We Will Never Fucking Learn

The Obama administration asked Congress on Thursday to authorize $500 million in direct U.S. military training and equipment for Syrian opposition fighters, a move that could significantly escalate U.S. involvement in Syria’s civil war.

The administration has said repeatedly in recent weeks that it was preparing additional assistance to vetted “moderate” opposition forces fighting both the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and extremists of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), who have now spread their area of control across the Syrian border into Iraq.

There are no "moderate" forces.

We have no allies there.

Training and arming has not been working out for us.

Just flush the fucking money down the toilet and stay out of it.

Apparently the Afghanistan "Lessons Learned" manual has been lost.......

"responsibility to protect"... wash... rinse... repeat.

Wrong assumption......you assume our policy is to promote stability.

Why do you believe that profanity enhances your post? It simply shows weakness and that even you can't support the point you are trying to make. Grow up.

Why would you think anything else?

President Barack Hussein Obama didn't know how many states we have much less where Iraq, Iran, Syria or Turkey are located.

He even believes still that if he is sweet to our enemies they will be sweet to us as well.  Just like Chicago politics.  Trouble is, no one told our enemies and they're rolling in the aisle.  Meanwhile our friends don't trust a word from this administration.

President George Bush won the war in Iraq and President Obama has worked hard and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory!

I wonder how much of that will be diverted to CIA operatives for intel? You can bet that this money will be pissed away just as Bush pissed our money away by sending pallet loads of U.S cash to the sandbox to win hearts and minds.

Please expand a little on what in hell you mean when you say GB "won the war in Iraq?" Please define the war you claim we won! Did we succeed in establishing an inclusive, functioning democracy who would be friendly to the U.S.?

Did Bush stop Iraqi patriots and Islamic jihadists from planting IEDs that were highly successful at killing and maiming our occupational forces?

Like I said, we can't wait for you to describe the war Mr. Bush allegedly won -- which, by the way, was the same war Dubya lied us into!

It sure is good to know your enemies!

Yes, as you well know, and it drives you nuts, the administration of President Barack Hussein Obama even claimed Iraq was won.

"Could Be One of the Great Achievements of This Administration" The vice president said he’d been to Iraq 17 times and visits the country every three months or so. "I know every one of the major players in all the segments of that society" he said. "It's impressed me. I've been impressed how they have been deciding to use the political process rather than guns to settle their differences."
- Vice President Joe Biden (D) Feb. 10, 2010

How has the war President Barack Hussein Obama said we SHOULD have been fighting going? How is the Middle East going now that President Obama is President? Oh, Afghanistan just crossed 2,330 American fatalities. Seventy percent of whom died since President Obama took office.
