Teaching your kids to hate
Just another day in the middle east
Wonder if Brett, will rush his fair haired boy to a recruiting station when it kicks off? Probably not.
If Brett wishes to be the real war-dad, why isn’t he rushing to join the Israeli Defense Force?
He wants to “do something about it”, by sending a U.S. military type, as “his proxy”. No guts, no glory.
I wonder how much he will pay somebody to be “the proxy” for his son?
Syria is perplexing. On this consrvative site most people are against us getting involved, and on the liberal sites I frequent, the attitude is the same.
So, who, exactly, is the constituency our FedGov is representing when they insist on staying involved?
Or is this just a matter of strategic thinking, and making sure that Russia does not become the main mover/shaker in the region. i.e. is this really about a subtle cold war with Russia, and Syria is just the current battleground?
ISIS was a small threat that had to be destroyed before it metastasized into a big threat.
Syrians killing Syrians with whatever comes to hand, for whatever stupid reasons, is none of our business. They are all bad guys there. Pull out, and let the Syrians have a go at each other (with Russian help).
We are not going to be fooled again.
Somebody tell Brett it’s now looking like Assad didn’t do the gas attack.
The neo-cons would like for the US to get into a full pledge war in Syria with Russia and remove Assad. Bush 43 and neocons got us into a war in Iraq and Afghanistan look at how that turned out Iran has control all the way to Syria. Afghanistan we gained nothing.Once we removed Saddam Hussein there was nothing to stop Iran. Name one time post Kora that we got in involved and things turned out to our benefit. Get those war drums up an going. Maybe we can find those weapons of mass destruction we could not find in Iraq in Syria.
For the life of me I can’t think of one reason why Assad would think that using chemical weapons would work to his advantage.
Its Soros and his international banker buddies behind this. They want war and high gas prices. None of this will work to the advantage of Assad.
