Honestly, I am conflicted on this issue. Too much rhetoric around, and I do not trust Putin on the world stage.
But Hillary gave Russia a reset button. And Obama told Medvedev to tell Putin about his flexibility. They must have trusted him. And, as I like to point out to liberals, it was Palin who specifically said Obama's policies might lead to Russia invading Ukraine. Are you big enough to admit the view of the future from her porch was better than Hillary's and Obama's porches?
Assad, a great ally of the traditional Iran, does not recognize the state of Israel, and has used chemical weapons on his own citizens...
Is that stuff supposed to be bad? It wasn't when Saddam did it - liberals never stop saying Saddam. And Iran is the same, except they're going for nukes rather than chemical weapons, and Obama keeps making overtures to them, thinking they'll be his pals if he sucks up to them enough.
Did you support taking out Saddam??
Yes, though I was worried when they didn't have a good plan on what to do after he was out of power. Saddam was doing a lot more more than either Assad or Gaddafi that was bad such as starting multiple wars in the region ... for more you can review the Congressional resolution authorizing the war.
Do you see a potential growing alliance between Russia, Iran, Assad etc.?? Do you want to embrace that??
Duh. There's no potential there, it's an actuality. I don't think there's anything we can do to prevent it, so it's not up to us to "embrace it."
Will the Syrian rebels be moderate, tolerate religious minorities, gays, elevating women's rights and accept the mere existence of Israel ??? (Step 1 only, I don't need them to support all Israeli policies, just its existence for now) I would like to know.
I can tell you the answer now. NO to everything you listed.
There have been hints of this in reports from the rebels. I think you must have imagined that.
WTF is Ben Carson doing in Syrian refugee camps? If that was Hillary- conservatives would be flipping out over such an obvious political stunt.
And you WOULDN'T be flipping out over Hillary. EVERY Democrat leader is falling over themselves to pronounce Syrian refugees as 'like the Pilgrims' and say it's vital for them to enter the US. |
