It's the usual suspect Neocons that are beating the war drum and salivating as they do it. Perpetual war, a Neocon wet dream.

Someone didn't read the OP's link.

Those comments came AFTER a Dem introduced a bill to arm the "good" rebels.


From the OP link:

Corker's comments came a day after Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Menendez, a Democrat, introduced legislation to arm Syrian rebels, punish countries that arm Assad's regime, and stabilize the country when and if he loses power.

Why not arm the rebels? The US provides arms to the Mexican army which then get turned over to the Mexican drug dealers.

Stupid is as stupid does..... fast and furious is the default strategy when politics comes into the equation.
