Let's face it, doing nothing there is better than the half-baked policy Obama is using. Here is an example:

"A top U.S. military commander for operations in the Middle East acknowledged on Wednesday that there are only four or five fighters left from the first group of 54 Syrian fighters trained by the U.S. as part of a $500 million program."

It cost about $1 million each to "train" these "fighters. Great plan Obama!

It has been a stated goal of the United States to challenge the former Syrian dictator, and now his son for over forty years.  Israel and the United States believed that Syria was responsible for the problems in Lebanon and was a sponsor of terrorism.   Israel almost lost the 1973 war where Syrian forces were one day away from spilling down into Israel before the United States sent replacement tanks for the 150 tanks lost in the Sinai.   It has always been the goal to destroy the nation state of Syria.  It was always the goal to destroy the nation state of Iraq.

So was anybody surprised that 47 senators wrote a letter to Iran under the direction of Israel.  Is anybody surprised that our policies, Israel's and Saudi Arabia's policies have consequences.   If you think President Obama is responsible for this forty year policy, you would be mistaken.  His biggest fault currently is his complete failure to deal with the human tragedy of our allies and our policies in Iraq, Afghanastan, and Syria.  Cut our military budget and let people in this world live in peace.  Let Saudi Arabia and Israel defend themselves, and when like in 1973 when they were at the brink of defeat, we will have their back, but no more kids dying and our wealth being poured down a rabbit hole because a country can openly buy our politicians....traitors all.   America first, and when we set our priorities correctly, Israel may finally have a path to peace.
