“Why in the world we would be willing to sacrifice even one of our sons or daughters who will be sent over [to Syria]?” asked Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin during a Tuesday interview with SiriusXM host Rebecca Mansour for Breitbart News Tonight.
“It really makes me nervous that there seems to be some enthusiasm for the U.S. to interject ourselves again in a foreign country’s battles when no one has articulated yet what our interest is there,” Palin said. “We should have learned our lesson with Iraq and Afghanistan. I look at it as the blood, the sweat, the toil that has been spent on our end when you can’t really see what the gain is in a lot of respects. We just can’t allow ourselves get back in that mode with Syria.”

It is good to hear from Palin again.
Agree. Once again Palin exhibits the sort of common sense completely absent among her “betters” in the Swamp.
Other than possibly hurting one of Israel’s enemies, what the heck business is it of America’s, to waste young men and women in a place that will not be the least bit grateful, because we are part of the infidel world.
This just screams big mistake. Sarah is absolutely right. If Hiward Dean is pushing it how much more reason do you need to stay the hell out of there.
Agree with her 100%.
Yep. We have no national interest in getting involved in Syria more than we already are. If anything we should be pulling out. If Assad gases his people......sorry. The world is often an ugly place. That’s not our problem.
Who cares about the Middle East. The whole region should have been nuked after 9/11.
The US has sacrificed enough of our time, talent, and treasure in the Middle East—No more!
Let them destroy one another, and let God sort them out.
What folks don’t realize is we could be replacing one enemy of Israel, with a greater one.
America will lead allies to attack those killing their own people with gas. Leadership has been absent for many years.
She is purposely muddying the water when discussin dead troops That is an entirely different matter. That boils down to does the usa have a strategic interest in winning the area east of the euphrates by cooperating with allies in that region?.
BTW....... Sarah isn’t
And except for with McCain and immigration, she has almost always been right, too!
I couldn’t agree more but the Deep State is balls to the wall in it’s plan for a war with Russia.
It might be wise for everyone to contact Trump WH and let him know how we feel about NO war with Syria, at t his time!
I’m for bombing the hell out of the place and that’s it. Do it from ships and get the hell out.
Amen. Sarah gets it right, as usual. Love this woman. Wish she was our first woman president!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you think the US Military is going to SKYPE with the allies over there? The US already has personnel there. Dying there. And from the sound of it, on the wrong side. Assad protects Christians; Taliban, Al Qaeda, not so much.
I wonder if she feels the same way about fighting ISIS in Syria, Everyone knows, Syria and Russia did almost nothing to ISIS, outside of places like Palmyra where they lost it to have to regain it.
The effort is to restore lands to Kurds and Sunni’s in Iraq and Syria.
That is, to eliminate the false boundaries established way back in 1918 by French and Brit diplomats intent on carving up the defeated Ottoman empire
