Arming the syrian rebels

Welp, looks like obama has decided that since arming the rebels in libya worked out so well, to give it another shot in syria. Thoughts?

But dont worry, we're only going to be arming the "moderates."

We don't need to get involved in that mess.  No good can come of it.  Man, that pic of John McCain posing with jihadists who we are opposed to was telling.  This is a guy who was photographed "hugging" the commander of the old Hanoi Hilton from Vietnam!


Sen. John McCain warmly greets Vietnamese Prime Minister Vo Van Kiet during a 1992 meeting in Hanoi, Vietnam. In 1965, Kiet ordered the executions of at least three American prisoners of war. McCain called Marine Robert Garwood, the last POW to emerge from Vietnam, a traitor.



Hugging Tran Trong Duyet the head guy at the Hanoi Hotel, the Vietnam prison camp where John McCain and many other American soldiers were held captive and (according to Duyet) NOT tortured at all.



With the Syrian Rebels just a few weeks ago with a man implicated in the kidnapping by Syrian rebels of 11 Lebanese Shi'ite pilgrims a year ago, a Lebanese newspaper said on Thursday.  Mohammad Nour - identified by two freed hostages as the chief spokesman and photographer for the Northern Storm brigade that kidnapped them.
