U.S. Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said on Sunday the Middle East would be more stable if Muammar Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein were still in power in Libya and Iraq, saying it’s “not even a contest”.

Trump mentioned the countries in comparison to current efforts to drive Syrian President Bashar al-Assad out of power.

“You can make the case, if you look at Libya, look at what we did there, it’s a mess,” Trump said on NBC.

“If you look at Saddam Hussein with Iraq, look what we did there, it’s a mess. It’s going to be the same thing” in Syria, he said.

Asked by NBC’s Chuck Todd if the Middle East would be more stable with Gaddafi and Saddam in power, Trump replied, “Of course it would be.”

Trump, who leads the field of Republicans seeking the presidency in the November 2016 election in public opinion polls, has said he supports Russian efforts to fight Islamic State militants, even though Russia has backed Assad.

Trump said last week Assad might be replaced by someone worse if he were ousted.

The White House opposes both Islamic State and Assad, blaming him for attacks on civilians that have radicalized the opposition. President Barack Obama warned Russia on Friday that its campaign in Syria would pull Moscow into a “quagmire”.

  1. I say that I must agree on on Donald Trumps statement that Middl East would have been more
    stable with Muammar Gaddafi and Sadam Husseins as rolers of their countrie Libia and Irak today.
    But I don´t think the zionist agenda and its jewish elit will agree on that. So if Trump will continue to say these things I think he will soon be out of the game to be voted in as president of the USA in 2016.

  2. Trump is absolutely correct.
    He opposed Iraq War 2. Opposed various trade deals, and does not want war with Russia.

    Yes he is in with the Jews,but being ‘ in’, is never enough.
    You must be 100 % on board…a total pandering ,slobbering fool to them.
    Nothing else will do.

    Trump is off the reservation on many issues to them…bring ” pro Israel ” he certain!y is…but in a ” Obama ” kind of way, and they dont like that.

    King of the Neoconservatives …now just ” Conservatives” ,as the entire GOP/Right is now Kosher; William Krystel is totally opposing Trump,and Rothschild’s FOX.
    Their is a message in this!
    The media is trying to say he is ” going down “,and ” lloosing momentum”… This is an old mob creation technique,or push polling.

    Krystel even has a fantasy that Dick Cheney should run….even as an independent if Trump is nominated.

    I hate the modern Jew GOP,and dont trust the scared Democrats.

    But when Trump speaks like this, I cannot help to like,and support him with with qualifications.He is defacto Buchanan/Nixonesque on some outlooks…a throw back to a sane GOP.

    I must admit,be is the best on some issues among them all.

    The Jews very obviously dont want him.
    They are now banking on Sephardic Marrano Mark Rubio,as Bush fades.

    Let Trump go…despite his flaws ,he is says some good things ,not heard from any on either side.

    Does he know the consequences of his words ?
    That is the question.

  3. I decided a while back I would not vote for him after his attacks on the Iran deal, but I will keep listening to see if he changes his mind on that. He has a mind of his own. He’s an independent thinker. Despite having his daughter convert to Judaism (this should be a crime) and a Jewish son in law, most of his positions are opposed by Jews, whereas the rest of the politicians all do exactly what the Jews want. It would be ironic if he took a stand against Israel too.

  4. Claes Lantz, he is not IN the game, he is only a hired foil to ensure that republicans repelled by his histrionics, and even democrats either disgusted by Hillary or not trusting “socialist” Bernie Sanders will all flock to Bush. He is not saying anything that’s not scripted for him. His anti-immigration chant is not that of a patriot but of an opportunist who knows populism draws crowds. His statements against the wars on Iraq, Libya and Syria are similar to those of any Leftist Jew: he never calls them wars for Greater Israel, which is what they are, but “mistakes” of the US

    Unlike Dante, I think Trump is as much like Buchanan as a rat is to a stag. Trump kosherized his own family for profit and never stops kissing Netanyahu’s behind. Buchanan was the first prominent voice to say years ago that the US Congress is “Occupied Territory.”
    Trump is a side show, as phony as the name “Trump” on buildings he does not own but for which he receives a stipend for name use.

  5. The Donald is absolutely right! No one else in the Klown Kar would dare say this. I hope he’s wearing his Kevlar undies.

  6. Donald Trump sometimes make think that he is right. But, does he really mean what he says? Watch: Brother Nathanael “TRUMP’S DECK OF JEWISH CARDS”. on You Tube.
