No War In Syria

No War In Syria

Well, there's already quite a nasty one, isn't there? These people were demonstrating near the Hispanic Festival against US military involvement in Syria. The black and yellow shirt on the man on the left says Tyranny Response Team. Referring to Syria or this country? How to respond?

Lots of people (including me) think  that our country has no good options in this morass. Tolerate the use of appalling chemical weapons or risk greater instability in Syria? No exit, as some French guy said.

  1. The russians are very good at playing chess and thinking in advance. I hope that Obama will become a good chess player also and not to much a cowboy who shoots first and then is asking questions although he has his heart on the right place.

  2. you are right about no good options. I hear a lot of politicians criticizing the President. I do not hear many of them giving a consistent, coherent strategy for what should be done.

  5. There' no easy solution to this. Now the focus will be on the Russia/Us talks and meanwhile the war against the Syrian people will continue.
