(11,461 posts)Assad as we know has become a murdering dictator, does this justify us destroying the whole country just to get him out?
I know this place can be volatile sometimes especially at times when the stakes are higher, however I do believe most DU
members respect and see these guys as Noble Men, most people also know (me included) that sometimes they are
powerless to act based on multiple reasons, but the majority of the public see them as figure heads which makes them an
easier target. Our job should you asked is to keep them honest.
I think our governments' task is to target those who sold Syria these chemical weapons instead of drumming up more
wars.
We are still in Afghanistan were Americans dying, why send them out to another war?
There are those who believe in war to maintain power over the powerless, there are also those who are trying to silent
people from speaking the truth as in a wave of DOS to my machine in an effort to prevent me from posting on DU. lol
