Over 100,000 dead, and the emboldened dictator presses onward with his massacre.
John Kerry admits Syria policy failing, kinda..
www.washingtontimes.com...
Obama drew a red line, then backed away from it and claimed that it was effective in his state of the union address. Assad may as well have been given a green light. The country is falling apart, the infiltration of Al Qaeda and others have only added to the misery of the Syrian people. How can the president claim his diplomacy and policies were successful while the murderer/dictator continues the slaughter?

Stop trying to make it that.

I'm not the one who stuck our nose into this mess in the first place. Our fearless leader seeking to score a politically motivated "diplomatic" victory did. And despite the worsening situation claims his policies were successful.
If it was up to me, we would always refrain from any involvement in that region of the world except where it directly threatens our security. Should we give him a pass for making the situation worse, not better?
If so, then lets move on to bigger and better things like our own domestic issues... And avoid these tedious distractions.

You went off the rails, you've missed the point and the bigger picture here, sorry I can't help you with that.
Good luck.

Right or wrong, The intentions to invade have always been there.
ITS THE FACT that people in command, already have the agenda you should be focusing on.
ALL that is needed is the Excuse, and ensuing public outcry.

Theres Turkey, UAE,Quatar, Israel,Lebanon,and probably a few others involved....
