(21,115 posts)If Obama has the technology to do that ( and I believe he does have the techology to surgically strike those sites) and if he feels it necessary to prevent an even bigger massacre...an I am positive he is a pragmatic man. But as my President who I put my confidence in when I voted for him...if he feels it must be done to prevent an even more horrific tragic scene (and believe me ...has has seen even more horrific pictures than we have). Considering that 78% of the entire world's chemical weapons have been destroyed....since 98% of the world has agreed to that treaty and since Assad is one of the remaining 2%...he has shown he has no business possessing those weapons anymore. Not to mention there are other nefarious groups in the area involved that we also do not want to see get their hands on those weapons....If that is what he has decided has to be done....then I support it.
There what are you going to do....call me a Republican or a Teabagger a warmonger....which one is it? Cause funny last I checked...I voted democrat...support democrats...even registered as a Democrat. I hang out at Democratic Underground....because that is what I am. I am not hanging around a political site pretending I support government when my core principles are against them all.
So go ahead bring it....
