Kerry: Syria intervention will not be like Iraq, Afghanistan or Libya
Jerusalem Post ^ | 30 Aug 2013 | Michael Wilner

Do I have this right?

This idiot signed up for swiftboat operations in Vietnam
because it was a coastal patrol that saw little action. Then
the rules of engagement were changed and they were sent into
the deltas and rivers and were being shot at
so he trumps up some injuries to get his purple hearts and get out.

If I’m right about this, we have a yellow spined coward telling
us how he plans to fight a war.

You have nailed it 100%. Just like Billy Clinton and the Monica strikes on empty al Qaeda training camps and an aspirin factory. Only thing is, I doubt Obama is capable of selecting equally meaningful targets.

No, I think the only target he has his mind on is Reggie.

It will be like Carter’s intervention in Iran.

So, the same anti war vet, who in a public display of insolent defiance, tossed his VN “medals” into the anti war chanting crowd, now believes Syria needs bombing? hmmmm

Most know this Syria operation was a staged event. I was convinced they would do it. Now they have...

The goal is to put young American lives and US treasure at risk so that the president doesn't look like the little gay freak that everyone already knows he is.

Obama, when he fires up his stupid, purple lipped, fly infested sno cone hole without a TelePrompTer has about as much savvy as a house plant. Dangerous, dangerous fool

Perhap the ground troops, that follow the initial carpet bombing will be the elite forces from within the ranks of Obama's "Citizen Military" ?

It has through the years become apparent to me..that every time kerry tilts his head.. hes delivering a whopper. WHAT A COINCIDENCE??

An unfortunate memory just crossed my mind involving Barambo Obamas pronunciation of Marine Corps!

Good observation about the head tilt when lying. These are the ‘tells’ which give someone away - we all have them.

You would make a good poker player.

So what is the goal?

That's the biggest way it differs from the others - there is no goal.

Kerry is right. It will not be like Libya or Afghanistan. Those incursions did not start WWIII

History books just might say (if there are history books or even history) that WWIII "the War of US Intervention" actually started with the first Persian Gulf War and spun out of control under an unaccountable Obama.
