Many of us in the opposition are not isolationists. We are simply against an intervention that would help Al Qaida, the greater evil, when there is no proof that the Syrian government, the lesser evil, did the gassing. As for helping the Free Syrian Army, our efforts to help them are likely to end-up like our efforts to help the South Vietnam, Cambodia, and Afghanistan.
and that is because we never FINISH a war like we did with WWII...we “leave and call it peace.”—Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq...etc.
