, are critical of the decision to accept refugees from the region at all, arguing the process could be exploited by terrorists attempting to travel to the U.S. to do harm.

Trump on Wednesday went one step beyond that. He told CNN the U.S. shouldn't accept people that "may be ISIS," and vowed that as president, he would expel the refugees let in by the Obama administration.

"We have no idea who they are. We have no idea where they come from. And I'm just telling you right now, they may come in, through the weakness of Obama, but they're going out if I become president," Trump said. "They will not stay here. They are going back to Syria, whether it's safe zones or whatever."

In his first months as a presidential candidate, Trump has discussed foreign policy in largely sweeping terms. The campaign has yet to release anything formal on how Trump would handle national security issues or what kind of commander-in-chief he would strive to be.

Pressed repeatedly about his lack of foreign policy proposals, Trump said it's important to be "unpredictable."

"I don't like talking so specific -- I'm going to do this, I'm going to do that, like a fool," he said. "I want to be unpredictable."

Trumps right. Airstrikes OK.

If anyone in our government watched television and saw these masses of emigrants, they would know there is no time to waste and that's why Russia has responded so quickly, that and to contain the element of surprise.

They can't prop up government forces without removing the rebels from the fray which is why they attacked some of these positions first because they're so close to government forces and were controlling roads and so forth more or less trapping Assad's forces from being able to go out and attack both the rebels and ISIS whose strongholds are much farther away.

Afghan forces have retaken the city center of Kunduz, the city seized by the Taliban this week in a stunning setback to the Western-backed government, Afghan officials said.

Heavy fighting was reported overnight and sporadic gunfire was heard in the northern Afghanistan city early Thursday, a resident said.

Afghan forces, supported by U.S. airstrikes,launched an offensive to recapture the city after it became the first city seized by the Taliban in 14 years.

"The enemy did resist in outskirts of the city and sustained very heavy casualties, but the city center was cleared without much resistance," Afghan ministry of interior spokesperson Sediq Sediqqi told NBC News.

"A massive search and clear operation is underway in all Kunduz city right now and there are pockets of resistance in the outskirts of the city," Sediqqi said.

The Afghan ministry of defense said in a statement Thursday that 150 enemy forces were killed and over 90 injured. It claimed there had been no reports of civilian casualties.

The defense ministry said the attack to retake Kunduz began at 10 p.m. local time Wednesday and at 7 a.m. Thursday Afghan forces recaptured a fort that fell to the Taliban Wednesday.

U.S. forces launched airstrikes during the counterattack and a "limited number of coalition forces" were on the ground advising Afghan forces, a coalition spokesman has said.

The Taliban seized part of Kunduz on Monday, and the last Afghan government-held outpost fell to the insurgent fighters on Wednesday.

More than 60 Afghan soldiers surrendered to the militants when the city's fort fell, according to one army officer who managed to flee with about 40 of his men.

By Thursday morning government troops were taking down Taliban flags and searching homes, said Ghulam Shah, who lives in the city center.

"They [government troops] told us to rest assured the city is cleared of Taliban," Shah said. "...As I was walking back, saw a large number of Taliban bodies on a national army truck."

"Right now the city is calm, but sporadic gun fire can be heard. But we still can hear heavy fighting and explosions in the distance outside the city," Shah said.

Kunduz is a city of about 300,000 about 150 miles north of the Afghan capital of Kabul. It was one of the last strongholds maintained by the Islamist militant group before being driven from power in a 2001 U.S.-led campaign.
