Secretary of State John Kerry revealed that Arab countries were offering to bear all the financial costs of unseating President Assad if the United States took the lead on military action during Wednesday’s House hearing on the Obama Administration’s proposal for Syrian intervention.

So it IS regime change after all, not just lobbing a message on the tip of a Tomahawk. THEN WHY CAN'T THEY BE HONEST ABOUT IT???

I don’t see any Arab League Nations contributing any military forces to solve this on their own. If they don’t give soldiers and equipment, then we shouldn’t even do anything at all.

Seems someone in the Bush Admin said a similar thing once. Didn’t pan out.

How much more disgraceful can it get. The U.S. has now become the prostitute for the Saudi pimps. The House of Saud surreptitiously funded and created the clown in the WH and continues to pull the puppet’s strings. We now know for whon we are risking the lives of our sons and daughters.

Double the costs for the A rabs.

Cool. So, like our military are mercenaries for the Arab countries.

Yes. The Saudi Prince tried to give the troops 10 G a piece-a little known incident.

Bush turned them down flat.

We are not mercenaries.

Geeze, what are these guys making it up as they go along?

They never read the Constitution.

They think our country is a corporation.

And just SHAME on ALL the Senators who approved this foreign creature for approval to the Sec of State.

Now I’ll read the posts

If it’s blood for bucks I’m surprised Putin isn’t trying to get in on the action.

THIS IS HOW DEEP THE CESSPOOL IS NOW:

The biggest surprise came late into the hearing, when Secretary Kerry revealed that Arab countries have offered to burden the financial costs of unseating President Assad if the United States handles the military action. This information contracts his previous statements that assured discussions of escalating military action in Syria were off limits:

“In fact, some of them have said that if the United States is prepared to go do the whole thing the way we’ve done it previously in other places, they’ll carry that cost,” Kerry said.

“That’s how dedicated they are at this. That’s not in the cards, and nobody’s talking about it, but they’re talking in serious ways about getting this done.”

Do not believe SOS Kerry. The Arabs WILL leave the USA “holding the bag”.
