This is what awaits the ones who are being considered to go to war based on a tremendous amount of poor intelligence, no absolute identified mission. This is what they are being asked to give their life up for. This is not playing soldier in the back yard as a kid, this is getting serious wounds and getting actually killed. I sure as heck would not want my son or daughter giving their life up for the stupid statement regarding a "Red Line"
Think it over before saying you would be willing to see that 18 or 19 year old kid being shot and killed for what they are talking about. It is sad so many don't think of the kid falling in the field after being shot or the pilot being taken prisoner and being tortured. It is not abstract it is real.  |
I can't remember the last "just" war, where there was an actual threat. They've all been proven to be based on lies.
This Syria thing is part of a bigger plan. Middle eastern countries are being destabilized at an alarming rate...something is afoot...
