We should arm both sides so that they are more effective in killing each other.

“There are few or no good guys in the Arab world.”
I have to agree. I could not give 2 $hits about what happens to the Arab world, after seeing what these poor excuses for human beings did to the Twin Towers. Our people jumping from those buildings while those maniac sub-humans were dancing for joy.

Nah! Why stir up a hornet’s nest? Besides that, they’ll only start shooting Christians, and selling some of the arms to the “Palestinians” and to terrorists who attack us in our homeland.

Our Orthodox Christian Brothers and Sisters in Syria need peace and stability restored ASAP.

Besides that, not so long ago a colleague of mine, a fellow American, went all over Syria absolutely unhindered. Besides doing business, he saw all sorts of Christian sites, which are very numerous. For such conditions to happen again, we need a clear Assad victory.

And I wish Romney, whom I support, would NOT make a campaign issue of Syria. BOTH liberal interventionists AND neocons are addicted to “humanitarian war”, which always turns out poorly, especially for Christians. Better to find peaceful ways to encourage an Assad regime to evolve toward constitutional government, as happened elsewhere in the world.

A question itself is wrong to the core.
Why Assad is a bad guy? How could a good guy look like there? Are you going to seek gentlemen in a sewers or something?
Assad types are effective and quite friendly leaders in that part of the world. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Assad rattling sabre or flying green flag condemining great satan and “joose” declaring jihad, urging beheading of something.
As for Assad’s flaws if liberals really think humanism and liberalism work in Middle East they are even dumber than they look.

Agree with all 4 posts (so far.) What gives with Romney talking about arming the anti-Assad rebels?

I have no idea what's he's thinking.

Everytime we give arms to nutbag jihads to kill somebody, somebody turns out to be American.
