“valuable training programs ...”
The only valuable training program would be to point those kids towards home.
What is wrong with that man? Not even children are worth protecting?
I guess I can answer my own question. If he does not believe in absolute truth and right v. wrong, then he will do whatever seems right at the time. As if a person can know the end from the beginning.
Dork.
Remember the Iran/Iraq War? Iran sent Children and old men up against Sodom. It is the absolute sick thinking of the Islamofascist and this Pres apparently.
The living dead have taken over the WH.
Imagine a waver on human slavery? Hillary should resign over this and run against Obama NOW! He is evil. How much more can he dish out?
He was for it before he was against it -- or against it before he was for it -- or...?
You would think that even she (Clinton) would have a real problem with this.
I sometimes wonder if he is a “person of color” or just a quite dark skinned Arab.
This info has got to be gotten out big time to the pacifist of the left. Bad enough, as far a they are concerned, that he has kept wars going big time but allowing child soldiers? This has got to hit them where it hurts so let’s let them know.
Gotta blanket conservative media outlets with this news. Send it on!!!
And I’ve said it before but democrats look at children as nothing but cannon fodder.
That is true, but this waiver applies only to the governments there, not to the terrorists you mention.
Someone help me ... We have a terrorist attempt on our country. The president finds out Thursday night and the same day he exempts the same country that attempted to attack us from being prosecuted for using child soldiers.
What am I missing here? Something does not smell right or pass the sniff test.
He and official US policy for years has considered the very weak central government our ally against the local AlQuaeda. This is basically the same thing as Pakistan, with deserts as opposed to jungles, much greater poverty (no oil), smaller, and more ancient.
What is the advantage of allowing Yemen to use youths to fight? What happens when the press shows pictures of dead children because our weapons were used to kill them.
What is the terrorists who planted the ‘bombs’ yesterday were children, can you kill them?
****Can you imagine the outcry if Bush did this?****
Actually the folks on DU find it abhorrent, and are ready to get rid of Obama:

‘What happens when the press shows pictures of dead children because our weapons were used to kill them.’
This thread is not about children being shot by our weapons, it is about our weapons being used by children to kill the enemy. Our choice is to either support the government or to give the AlQuaeda control of one of the world’s most important trade routes, the Horn of Africa region, giving them effective control of East Africa and Arabia, further endangering the entire Middle East and the East Indies.
