US Congresswoman Introduces Bill To Stop "Illegal" War On Assad; Says CIA Ops Must Stop

Last month, US Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard went on CNN and laid bare Washington’s Syria strategy.

In a remarkably candid interview with Wolf Blitzer, Gabbard calls Washington’s effort to oust Assad "counterproductive” and “illegal" before taking it a step further and accusing the CIA of arming the very same terrorists who The White House insists are "sworn enemies."

In short, Gabbard all but tells the American public that the government is lying to them and may end up inadvertently starting "World War III."

We knew Obama was using Isis, etc. in a proxy war against Assad. McStupid was pictured meeting with Isis operatives in Syria claiming they were freedom fighters against Assad.

It’s treason, for sure. And we have all that Christian blood on our hands... How evil can our government get?

It should stop IMMEDIATELY! They should not be shipping Isis into the US to protect them from the Russians.

Hope Trump sees this and mentions it.

This woman is a Democrat with an independent voice. Why are you blaming her for the actions of the Republican majority in supporting Obama’s Syria policy?

[Mrs. Don-o]

OK, got it.

Courageous Democrat from Hawaii there --- and I mean Congresswoman Gabbard!

[WilliamIII]

Are any Republicans speaking up? I haven’t them. Why are you criticizing this Democrat woman for telling the truth about Obama’s policy - and not criticizing the Republicans for saying nothing about Obama’s policy

Is party label the only thing that counts for you?

[amorphous]

Where is her bill to halt the “refugee” importation?

It would be kind of dumb to waste efforts / political capital on something someone else(s) already have in the pipeline, don't ya think?

House Passes Bill to Halt, Overhaul Syrian Refugee Process

[ground_fog]

Yes. I know it’s still the primaries but Hillary’s fingerprints are all over this invasion..all over it..she and Obama created this crisis even more so than Iraq with the removal of Ghadaffi. I want to see her get slammed harder for this

[WilliamIII]

Her bill should be supported by every Republican

Instead, they’re supporting Obama’s war on Assad, by their silence

But you criticize her, not them, simply because she’s a Democrat.

I have close friends of almost every nationality but none with ancestry from India. I have completed a number of business deals with them though. And doesn't one of the states have a governor who has roots in India?

You're in good company! :-)

[ground_fog]

Are there any patriots left at the CIA? Well I guess Brennen is a converted muslim. Trump or Cruz has a major cleaning ahead

[i_robot73]

Add it to the growing list; as much as Congress cares one whit anyway.

“In short, Gabbard all but tells the American public that the government is lying to them and may end up inadvertently starting “World War III.””

Inadvertently start? The correct word is Intentionally!

[ground_fog]

I sound more like Alex Jones everyday talking about the globalists. Your right!

[elpadre]

She is right. There must be a declaration of war to attack a sovereign nation. Has Obama ever gone to Congress for authority??

[TigersEye]

0bama doesn’t give a rat’s rear end about U.S. law so I don’t think he’ll sweat about UN rules.

[elpadre]

Maybe her Republican Dad has had an influence oh her. Maybe she is ready to leave the Dems. Maybe, maybe maybe!!!

[Fred Hayek]

I think it may be her military background as well.

Gov of South Carolina, Nicky Haley is of Indian ancestry.

[VitacoreVision]

I agree. I have no problem with Assad and Syria. Even Christians like his leadership.

....
Slyfox: Assad is not the enemy. Obama is the enemy.

[Safetgiver]

How can this be??? An intelligent, beautiful Liberal???

[PLMerite]

I’ll put my ballot in her box any time.
