Tom, if you think I'm an "idiot" because I don't believe we should be killing MORE people with cruise missiles then so be it.
What do you personally think we are going to accomplish by killing MORE of those people?
Will they love us because we killed some more of them?
Now if we were going to send in CIA agents and assassinate their leader? Okay.
But of course our own heads of state don't want to do that because then it's open season on THEM.
No, they would much rather kill more of Syria's citizens with a "missile strike". That way they don't have to worry about a retaliatory assassination on their own sorry asses.
You can call me an "idiot" all day long. But I just don't see how killing MORE people is helpful to stop a guy from killing people. That doesn't make any goddamned sense at all.
And the thought that the United States Of America is in the business of attacking other sovereign nations who have NOT attacked us...is kinda fucked up. It's exactly what I was taught in school that we were "against".
