Funny how this “revolution” was started even though 86 percent of Syrians, including many Christians, were just fine with Assad.

I hear Christians were relatively left alone under Assad.

I KNOW he’s a bad man with ties to terror and iran.

We fixed Qaddafi’s wagon and changed his evil ways (even if only out of fear) until hillary came, saw and killed.

Syria’s pretty the last item of evidence needs to prove that you need a vicious strongman to keep people somewhat civilized in the middle east. The moment Assad control slipped they started mass murdering Christians and other minority populations.

I wish my Government was not on the wrong side in this “revolution”. Oh, wait, my Government is the entity behind it.

I know this will sound of convoluted thinking,but more people die by the act of removal of the dictators in the Mideast than if they were left in place. I don’t have to mention American dead and maimed plus cost in trillions with a military at the point of exhaustion. I don’t condone their butchery and terror but can we say the Mideast is better off now than before the invasion of Iraq? It is also naive to think any Mideast country will go the way of Germany and Japan after WWII,let alone adopting anything close to democracy. On the contrary,the fight is now who will control theocracies and by what sect of Islam. What exactly are we doing there as we are at the cusp of fighting a war in the Pacific?
