Her “being right” is the least of the issues here. Hell, everyone with a semi-functioning brain has been screaming about the stupidity in getting involved in the Syrian and Libyan civil wars (as well as many more issues in the area)!
However, the media (who REFUSED to hold Obama to any kind of standard or account) simply ignored everyone screaming about his stupid moves (he started more wars than Bush, but the media never mentioned it - NOT ONCE! Then the media used John McCain as some kind of SAINT, because he agreed with Obama’s stupid plans!
The real issue is that Obama gave every Islamic country in the region as much money and U.S. military weapons and technology he could get to them! And John “I was a POW, but I have never found a war I didn’t want to send Americans to die in” McCain helped him, because he was making money from the Military Industrial Complex and getting adoring accolades from the media!
The U.S. should have left Syria and Libya (as well as several other countries in that area) the HELL ALONE and let them kill as many of their own as they saw fit - it would be less idiots we are going to need to kill when they finally get started with their stupid jihad!
The whole reason the media is torching Gabbard is because to admit she is right would be another nail in Obama’s legacy coffin - and it would SHOW that the media refused to and failed to hold Obama to any kind of standard! The U.S. EXTENDED involvement in the middle east was SOLIDIFIED by Obama - ON PURPOSE!
Thankfully President Trump didn’t get conned into a war with Iran. Instead he’s squeezing them economically - and far more effectively imho
