For ten years Liberals have been telling us we could not trust intelligence that was laid out before the publics eye prior to going to war with Iraq. NOW those same people tell us we must trust the very same intelligence sources but this time they won't show us. THEY are convinced, I doubt they would have accepted that relaxed standard from W.
For ten years they have told us that there was NO REASON, NO NAtional interest in going to war in Iraq. In Libya, Egypt, and now Syria there is not even the fig leaf of national interest, it is a sectarian civil war. Yet they are beating the drums of war.
They derided Bush for Mission accomplished, but defend Obamas juvenile red line challenge.
In 2002 we had reports from 9 countries intelligence services that Saddam had WMD and was working to get a nuke. That was not enough. NOW we can not even be sure who set off the Sarin gas, and we must go to war immediately, but now, we can wait a month or so for congress, and it wont be boots on the ground, unless it is boots on the ground, after the limited strike fails to shock and awe.
A little Middle East history; Carter usurped the Shah because he was a dictator, but he maintained stability in the region, and kept the Islamist radicals at bay. Now the radicals are in charge.
Obama undermined Mubarak because he was a dictator. But he maintained stability, and defended American interests, and kept the radical islamists at bay. NOW the Islamists are in charge.
Obama actively helped overthrow Libya, and ushered in the Radical Islamists, now it is a broken country descending into sectarian violence, but ALL the sects have one common enemy, AMERICA! They burn Obama in effigy, for his interference.
NOW, Obama wants to insert the US into ANOTHER sectarian civil war, to affect change, with the most likely outcome being the Alqaeda backed rebels taking over.
WHEN does the president STOP using our money and lives to help our enemies take over countries?
