Maybe Assad bought a “No-Fly Zone” waiver?
Well, duh.
Obama is bombing Lybia to help the Muslim Brotherhood.
Assad’s Ba’ath party is essentially a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood.
The primary goal of the MB is a Calphate and the destruction of Israel.
It’s not really a mystery.
And while we’re at it, what about Bahrain and Yemen? What the hell, let’s make the whole Mid-East a no-fly zone.
Why are those in Daraa so determined? There, Syrians watched as 15 children were arrested earlier this month simply for drawing graffiti on the wall of their school that said, “The people want to take down the regime.” The kids that did this were in the fourth grade. They had no idea that this tiny act of rebellion would lead to their arrest by the secret services—from their classrooms.
On Wednesday, they were released after more than two weeks of being detained. My friend who saw them told me, “It’s horrible. There were scars all over their bodies. And their nails were pulled from their hands.”

It's worth (potentially) the lives of our pilots and other military personnel involved, but it's not a vital interest? Even from this anti-American regime, I didn't expect a statement or a policy quite that absurd. My expectations for the Community-Organizer-in-Chief were extremely low, but his pathetic team of rookies has managed to under-perform even relative to that low standard - and done so by a dramatic margin.
{”All tyrants are equal but some tyrants are more equal than others”} With King OblahMao it’s tyrant du jour.
The difference is that Syria is clearly our enemy. Libya used to be, but in recent years, Gaddafi has turned to other amusements.
And let’s not forget Egypt. Obama played a big role in ousting Mubarak, who we had been paying a billion a year to make nice, ever since the days of Jimmy Carter. That’s a lot of money down the drain, now all for nothing.
The statement that we will NOT intervene in Syria is a huge scandal. Even if you are hesitant to intervene, Hilary and Obama basically srung the opposition up. WHY are we so clear that we won’t attack our enemy, Iran’s ally?
It’s outrageous. And we may be putting Al Queda in power in these other countries.
Liberals are very immoral and dangerous people.
The principle argument is insane.
If we are going to ‘protect civilians’, if that is the new mission of the United States military, then we must be at War with 3/4 of the world.
Who decides which “civilians” need protecting and which should be allowed to die?
Apparently the civilians in Iran, Yemen, and Syria don’t qualify for ‘protection’, but somehow the Libyans do?
Who is making these decisions?
