Senator McCain calls for U.S. intervention in Syria

[Beco]

The last thing we need is to create, or enter an existing, conflict in another Islamic country.

too late!

But, but... the nuclear weapons!

I'm sure if there was enough oil and other resources there, there would be all sorts of claims being made.

The bottom line is, governments don't care about genocide, they care about profit.

Rowanda, the Congo, Hertzogovena, and Syria are all examples of this.

McCain should have been president, not nobama.

Yeah, that would have been a disaster.



I guess you really do want the apocalypse to happen in 2012.

Obama hates America and it shows.

I wonder what kind of medications the democrats and alts here are on?

Looks like the US of A is starting their sales process, all designed to bomb Syria. Watch the news, you'll see our top brass telling the world we need to do something....just a matter of time before the US, per usual, starts da bombing....

I say, let the Arab League handle this, or Turkey, Jordan perhaps, didnt we sell them planes? How about China or Russia, they voted it down, its their baby....

Looks like some are arguing against it:

amazingly, Hillary came out of the blocks a month ago to bomb, bomb, bomb....without even considering what the Armed Services Committee might have summized....sheeesh, what a warmonger. All we want to do in this country is drop bombs on other nations....

let them figure it out on their own....

Today, the military rebuffed an idea by Senator McCain and Lindsey Graham to launch airstrikes In Syria. Testifying before Congress, Army Gen. Martin Dempsey said a "long-term, sustained air campaign would pose a challenge because Syria's air defenses are five times more sophisticated than Libya's," adding further caution that the country's "chemical and biological weapons stockpile is 100 times larger than Libya's."

From "The Military Doesn't Much Like GOP Hawks Right Now"

Not so much enthusiasm for opening Syrian airspace since they have a layered Russian Air Defense Network and missiles.

Maybe the Senators would fly in the first waves?
