Am I alone when I say that I don't give a crap if Assad used chemical weapons?
America has been excessively worrying about the lives of Arabs for what, 50 years? Longer?
Does anybody really care anymore about what happens to those people in that area of the world?
Has America gained anything (other than death, misery, terrorism, and loss of trillions of dollars) by meddling with those people over there for decades?
Only dozens got killed. The explanation that he accidentally bombed chemicals on the ground seems more likely.
This was an attack on our President, with optics of dead children designed to make him look bad and weak. The deep state Mediarats would use this to take Rice off the news cyscle and hammer Trump for months with their fake concern for children.
Arguably we got oil when we needed it.
Not efficiently, and yes, we created, directly or indirectly, the worst threats over there—from Al-Qaeda to ISIS, Saudi Arabia’s wahabi export and Iran.
Oh, and trillions in arms sales. Not admirable or really defendable, but we had motivations that went beyond our Cold War proxy fights.

Much longer. My favorite series of novels is the Tarzan series by Edgar Rice Burroughs, beginning in 1912.
The Tarzan novels always had 3 groups from which to draw their villians, Arabs, Russians and occasionally Germans, but always Arabs.
No, you are not. Our so-called arab "friends" today will be our sworn enemies tomorrow. Keep in mind that on 9/11, nineteen of our Saudi "friends" drove two planes into the Twin Towers, one into The Pentagon and murdered all the people on Flight 93.
Kill 'em all and let GOD sort 'em out!
You are not alone.
There are a lot of Christians in Syria, at least the ones who haven’t been murdered by the U.S. created ISIS, so yes I definitely care about what happens to “those people.”
Did you see the children having their clothes stripped off and sprayed to remove the chemical? Your reply, to me, is beyond comprehension. If no sympathy for the adults at least have some for the innocent children.
The lives of innocent Arabs matter no less than the lives of innocent others; the Lord God made us all.
