The Obama administration is freaking out. Why they committed so strongly to regime change in Syria is beyond me.
I thought regime change (i.e. Iraq) was bad, why would it be good in Syria?
I think its been a Neo-con strategy for many years. Make no mistake, Syria has been on the hit list for some time. I know several Syrians who had little issue with Assad in the past. They could come and go as they pleased until now. Even Americans could visit Syria until recently, unlike other countries like Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan. Perhaps change is needed eventually, but, it seems, the past several administrations have not been square with the American people, disingenuous.
Are we supposed to get out of the wars or stay in them? What I'd like to know is exactly what right wing nut jobs/talk radio fans think our country should do in the middle east?
I get the feeling that any course of action would still result in talk radio regurgitators saying that Obama is the devil.
Personally, I think we should get out of the middle east and use our own resources. If Russia wants to bleed itself in the middle east like it did in Afghanistan, let them go ahead. Let the terrorists target them.
Who wants to get out of the middle east? Not Obama - he is supporting regime change in Syria and has been for 4 years. He's arming so-called moderate rebels in Syria (i.e. Al Nusra a/k/a Al Qaeda), he's conducting air strikes against ISIS (he calls ISIL).
Obama is now freaking out because Russia is meddling with his meddling.
You should worry about right wing radio talk show hosts so much.

It's really irrelevant what they think as it's not their call.

So it's call radio's fault?

I'll ask again, why aren't we?
