Was Kosovo in europe? Looks middle east or mediterranian to me. That was a NATO operation. If the US is a leader, then our ambassador will be twisting arms to do what the president wants us to do with approval.
I'm aware of that. I just feel that going into one more middle eastern country should be the decision of and done by the UN.
Hans Blix: Whether Obama in Syria or Bush in Iraq, The US Is Not the World Police http://www.huffingtonpost.com/nathan-gardels/hans-blix-the-united-stat_b_3819367.html
I don't really care what Hans Blix has to say about it. http://www.huffingtonpost.com HuffPost is pounding the war drums on the home page.
And that's the real problem. Media companies have become nothing more than jingoistic mouthpieces for whatever party is control. When Bush was in power it was Fox News pounding the war drums. Now that Obama has continued the same executive over-reach it's HuffPo and MSNBC. The death of journalism in this country dovetails nicely with the death of common sense and a cherishing of democratic principles in this country. I need a drink.
The HCP doesn't get involved in threads like this normally, but he will be over near there for a month in February. The Winter Olympics in Sochi is pretty damn close to Syria.... Close enough to have him worried a little bit. Wonder if this will affect the games? Sent from HCPs Baller-Ass iPhone 5...FAMS!
You're going to leave the Blazers for a month? How will that work, aren't you under contract for the entire season?
For once, I agree with PapaG. We don't really know who made those chemical attacks, while it wouldn't surprise me in the least if it was Assad. Comparing Saddam and Assad at this point might be fair.
Either the U.S. always waits too long to intervene and only does so when it's in our best interest, or the U.S. needs to butt out and quit acting like the world police and just let the situation work itself out. Pretty much damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Boss realizes how much dinero I can make is letting me take off for 3 1/2 weeks. All star break will take up 6 of those days. Speaking of Lakers.... Will be working with their director and producer in the ducks game this weekend.... I'll tell them hi from you guys! Sent from HCPs Baller-Ass iPhone 5...FAMS!
The American media forgot to tell us that Israel is busy attacking with or without us. Why not let Israel fight their own wars instead of bankrupting the U.S., in order to maintain all of Israel's neighbors in permanent disheaval.
