Syria & The US

3824 Views 26 Replies 14 Participants Last post by  Rigged for Quiet
So if you read the circus called the news... The world expects the US to act militarily, after our president opened his mouth about red lines.

My question is... and I understand terrible things are happening there... But where are the Brits, the Germans the French, etc etc... all jumping in saying hey we will lead this charge, we send you in for all the other f'ing messes then blame you yankies for your recklessness.. where are all these f'ing countries expecting us to step up to the plate, why aren't they doing it if they feel so strongly...

Just irritated as hell.. damned if we do, damned if we don't.

Syrian Government says the rebels are lying. The rebels say the Syrian Government is lying. I believe them both!

We should leave Syria to it's own affairs. Let them kill as many of each other as they want. As long as the do not kill any Americans.
When they are done and one side is the winner. If and only if it is our interest, we give them a call and see if we can do business.
If fact why not air drop a few C-5's of small arms into the place labeled to who ever gets them first. Man that would give CNN and MSNBC some evening news.
Have you ever gone to MOPP level 3 or 4 in the desert? Talk about miserable.
7 days a week, 13-18 hrs a day, on and off for three months. Well over 100 deg. EVERY day. It's an "experience"! :D :D :D

For the first few weeks the suit feels claustrophobic. By the time we got back, it felt unnatural to NOT be enclosed in rubber, soaking in puddles of sweat!

More than ANYTHING though, I just missed the colors green and red while over there! EEEEEVERYTHING EEEEEVERYWHERE is tan! Little wonder their suicidal lunatics! :D

NEXT TIME WE NEED TO JUST DROP THE NUKE!

How many of you that wore full MOPP in the dessert had the though that if I have to wear this one more hour I would rather take my chances?
I know I did and so did many of our soldiers.
There was a movie some Marines were playing football with NBC mask on in the dessert, I laugh out loud when I saw that because I seen it done so many times, we did not have a football so we used a MRE. you can drop kick one.
We really need to stay out of Syria it is not our land it is not our fight and they have not come after us yet. If my sons are to do a 5th deployment in that god forsaken part of the world there needs to be a better reason than Obama needs a distraction.

I could easily see China and Russia saying, some day, enough is enough. The America's are a nice market place for our goods but they need to leave
our pupets alone.

Alternatively Addad is not Hussein, not osama, and not some Libyan dictator. He is western educated, a doctor I believe, and not about to swing at
the end of rope, be taken down by a seal team or executed on the side of a road. While I think its most likely his population will drive him out and
he'll retire near a shopping mall in Georgia (Russia) (his wife likes to shop apparently) its quite possible this man will engage the United States if
the United States engages him. I know I would - if I were him- I'd find a military colonel, recruit a few dozen English speaking soldiers, and send
them to the US. The havoc they could cause in this nation would bring our economy to our knees and he could even deny deny deny like a BJ
Clinton taught him how.

When I look at the middle east, it is simply a losing battle.

They hate us, they hate each other, and like a colony of ants they will go after whoever pisses them off the most, which at the moment is us.
I think anyone with half a brain knows if we get involved, and get on the opposite side of Russia on this, World War III, game over for everyone.

I could easily see NK, Iran, Russia, Syria, Iraq, Egypt, China, and half a dozen other no name countries, saying **** you, western powers.

I feel like we have women, children, and elderly to save in our own country. We need to get our own house in order, cause right now Obama
is chiseling away at the foundation with a jackhammer, and we are just teetering now.

I have studied a lot of history, I understand what decisions, and actions led up to where we are now. The best thing we could do is pull out,
and fix ourselves before we bleed out.

B een there done that. I can tell you that civilians don't seem see the humor in it when a few guys wear them and a few other guys wear full Ant C's for halloween costumes......... O6's like it even less when the guilty parties range from E6 to O3, lol.

There may have been alcohol involved.
