" I am sure that the US is signatory to treaties requiring us to join to chastise nations who use chemical weapons. This has been international law since WWI."

I believe that is true, also. Too early to go looking for the "treaty". Do you have the citation handy?

Another poster mentioned the treaty specifically by name, so that should do for a search term. I did a quick search and will post active links in a followup.

Radio talk show host Tom Sullivan calls politicians “The C- students.” For years I’ve thought that that was the best description of the political “elites.” Lololol..... The ones I’ve met certainly fit that mold!

“C- Students?” I think Mr. Sullivan is being kind, LOL.

So the US will never go to war? You know the Congress doesn’t have one scrotum between them to do so.

Considering my nephew is a Captain in the 101st and I served myself during the Cold War, I would like to think I know what the cost is. In truth, the war is against Islam and the grandchildren I don’t even have will be fighting them in a forever war.
