Buchanan on Syria: McCain, Graham, Rubio Are Not Going to Get ‘the War They Want’ (VIDEO)
Breitbart ^ | 4/10/2017 | Jeff Poor

Monday on Laura Ingraham’s nationally syndicated radio show, conservative commentator Pat Buchanan discussed the possibility of the United States escalating its involvement in the Syrian civil war days after President Donald Trump launched a military strike on a Syrian airbase in responding to the Syrian government’s alleged use of chemical weapons.

Buchanan noted the biggest cheerleaders of Trump’s action were Sens. John McCain (R-AZ), Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Marco Rubio (R-FL), which he deemed to be “the war party.” However, argued that they would not “get the war they want” from Trump.

“It’s McCain and Graham and Marco Rubio — the war party,” Buchanan said. “But let me say this, Laura — my view is they’re not going to get the war they want.

Pat’s well meaning. He cares about people. Sadly, he lost an uncle in Buchenwald. Poor chap fell out of the tower and broke his neck. It’s always been hard for him to forgive the Jews.

Buchanan is a Nazi symathizer right el hombre?

It’s fascinating watching you never Trump people throw your 24/7 tantrums. Just like the leftist/globalist. Amazing.

You're worried about Ratheon and McCain making some $ of a few Tomahawks?

The establishment con-servatives never seemed to have a problem with Boosh spending multiple trillions on a 10 year long compassionate wars, which totally destabilized the entire region and looted the American Treasure.

Very odd

The one thing I disliked about the Syrian strike was that McCain and Graham agreed with it.

...The glee and lust for more from the war party has been very discouraging the last few days.

Today I heard Lindsey Graham ranting about his war fantasies and threatening Russian planes if they don't stay out of the way. It's insanity. And he's far from alone.

We mock crazy Muslims & their "72 virgins in Heaven" or whatever it is. But what kind of demented death cult wants to risk war with Russia over Syria? Or Ukraine? That's what these neocons are - a cult who longs for bloodshed and death.

He used to spend a lot of time claiming every Nazi guard on the run was an innocent man. He’s very anti-Israel, as are some of the putinistas. He was a solid anti-communist, but doesn’t particularly care about other forms of tyranny. He blamed Poland for WWII in one of his books, but did say Hitler was unforgivable and not a good guy. I don’t really think Pat’s Nazi, but he and many of his type never mind misrepresenting the positions of others. And he likes to pretend he is a real tough guy, despite somehow not going serving in the military during the Vietnam War.

I don’t want to go to war with Syria either. But what about safe zones? Do we want the refugees here, or in their own country where they want to be anyway?

I’ll be honest I don’t want them here, but I also don’t want all the Christians and other non-violent sects to be slaughtered either.

I agree we need to put pressure on the countries in that region to do it. I’m sick of our troops doing their dirty work. We should tell them to set up the safe zones, or deal with the repercussions.

One thing we can’t do is allow the UN to monitor anything. All kinds of people have end up dead while they stood there and watched, or helped.

“Do we want the refugees here, or in their own country where they want to be anyway?”

False dichotomy.

It is possible to do nothing in Syria AND refuse entry to refugees.

Too bad Buchanan didn’t become president. We likely would have never gone through this era of traitorous, reckless decades long political disaster of debt, death and decline of our country in every GD direction.

I agree with Pat but we now have high level people saying the objective now is to get rid of Assad. So it looks like the war is on.

Putin is also predicting more strikes from the USA.

UK Prime Minister make it clear that the UK is not on board with any more strikes on Syria.

You’re right. Hell we’ve let North Korea, someone we are technically still at war with, torture, starve and murder millions of their own people while we kiss China’s ass.

Letting millions of people die while we sit at home watching The Voice is the right course of action.

He saved John Demjanjuk's life. The US FRAMED him. It was disgusting. They literally threw exculpatory evidence into a dumpster. It took being deported to Israel for him to get a fair trial. Buchanan did a heroic thing.
