Very much inclined to agree.
“Avoid foreign entanglements” - advice from our founding fathers

RE: “I believe Pat Buchanan is once again right.
Looking back on our various foreign policies, I truly believe the United States has been on the wrong side of history for the past twenty plus years. Our Foreign Reactions have been even worse.
EVERY and I do mean every foreign adventure has created more problems than they have solved. If any were solved.”

Given the types of anti-aircraft batteries Russia has installed in Syria, I doubt this State Department sally will get very far.

I knew it wouldn’t be too long after I saw this. Having the first secular Constitution in the Middle East would just not work for the Islamist Obama administration.

Our leadership in DC is actually trying to contain ISIS, because they created trains and armed ISIS in the first place. And defeating Assad will only keep ISIS alive and manageable

(Shiver) State Department officials urging air and missile strikes on Damascus? Sounds like something Sid Blumenthal conjured up....for his business interests.....as in Hillary and Obama's Libya venture. Hillary and Sid Blumenthal have given the State Dept and unprovoked bombings a b-a-d, b-a-d name.

============================================

He as not even a US govt employee, but Sid Blumenthal had top secret inside govt info and was constantly in touch w/ Secy Hillry.

<><> For public consumption, Sid was touted as a Clinton Foundation hire---the factotum hired "to preserve Bill's presidential legacy" (cue laugh machine).

<><> Sid's emails show he had classified info almost verbatim (as confirmed by the NSA).

<><> Blumenthal was urging Hillary to bomb Libya b/c he had profit-making business interests predicated on a new Libyan govt.

<><> Sid also used scare tactics----that Obama would lose reelection if they didn't bomb Libya.

Hillary passed on this information to Obama.....did he know it came from a person he banned from govt employment?

DECEMBER 2003 : (SYRIAN ACCOUNTABILITY ACT) According to the most recent Department of State Patterns of Global Terrorism Report: “[Syria] continued in 2001 to provide safe haven and logistics support to a number of terrorist groups.”
Among the terrorist groups named are Ahmad Jibrils Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC), the Palestine Islamic Jihad (PIJ), Abu Musa’s Fatah-the-Intifadah, George Habashs Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, and HAMAS which continued to maintain offices in Damascus.
Syria is suspected of providing Hizballah, HAMAS, PFLP-GC, the PIJ, and other terrorist organizations refuge and basing privileges in Lebanons Bekaa Valley, under Syrian control.
United Nations Security Council Resolution 425 issued in 1978, called for the withdrawal of Israeli and Syrian troops from Lebanon.
Israel subsequently withdrew all of its armed forces from Lebanon in accordance with the resolution, as certified by the United Nations Secretary General.
Even in the face of this United Nations certification that acknowledged Israel’s full compliance with Resolution 425, more than 20,000 Syrian troops and security personnel occupy much of the sovereign territory of Lebanon.
Syria is accused of permitting attacks by Hizballah and other militant organizations on Israeli outposts at Shebaa Farms, under the false guise that it remains Lebanese land, and is also blamed for attacks on civilian targets in Israel.
Syria is also in violation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 520 issued in 1982 which calls for “strict respect of the sovereignty, territorial integrity, unity and political independence of Lebanon under the sole and exclusive authority of the Government of Lebanon through the Lebanese Army throughout Lebanon.”
As a result, the Israeli-Lebanese border and much of southern Lebanon is under the control of Hizballah which continues to attack Israeli positions, allows Iranian Revolutionary Guards and other militant groups to operate freely in the area, and maintains thousands of rockets along Israel’s northern border, destabilizing the entire region.

Speaking of Syrian-hosted “Jibrils Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC)”...

This is the group that is in the US one of whose members organized the “Day Without Women” event...
