This was a bad idea when Fiorina pushed it yesterday and its still a bad idea today. Is one worse than the other, though? Fiorina wants an NFZ to protect American-backed rebels from Putins bombs; Hillary wants one for humanitarian reasons, the same sort of thinking that produced the paradise you and I know as modern Libya.
Its worth risking a world war to help decide which barbarians ultimately prevail in Syria, no?
I personally would be advocating now for a no-fly zone and humanitarian corridors to try to stop the carnage on the ground and from the air, to try to provide some way to take stock of whats happening, to try to stem the flow of refugees, Clinton said in an interview with NBC affiliate WHDH in Boston after a campaign event nearby
White House Press Secretary Josh Ernest seemed to rule out the idea of a no-fly zone as recently as Tuesday. On the no-fly zone, our position on that hasnt changed, which is at this point thats not something that were considering, he told reporters during a gaggle aboard Air Force One. It raises a whole set of logistical questions about how exactly what would be enforced, what sort of resources would be used to actually protect that area. So thats why at this point weve indicated that thats not something that were considering right now.
Fiorinas plan is targeted. Putin can do what he wants so long as he doesnt mess with our guys on the ground. (Unless some of those guys defect to ISIS, I guess, in which case well be bombing them ourselves.)

Carly Fiorina: Its time for the U.S. to impose a no-fly zone around American-backed rebels in Syria
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3343627/posts
Carly will stand up at her next speech and ask for silence. “Can you hear it? Is there an echo in this auditorium? A slightly distorted ‘echo’ that sounds a lot like Mrs. Clinton on a bad day?
Well, I hear it too.”
I’d like to know how they propose to impose a no-fly zone now that the Russians are already there. Are they suggesting we start shooting down Russian aircraft, because that’s the only way to impose it now.
Idiots.
No-fly zone?
That would require the UN to pass such a resolution.
Currently, al-Assad has invited Russian military in to Syria.
If the UN now tries to enforce a no-fly resolution, Assad and Putin could claim national sovereignty.
It is too late now, politicians. That action should have been made long ago, but the leader-from-behind didn’t seek such a resolution.
Stupid bimbo. What will she do for her second act after Russian planes ignore this ‘no-fly’ zone and there are direct hostilities between the US and Russia?
Hillary Clinton told an AP reporter Friday if Russian continues its airstrikes in Syria, the U.S. should nuke the Russian Embassy in Washington.
The no-fly zone idea is dangerous and unworkable. Now that the Russians are there, we should coordinate with them or stand down. Our policy in Syria has been a disaster and saving the Assad regime is the best of the bad choices available to us now. However we might feel about Putin, he’s been invited in by the lawful government of Syria and is within his rights under international law. Obama dug us a big hole there and it’s time we stopped digging.
The terrorists don’t have an air force.
Whose side are these people on?
Your comment was posted 23 seconds before mine of a similar assertion.
But I had more carriage returns.
:)
"..ahhhhhhhh, wats up Doc?"
Unless, of course, Russia gives the Clinton Foundation a $10 million donation. Then she wouldn’t.
Well stated!
Someone should ask Carly to name the good guys and what they believe in
They are ALL murdering people of other religions , tribes , and villages
How does this give some selected islmist butchers but not others the right to be shielded by our morality?
Oh wait we have no morality when our pentagon huddles in plans to protect Al Qaeda in Syria and similar groups from Russian bombings because they are not “ ISIS”
Link or you stink
Seriously? So, you think it’s a good idea to start a shooting war with the Russians?
Link or you stink
It's real, trust me.
