The Lies Kerry Told [View all]

Yes, lies. Direct lies. Lies of omission. Lies that diminish inconvenient facts. Ludicrous hyperbole.

Some examples:

Kerry excludes many groups from the opposition. His definition of Syrian opposition excludes such groups as Jabhat al-Nusra and many others. They are not insignificant players. Fundamentalist now govern large swaths of the north.

Kerry claimed that Syrians are committed to a secular nation. Maybe most Syrians would prefer it, but there are certainly those who don't an they are actively involved.

He expressed "concern" that rebel groups could get their hands on chemical weapons. They already have. And Cruise missiles being fired in to Syria would do nothing to stop them from getting more.

Kerry "absolutely guaranteed" that if the U.S. doesn't strike Assad's regime, Israel will be attacked.

Assad's use of chemical weapons constitutes a threat to the U.S.
