Question for John McCain, Ben Carson, Hillary, etc. (vanity)
me

Many folks have been saying that the U.S. should establish a no-fly zone in Syria, and shoot down any Russian plane that violates that zone.

Now Fox News is reporting that French planes have joined Russian planes in the attack on ISIS. Suppose John, Ben, and Hillary had their way. Would the U.S. have to also shoot down any French plane that violated the zone?

It's all so confusing. I wish John, Ben, and Hillary would explain this no-fly thing in detail. Or better yet, maybe all three should just shut up about it.

According to the Obama-Putin Iran deal the US would be required to shoot down Israeli planes.

Trump: Iran Deal Requires U.S. Protecting Iran in Event of Israeli Strike

by Jacob Kornbluh
Sept 2, 2015

In a phone interview with CNN Tuesday evening, Trump claimed that there's "something in the Iran deal" that "people don't understand" saying if someone attacks Iran, "we have to come to their defense."

"Does that include Israel?" Trump asked. "And most people say yes, they don't have an exclusion for Israel. So if Israel attacks Iran, according to that deal, I believe, the way it reads, unless they have a codicil or they have something to it, that we have to fight with Iran against Israel." ..."

Trump was most probably referring to language highlighted by the opponents of the deal. On page 142, the deal includes a clause that states, "Co-operation through training and workshops to strengthen Iran's ability to protect against, and respond to nuclear security threats, including sabotage, as well as to enable effective and sustainable nuclear security and physical protection systems."

Washington-based Center for Security Policy asserted that Annex III appears "to commit the United States and other world powers to the defense of Iran's nuclear program."

You're right, I forgot about that. Yet another example of how reality in Obama's America is odder then even my attempts at sarcasm.

But Obama would, if he could somehow get away with it.

Saw that, and I couldn't help but wonder while watching it: Why aren't you doing something about it?

Then I realized she was a dim and understood - actually doing something would be racist since Obama's half black.

Well, she’s right about one thing — ARM THE KURDS. Heavily and directly — and recognize Kurdistan.
