I see. You stated it as fact, which is why I asked. If it is just your personal opinion, then do be it.

That part where Kerry brags about grabbing women's p*$$ies is especially selacious.

Oh wait.

Interesting... I am listening to this, and pausing to comment

Between 18:30-19:10 - Kerry says Russia does not care about international law and we do. Then he says the lawyers say we can't do anything (we can't go to war) unless we are invited in by Syria, or there is a UN Security Council resolution (which Russia/China would veto), or we are under attack.

Russia was invited by the Syria government to act. Seems like they followed international law.

The only reason we can fly is that we are (supposedly - my insertion) attacking ISIS. But it is obvious that our intentions lead towards toppling the Syrian government - not ISIS.

He was just trying to one up Hillary who loves misogyny. Her buddy Jay Z is the poster boy for misogyny.

Results do speak for themselves.

ISIS did rise to power under Obama/Hillary.

There is no denying it.

Obama did call them the JV squad a few years back.

They are no longer the JV squad.

The problem is the NY Times article is still only an extract. There's still much to the audio about the rebels asking for Washington to step in militarily instead of just supplying weapons and advisor and of the US being prevented from doing so by intl law, Congress, and lack of public support. They left out a lot of the discussion and context which can be found here.

Blog: How the Obama administration helped create ISIS and draw Russia into Syria

It's been written up many times since last fall.

Did you seriously just compare locker room talk to the US arming extremist rebel forces against Assad? Give me a break! Which is going to affect you more?

Have you seen all the threads he has started in hopeful desperation that something might stick?

I'm waiting for the "Trump is a Martian plant" thread.
