Syria: Chemical weapons

At the risk of beginning a political discussion, I'm not sure why the US should do a damn thing. Bad things are going to happen in the world, especially that part of the world. It's not our job to police everything.

Very true, and hard not to relate this to politics, but...

Agree, but within a discussion I was having last night, can the U.S. just be a bystander and watch as another smaller country crumbles?

Just seeing how stock prices are going to fall gas prices set to rise.. it seems no matter where something bad occurs it drastically effects us.

I agree with you 100%.. but gasing your own people, its wrong, its soo wrong, I think we need to bomb him and his military back to the stone age, then let them figure it out for themselves. Having an international coalition is key though.

Let the UN handle it. We'll help as a member, but this doesn't need to be just our problem. And our "help" should consist of cruise missles and drones. No boots on the ground in another desert. We've been playing that game for too long.

^This.

Chuck you nailed it, brother. Without telling a sob story, I handed out $5.5 million dollars cash in Iraq during reconstruction and humanitarian relief. Then I came home, and the nation was $12 Trillion in debt. I felt like (and still feel like) a traitor to my nation.

I hope we continue to focus on domestic issues, and technological advances here at home.

No boots on the ground is right! We are NOT a world police. I don't mind helping the international community but our guys don't always have to be getting shot at.

Trying to not make this a political talk...

I can assure you, the US will not have any boots (i.e. soldiers) on the ground.. although, thats not necissarily true, we do have intel sources in syria doing their thing inside of syria.

You know, when I hear the crap the NSA pulls on us collecting data...I can't help but think they just might know something the general public doesn't, which is what they do best to begin with lol. It's hard to know who is blowing smoke up my rear these days. Don't get me wrong I LOVE my country 100%! Damn it if there isn't things that make me go hmmm who do we support though?!?
