Re: Syria - US ships move in!
I doubt he will do that, at the moment when he leaves office he can say none of his fault it was people stopping him, if he goes ahead he has no excuse if it all goes wrong. And I think he is cleverer than to leave him self open to that sort of criticism.

I don't mind helping others but what about the people in our country that are going hungry and cold because they're too afraid of eating enough or putting the heating on and ending up with bills they can't pay.

I personally hope we don't, but trust me... if we don't... it's not because of what England decided.
The USA wether we like it or not is a world peacekeeper,just the threat of Americas military might is enough to stop other countries trying it on,and its a thankless job,all these people who deride America should just imagine a world without them?
WE would not have any life,Germany would of conquered Britain as they already had done in Europe,I would be speaking Japanese now and be getting my pension paid in "yen",no it is better to have the USA as an ally than as an enemy!
God Bless America!

Re: Syria - US ships move in!
Whether you use chemical weapons or drop a bomb on them or carve them up with a machete you wind up with dead people.So crossing this imaginary red line is nonsense.
Just build a big wall around it and let them sort it out - after all why should our soldiers get killed for these warmongering tribes - whatever you do they will keep on fighting even if they resettle into another country they will keep on fighting once they build up in numbers.
