Exactly. And Russia's a democracy to boot.
SUre it is. You are free to vote for who you are told to vote for. In reality Russia is nothing but a giant criminal organization that just over runs countries when it pleases.

Liar, that was your rebels doing that ****, like all graduates of the School of Americas.
So, you're OK with the whole chem warfare on civilians thing.Supporting the mercenaries allowed the war to drag on. Fighting Assad head on or supporting him can be said to both be more moral since at least the war could end sooner and people could get on with their lives. Supporting mercenaries just feeds a never-ending process.

Good point. They never did figure out with certainty who used the gas if I remember correctly.
As far as I can tell, it's a democracy. As for illegally invading countries, Russia is just as guilty of that as we are. Pot, meet kettle.
I'm going by my memory of the media coverage of the gas attacks at the time. It could be wrong though.You're kidding, right?
Or is this agreement with megahurts representative of your thoughts on the subject?
OK, Britain, France, Israel, Germany, the U.S., the EU, and the Arab League laid the chemical attacks at Assad's doorstep.I'm going by my memory of the media coverage of the gas attacks at the time. It could be wrong though.
Either way though, one could argue on the morality of supporting a dictator for the sake of stability over taking our sweet time to overthrow him.
In other words, we owe it to the people to put an end to the war fast. Support him, topple him, but let's not drag our feet with mercenaries.
Putin used to be head of the KGB. That is not democracy.
Heck, I thought you'd go with the fact that George H.W. Bush was the Director of the CIA.He was also born in a different country. He was born raised taught and worked in the USSR, a completely different country when he was in the KGB.

Nah, it's just a thugocracy.You ever see a Zebra change its stripes? Russia is still an evil empire.

Russia said the reports were biased and the conclusions invalid.
You be the judge.
Oh, sorry, Assad also denied it, and why would he lie?
Heck, I thought you'd go with the fact that George H.W. Bush was the Director of the CIA.
Then the left will accuse us of imposing our will on a third rate sh!thole.
[Just as we have to judge Bush Sr. the CIA director separately from the president, same with Putin.]
The other option is to stay out of it.
Personally, I'm for staying out of it. Always was. We never did know the players well enough to make smart decisions, as we've recently proved.I'd be tempted to believe the first group. So why not just topple him then. Even if he is guilty, a years-long civil war is still more cruel than supporting him. Either destroy that government or defend it for the sake of stability for the oeoole, but let's not drag our feet on it with mercenaries.
Nope. The CIA is how bush Sr.& jr "won"

And if we chose to stay out of it, why not befriend Russia in trade agreements, etc. After all, we trade with China, don't we?
