If you can’t see the difference of our nation being attacked on it’s own land...9/11..under the Bush Administration.....
....and the dingbat we have now going into countries we are not at war with.... Then how do you expect to understand anything about the situation now..and or later?

I understand the situation perfectly. It could be argued that our initial response in Afghanistan was justified. However, since we have no vital interest in Afghanistan and have announced that we’re leaving in 2014, the continued loss of American lives is pointless.
Attacking Iraq over WMD that were not used against us and have never been found is highly questionable.
Regarding Syria, the only thing that is clear is that all players in the conflict are bad guys. Sending arms to the Al Qaeda-affiliated rebels that may in future be used against us as a response to alleged WMD use is foolish, particularly when siding with the rebels puts us in conflict with Russia and China. There are other responses (e.g. economic sanctions, pressure on trading partners,etc.).
The main point of my previous post was that the use of WMD is an excuse for Obama to get involved in the “Arab Spring” of yet another country. I mentioned Bush because he also used the same questionable excuse to invade Iraq.
