We have been fed a continual stream of BS about syria. We have been told it is an important human rights issue we must all get behind and be the world police in regards to the use of chemical weapons. Of course, that never added up considering we have allowed them to be used by allies of the US working for US goals like Isreal and Iraq back during the reagan administration. No one ever suggested launching a missile strike on Isreal when they clearly used chemical weapons on the palestinians, and we even told Saddam where to shoot his when at war with Iran. No, like always we really do not care about the humanitarian reasons as we saw today when those issues took a clear backseat to another excuse they thought would float better.
Now we have to use those strikes on syria to show Iran. Think of the stupidity of that. Imagine blowing up canada to tell the US they are not going to put up with their crap. How is that even a deterrent when you cannot muster up the courage to hit the country you are trying to show you have the courage to hit? Look, if these attacks are so minor as to not be an act of war, which clearly they are, then shouldn't we send the message to Iran directly to Iran? We are interested in scaring Iran away from nuclear capabilities, but we are going to attack a country we have no real concern in? If it is your purpose to show Iran we mean business then launch these attacks on them. Don't give us stupid excuses like we care about the humanitarian abuses of syria when no one in power really does care about it. Don't weaken our military by potentially involving us in a conflict that would make an attack on Iran harder because we are spread to thin. Don't hit Syria because you think no one will notice how cowardly it was to hit a weaker country when you are unwilling to launch against Iran. If you are not going to cripple their capabilities to launch chemical weapons do not give them a reason to use them like you are too slow and too weak to give a proper attack to cripple their capabilities.
Now we have the morons in congress doing something that is less popular than they are. It has to be hard to find something less popular than congress to do, but they begged Obama for it, and now they are pushing for it. What is congress going to do next week? Are they going to make a new law that says MLB has to use baby heads instead of baseballs? God damn, they are running out of crappy ideas. Why get all into obama's decision and tell him it is a horrible idea that he should leave to congress and then when he finally backs off you try to do the same horrible idea you said was so bad just a week ago? I thought Iraq was stupid, but at least Busgh talked about winning that one, and he wasn't going to do an act of war which he says wasn't going to do any good. At least he thought he was doing something good, and he wasn't telling us his war was going to do absolutely nothing like this syria strike is being played down to. really is it a powerful statement that will inspire fear in our enemies, or is it just a passing attack that is a toothless message that we just have to do because we committed to it?
Yes, we have already lost the respect from all of this because our leadership has already shown they have no idea what they are doing or the reasons they are doing it for. You can launch all the missiles you want at this point, we look like a bunch of wacked out doofballs. There is no longer any looking good at this point.
