SecState Kerry: Bombing Syria is not "going to war". Really.

[Little-Acorn]

What was it called when Reagan bombed Libya in 1986?

It was called "A response to the bombing and destruction of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland in which American citizens were killed", thanks for asking.

Wrong, it was an air strike to punish Qaddafi for the German disco bombing.

Indeed. Mo-Mo Kadafi became tame after we nailed his ass a few times...even became pliant...Obama ruined that and saw to his death...

It has been done by almost every president in the modern era. Both GOP and Dems have done it, but now it's an issue. Put your heads back into the sand, soon there maybe a GOP president.

America has no vested interest in bombing Syria except to assuage Obama's ego. Syria has done nothing to America to warrant you bombing the shit out of the country and killing innocent civilians.

No reason whatsoever unless you really believe you should become "world enforcers". Or is it that Obama's bored with drone assassinations and he wants to go "big time".

okay, then to you it's okay to use WMD's against civilians, okay, God has a special place for your kind.

show me proof that the US is training rebels and arming them.

I had it up yesterday. CIA trained rebels. Reported everywhere.

I'll go get the link. Trained in Jordan I believe. Obama really really wants to depose Assad.

Syria is preparing. They know which sites we are going to bomb and have moved troops and equipment out and civilians are "volunteering" to go to these sites acting as human shields. They will themselves bomb schools and maybe a "baby milk factory". Be prepared to see pictures of hundreds of dead women and children they will accuse us of killing.

Prove it was Assad and not the rebels. Go to the UN with your evidence. Present it to the Security Council.

Reagan spent a lot of money and time training and arming Al Qaeda, we can't let them go to waste.

It was a trick question-----no solid evidence of us actually arming them---yet.

And WHAT did it DO to the region? Set it on fire, didn't it? SAME as Egypt...SAME Obama wants to do with Syria.

Obama is setting the region on fire...as he still coddles his NOBEL PEACE PRIZE...right?

YOU just don't think these things through, do you?

Putin calls Kerry a liar on Syria

Things aren't exactly warming up between the Obama administration and Vladimir Putin, even as President Obama arrived in St. Petersburg for the G-20 summit.

Putin called Obama Secretary of State John Kerry a liar over Kerry's testimony this week before Congress.

The question may be al-Qaeda's influence on the Syrian rebels, an issue Kerry has downplayed.

Speaking to his human rights council Wednesday, Putin said, "This was very unpleasant and surprising for me. We talk to them (the Americans), and we assume they are decent people, but he is lying and he knows that he is lying. This is sad."

 

[The T]

Personally? I think Putin is a reject from the Cold War (KGB)...but Knowing the bunch that is in power now and their history? I find myself siding with Putin!

Every other president has done the same thing to those leaders that posed a threat to us, or had already attacked us or our interests. Syria poses no threat to us, no threat to our interests and has not attacked us. obama intends to protect his vanity by piggy backing his need on the back of a purely internal civil war. obama brought the civil war to this point by choosing to support al quaeda terrorists keeping the civil war going long past the point where it would ordinarily be put down.

This is all about obama's vanity. Since it is obama's vanity, he can't even imagine that anyone would actually do something after being bombed! They are supposed to just take it aren't they?

 

[Clementine]

So, if the left drops bombs and kills people, it's not declaring war, it's just being firm.

I see the latest yahoo headline is that Obama is claiming that Syria is a national security threat. And helping al Qaeda will somehow make us safer. I think Obama and the liberals are a bigger threat to our nation.

If Assad is the threat, why don't they just go get him? Why are we dropping bombs that will kill innocent civilians? I thought the left hated killing people, but I guess they've changed their minds since Obama wants to help his friends, the radical Muslims.

 

[TooTall]

Interesting.

I'd thought I'd heard it all from these leftists, but this is a new one.

Slinging bomb-laden cruise missiles at a foreign country that has not attacked us, is no longer an act of war. It's now merely "degrading the capacity of a man".

Maybe he's using that phrase, because "overseas contingency operation" and "workplace violence" were already taken?

There will be no "boots on the ground", after all.

BTW, I guess that means that the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, also wasn't an act of war. It was, after all, only a "limited air strike" aimed at "degrading the capacity" our Navy in the Pacific ocean

True also for the 9/11 attacks. No boots on the ground there, remember.

I'm so glad this administration is there to give us the REAL definitions of these things. Think how confused and misled we'd be without them.

SecState Kerry announces that bombing Syria is not "going to war"

Russia's Putin warns US against 'aggression' in Syria without UN approval - World News

(snip)

"The president is not asking you to go to war," Kerry said in response to a question asked by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. "He’s simply saying we need to take an action that can degrade the capacity of a man who’s willing to kill his own people by breaking a nearly 100-year-old prohibition, and will we stand up and be counted to say we won’t do that."

I can well imagine that Barry would label it "workplace violence".

I wonder what his royal highness would call it if a SCUD was suddenly seen flying toward the White House?

Obamas last words would be "Bush caused this."
