The guy who outright rails and screams at McCain is my hero of the week. And he fucking calls it. Were any average non-politician American in power, these shitheads would all be going to prison for treason, or at least going to court for it.
Also I remember that speech about the documentation that stated we're going to be committing operations throughout the middle east to destabilize it. The goal, as I recall, is to do away with the current government systems, which are entrenched and utterly despotic, in an attempt to open the region up to better trade and economic opportunities, in an attempt to kickstart the lagging global economy.
This thing about going to war in Syria, however, is just not a good idea. Even my brother, who is a very loyal soldier, is telling me that he's considering retiring if the US deploys troops there...and he's spent his entire career so far looking to a position in the brass. Idealist that he is, he has reasons for that outside of mere prestige.
