The front-runner to replace House Speaker John Boehner says the United States should work with its allies to set up a no-fly zone in northern Syria in the campaign against Islamic State militants.

Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy also said Monday that the U.S. should consider putting some special forces on the ground in Iraq to help in directing more effective airstrikes against the militants.

This idiocy must have something to do with congress’s desire to bust the sequester caps.

Wow.
Both sides, Democrats and ‘Pubbies, have gone completely nuts.
The only “no-fly” zone we might need is in Iraq - against the Turks.

No-Fly for whom? The Ruskies? or the US? Nobody else has planes. Assad now has missiles that can knock down any plane.

By all means, let’s get into a shooting war with Russia over Syria.

Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy

Yet they install another business as usual political fraud. McCarthy is an arrogant foul piece of work who's as trustworthy as a rattlesnake.

QUESTION

Why would the US have the right to establish no-fly zones in another country that we are not at war with?

Methinks this is an attempt to give safe zones for ISIS - protection from Russian bombings.

Rather like our ‘gun-free’ zones that the shooters use - like the last one. One man, who had a carry permit but didn’t have his weapon on him BECAUSE OF the gun-free zone - took 5 bullets trying to stop the shooter. If he had his weapon - probably no more than one person would have died - well, the perp would have - early on.

NO news stories on this aspect- )
