“There was that sense of sacred obligation that, frankly, we have lost during these last two wars,” Obama said. “I want to restore that.” It’s also important that a president speaks to military service as an OBLIGATION not just of some, but of many.”, Barack Hussein Obama Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm

This is beween the Russians, Syrians and Iranians on one hand and Saudi Arabia on the other. The Saudi’s are doing their damnedest to drag us into it. We still haven’t cleaned up the mess in Afghanistan, Iraq or Libya. We don’t need another.

We really don’t want to provide a provocation for Putin to use to distract the Russian people. We would do a Putin a huge favor. We don’t want to do that. We’re setting off another arms race.

To go along with bungling us into a depression, now the Obama Administration is intent on bungling us into a war too?

At its core, Syria is in a Shiite/Sunni civil war, with Assad heading the Shiite side with support from Shiite Iran, and the Sunni side being headed by the Muslim Brotherhood and al Queda.

We need to stay out of it, no matter how much the Saudis (and their EU proxies) want us in.

There will be no war. We need Russia in order to keep our forces babysitting the boy rapists in Afghanistan.

We should pull out of that morass to take out Iran. Syria is a sideshow.

first time Russia has directly fingered the United States.

I'm sure Hillary enjoyed that.
