US Congresswoman Introduces Bill To Stop "Illegal" War On Assad; Says CIA Ops Must Stop
Zero Hedge ^ | 21 Nov 2015 | Tyler

Posted on 11/21/2015 4:41:30 PM PST by amorphous

Last month, US Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard went on CNN and laid bare Washington’s Syria strategy.

In a remarkably candid interview with Wolf Blitzer, Gabbard calls Washington’s effort to oust Assad "counterproductive” and “illegal" before taking it a step further and accusing the CIA of arming the very same terrorists who The White House insists are "sworn enemies."

In short, Gabbard all but tells the American public that the government is lying to them and may end up inadvertently starting "World War III."

According to the UN, it is illegal to support and develop a revolution in a sovereign state that is a member of the UN...

"This is absolute treason"

Not sure who you mean: is it Obama or Gabbard to whom you ascribe treason?

(Not getting snippy here: I found your post ambiguous.)

Assad is not the enemy. Obama is the enemy.

Assad is not the one decimating the Christian population in Syria. Obama has caused that to happen.

She’s wrong. There will be nothing “inadvertent” about it, at least on Zero’s part.

The republican led congress has voted not only to hand over a blank check to Obama, but previously handed full diplomatic say-so to Obama... removing itself effectively from having any say so whatsoever in matters of budget or foreign policy.

NOW these EFFING representatives want to complain?????

THEY Handed away their congressional power!... They might as well go home!

I don’t want to hear from ANY congressional reps about ANYTHING except HOW they are going to impeach Obama.... because that is the only power they have left use... but they will probably give that away too!

I believe Obama is funding ISIS indirectly and she is right.

Please don’t be fooled.

This is another Democrat being groomed for higher office, going through all the best career channels, saying all the right things.

Just like Barry did before he got into office.

HONOLULU — Eleven years ago, U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, now a rising star in the Democratic Party, was a little-known state representative from a West Oahu district. It was her then-Republican father, Mike, who was in the political limelight.
Tulsi Gabbard Still Dogged By Krishna Cult Rumors

The elder Gabbard, known for his virulent anti-gay crusade in the 1990s, was challenging Democratic incumbent Ed Case in the race to represent Hawaii’s 2nd Congressional District. So, for a profile piece, a writer at Honolulu Magazine emailed him and asked about his family’s ties to a guru named Chris Butler, aka Jagad Guru Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa, who leads an obscure offshoot of the Hare Krishna movement in Hawaii.

What is the treason you refer to? The undeclared war with Assad without as much as a congressional resolution authorizing force? No UN authorization as Bush used in Desert Storm and in Iraq?
Or sending arms to Al Qeida who attacked us on 9/11?

Those are all pretty treasonous.

If she really had courage, instead of introducing bills that are safe to introduce because she knows they will never be passed, she ought to be fighting Obama and especially Hillary directly, calling him out on the carpet.

She did not propose this bill without Obama’s and the DNC’s permission.

Indeed.

Where is her bill to halt the “refugee” importation?

It is as illegal and as much treason to our country for the Dems to support the same invasion of the US that is currently underway in Europe.

The only current authorization of force in Syria is if Assad used chemical weapons. A week later the rebels gassed and area an claimed it was Assad to bring in the F-18s.
Assad immediately gave up his stockpile in the deal brokered by the Russians.

Everything we are doing today lies outside any legal framework used throughout our nations history. This woman is right.

Oh, also she’s not guilty.
