of the 800 that have been set free in Syria, I'm sure caught them as well.
I don't believe they even caught him. Everything we are seeing is being manipulated by the Trump regime, even the stock market. He thinks it will make him look like a hero, so he order them to say it.🙄
I realize how cynical I sound.
