Let them kill eachother and when the last one is sitting on a sand dune.......drone strike! +87,000 |

So eleven of you want to use drone or cruise strikes against the regime in order to aid Salafists, terrorists, and the Muslim Brotherhood backed FSA. Nice. You act like we aren't doing that already. |

Poll isn't realistic, no "Apologize and Bow" option You didn't read the question then. Hint: look at the part in bold. Unless you feel that we should apologize and bow. |

If we'd stepped on Assad from 50k feet right at the start, there'd be a 13% chance of not having a complete clusterfuck islamist regime there (note 87% chance it would anyway). Now it's lose/lose. Assad or Aloha and the Snackbar Gang..... |

The MB has always been at the forefront of the opposition in Syria dating back to the 50's. This is not the first time the regime has had to deal with a Sunni Islamist revolt. |

Who fucking cares what those fucking savages do to each other? Not our damn problem. I could give a rats ass about Mulisms using chemical weapons against other Muslims. Its not worth the life of one Marine defending, no matter what one side did to the other side. 100% agree. As I said in another thread, NOTHING in Syria is in our national interest. Syria is not our friend, and will not be in the future regardless of who wins. If they want help, they can ask their pals the Soviets Russians. |

Quoted:
Words have consequences. You can't say the use of chemical weapons is crossing the line and then not act. The coward in cheif has yet to witness the consequences of his words, so why should he worry now? |

Quoted:
I was watching a discussion regarding the Syria situation and their use of Sarin on Syrians rebels. As you may recall, the President warned the Syrians that the movement of, or use of chemical weapons were a "red line" that they should not cross. Of course, this was an implied threat from us if they did this. The Syrians have now done this in defiance of that threat. The question is how should we respond? If we do nothing, the tinpot dictators of the world will assume that a warning from the US is not something that necessarily needs to be taken seriously. However, if we do respond, we have to dedicate assets to do this. Now - the question isn't what Obama will do - the question is what do you think we should do? Poll added - multiple answers allowed. Obama just drew another couple of lines today. “A whole bunch,” meet “systematic “the systematic use” of chemical weapons against Syrian rebels would trigger a forceful American response. Back in August, Obama bluntly warned Assad’s regime that while he had not “at this point” ordered an American military response to Syria's civil war, “a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized." |

Obongo made a stupid statement that is now going to show how powerless we are before people who mean us harm. Never make threats you are not prepared to back up. Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. Abraham Lincoln The world is not Chicago, and the politics are very different. |

Hey, I'm for INVASION.
Let's just get it all over and done with. You know there's going to be a shitfight there soon enough, and it took WWII to really fix the depression. This way we can save 10-15yrs. Imagine where we might be now if Europe could have fast-forwarded through the so-called "dark ages". Just sayin'. |
|
Supply each side with enough chemical weapons to exterminate each other. This should be done in all middle east countries.
|
|
Walk away. It is none of business what any filthy ass Middle Easterners do to one another.
|
|
We should airlift in cheap video cameras to both sides to keep the alluah snack bar videos coming and keep hoping for a high body count on each side.
|
|
I voted do nothing and full scale invasion.
I am a pretty firm believer that we should stay the fuck out of everyone's business, we are not the police of the world. However if we are going to get involved it should be all out. Glass the whole damned middle east and get it the fuck over with. I am sick of half assed military actions not approved by congress either declare war on something and fucking annihilate it or leave it the hell alone. Of course we do have some assets that should be protected in foreign nations but that's not the point. |

I think we're overdue to let one off the chain. The world needs a reminder. http://www.setyoufreenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/nuclear-blast.jpg Is is still too late to unchain one on Tora Bora, some clear moonless night. How about in the Persian Gulf or Arabian Sea? And just for good effect light one off in the Haesu or Wonsan harbors simultaneously to the split second. We need some good TEOTWAWKI drills. I am tired of supporting the Muzzloid Brotherhood, Hezboolah, PLO, Mujahadeen, Islamofascists, Janet Napolitano, and Al Qaeda. The U.S. should give it a rest. |

Assist Al-Assad. Psychopathic tyrants are the only ones who can suppress the terrorists who want to kill us.
|

Let Assad gas the fuck out of whom ever he wants in Syria.
Saddam did. The "world" did nothing when he started murdering entire Kurdish villages. No one stepped in to stop the aggressions. The "world" didn't give a damn what Saddam was doing until he overstepped his ego and laid claim to a major portion of the worlds oil deposits and started laying waste to a world banking center. And now we're supposed to get upset about WMD's being used in a Syrian civil war? Assad has a long way to go before he warrants the "worlds" concern and intervention. We have learned, despite some appearances and liberal whining. It should be a century or more before we set foot on that road again. |

More debt and potential American lives lost? Not if my vote can help it.
|
|
Quoted:
WMD's from Iraq of all places. All Bush's fault. Syria has its own chemical weapons program and has for years. |
|
Nothing for now. If it looks like Assad will fall, I'm down with strikes on the chem weapon plants.

Not our fight. Picking sides generally backfires. We should do nothing and stop sending the rebels body armor and NVGs. We are giving those twats NVGs? I thought we were only giving "humanitarian aid". I vote "fuck em" let them kill each other. But you know the closet muslim is going to help them out one way or the other. Yep. And I'm sure we are giving them other "tools" behind closed doors. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the stuff we are giving them is used against us some day. |

We can't have Muslims killing each other - wait - yeah let's just do nothing .

Quoted: We can't have Muslims killing each other - wait - yeah let's just do nothing . Kinda like with gangbangers |

Unless conditions go to MOPP Level V, stay OUT.
In the meanwhile get as much intel that the Locals, starting with Israel, can give us. This is one time that the UN can and should take the lead on. |
|
Nothing. Look at us, this country...whatever this nation would do right now would be a failure or flat out against our interests.
We have dipshits in charge, the greater power dipshits have the bigger a threat they are, its better they do nothing. |
|
Quoted:
No good answer. Getting involved in yet another mid-eastern war is not something we need to be doing. In Syria it's not entirely clear who the good guys are or even who is calling the shots. Assad or perhaps one of Assad's crew called our bluff. And I suspect it was a bluff all along. You're wrong. There IS a good answer and it's to stay the fuck away- as most of your post illustrates. We've already gone too far by making a statement we weren't ready to back up, but not reason to compound that mistake with a bigger one. |
|
Quoted: Muslims killing muslims. I'm fine with that. Sell both sides nerve gas. |
|
Air drop weapons to both sides. After they are finished killing each other off, then take a look at which side to back.
|
|
It is none of our business. I say we stay out. Last I check the bill or rights / constitution grants freedom and rights to Americans within its lands. It doesn't extend beyond that. I am not saying we don't supply the rebel with arms. But no troops on the ground and no intervention.
|
|
If we don't respond it will be the fault of republicans.
If we do...same. Main stream media will attend to the details. I think the present administration will punt this around till it goes away. |
|
Sell weapons to both sides.....profit. Kill the winner....install dictator

Poll fail !!!! No stern letter or beer summit choice .

Because they know Obama's not going to react.
Why would Syria use chemical weapons knowing the US would intervene? Makes no sense. Q:What should we do? (Besides the money we already give the FSA) A:NOTHING Under W or Reagan, they would have never dreamed of unleashing the dragon, but today they might as well start the party. Kharn |

Stay the hell out of other peoples business. We are broke. THIS!!! I have heard conflicting reports about whether Asad even used chems. Last thing we need is another "false flag." |
