No Ken i NEVER said he gave them to Syria.. I was talking of the ME as a whole. Sorry you dont understand english.
At 8:28 you said:
Why is he supplying Syria with weapinry as Israel fights against Syria.. Hell why are we supplying ANYTHING to ANYONE other than our OWN PEOPLE right now?
Geee Ken,, what do you think those "rebels" are buying with the 60 million? Ray ban glasses perhaps??
Ron, you can't have it both ways: are you saying the US is giving weapons to Syria (that would be the gov't, not the rebels), as you've stated, or are they not, as you've stated?
PARIS — The United States and several other nations want to increase support for Syrian rebels, partly to help political moderates counter the increasingly well-organized network of humanitarian and political services being offered by extremists, Secretary of State John F. Kerry said Wednesday.
The United States is one of about a dozen nations preparing a package of broader financial and practical support for the rebels fighting to oust Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Kerry and other diplomats will frame the new help during meetings with Syrian political opposition leaders Thursday in Rome. The additional aid is expected to stop short of the weapons the rebels have long sought from Western backers.
Secondly, the United States and others want to help the Syrian Opposition Coalition better meet the needs of civilians, Kerry said, a reference to the absence of basic government and humanitarian services in many rebel-held areas of the country. The void has been filled in some places by the al-Nusra Front, an Islamist group the United States calls a terrorist organization.
There are at least three competing factions within the Syrian rebel camp. At least two have allegiances to Hezbollah and Hamas/Iran. How naive can one be to think that aid in any form will give us a net return on our investment in any tangible form? I have Syrian Christian friends and they just roll their eyes when this comes up. And they almost go into hysterics when the idea is broached that our aid will not be used to both buy weaponry as well as line the pockets of certain of the 'freedom' fighters. Get real!
edit:
I should add that my friends have no doubt that whichever faction prevails
will mercilessly persecute the remaining Christians far worse than Assad did.
your full of poop Doc... It was announced friday that Obama has the larget defecti increase in presidential history..
and This IS his 2nd term.. He PROMISED to reduce the ORIGINAL defecit by HALF his first term.. Instead he increased it to a RECORD level..
rong rong wrong
You have no idea what you're talking about, it just exposes what you are, a kneejerk right wing nut job
The debt HAS increased to record levels, $16 trillion
The deficit has been cut by Obama, to the lowest level in relation to GDP since Clinton
I know your dumb, but just maybe, I can teach you something
Debt is how much we owe, $16 trillion, and 90% of it was run up by Republicans, and the other 10% was spent cleaning up Republican messes
The deficit is how much we spend compared to how much revenue taxes bring in, less than $1 trillion now.
Obama has cut that, and would have surpluses if Congress approved his budget, all the budgets they proposed increase the deficit, and cut social services.
so once again, the deficit spending is due to Republicans, they always spend more than they tax, "deficits don't matter" starting with Reagan
90% of America wants to raise taxes and cut spending so we can reduce the deficit, and pay down the debt, But The Republicans won't allow it,. Why? because the Banks make More Money and hence the bribes to Congress are greater
So hence, It is You Rong that is to blame more than Obama, for voting for Republicans for Congress
At least Obama tried, you are working to make sure he fails to keep his promises, and hence, to bring on the failure of America
Base,, a RUTHLESS dictator is what Obama helped install in Egypt.. And the Example of Iran IS EXACLTY what im talking about. What we give today WILL BE used against us shortly down the road. No matter where,, Syria, Iran, Afghanistan, Packistan Russia,, the list goes on.
The US taught the world to walk softly and carry a big stick. Why is our stick (tomahawks) now obsolete? Where are our new supersonic cruise missiles?
If Egypt dictator cannot buy them from us he will purchase some from India.
India's BrahMos Cruise Missile a supersonic sea skimming ship killer that
no defending systems can stop its mach 3 low level terminal
S- maneuver attack.
The words deficit and debt are different, Can you understand this simple concept!!!!!
did you read what I had posted before? .. NO, why not?
They are 2 different words, that mean different things, that you cannot use at random and have a debate on the subject with others that Know what the words mean
Obama has decreased the deficit, Fact
The debt is at record levels, $16 Trillion, Fact
Obama has Little control over it because of Republicans, Fact
Yet he has decreased the deficit, so He HAS Reduced the deficit as he has promised, even though the Republicans have worked against him.
I'm not the only one who finds this to be true… out of touch is the least thing I'd say about the right/conservative/reboobligoon
Let us know!
