I saw something earlier in the week, I think from HRC, about arming the resistance in Syria. I thought that was a knee-slapper. We’d be paying to arm the civilian population of another country, while our own leaders are trying to disarm us.

Exactly !

Country A working to foment a revolution in country B...

Well, if it’s a righteous revolution, that’s a good thing. Resisting tryanny, overthrowing the tyrant, establishing a government that rules righteously. Sounds good.

But if the revolution is made up of a bunch of thieves, murderers, etc., that’s not a good thing.

Seems like today the American and European general public is being asked - by the news media - to believe that every revolution is a good thing, without regards to the details or the truth, and that every revolution merits outside participation and the cost of our blood and treasure.
