All because we had to insert ourselves into a civil war that was of no interest to us.

All because we had to insert ourselves into a civil war that was of no interest to us.

It could be a lot worse if McCain and Graham got their wish to have forces on the ground in Syria supporting the rebels we like against Assad and the rebels we don't like.

Kind of reminds me of this.

“It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliance with any portion of the foreign world”: it was George Washington’s Farewell Address to us.

The inaugural pledge of Thomas Jefferson was no less clear: “Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations-entangling alliances with none.”
