Virginia state Senator Dick Black - about Sirya
 

In a lengthy interview, the Republican state senator connected the crisis in Syria to the actions of countries such as Saudi Arabia and Turkey, who he said have armed extremists like Islamic State militants that are fighting against the Syrian government. He also blamed US meddling in the Middle East for the rise of terror groups like Islamic State (IS, also known as ISIS/ISIL).

Haven't watched the video yet, but does he describe the "meddling" as something Obama did? Or does he put the blame squarely where it belongs?

I guess what I'm asking is this another Republican blaming Obama for all the shit his own party started?

The meddling in the middle East started way back in 1914, world war 1. It ramped up in the 50s.

Started before that. Google, T.E. Lawrence. Meddling was already in full swing by the time he arrived.

Google, "Christian Crusades" :thumbsup

He must hate his parents for giving him that name...

How about the surname...

Someone should inform him it was the US who armed them.

Dick Black? For real? Sane people can not give such a name to their child.

My Jr High football coach was named Richard "Dick" Head.

His name is like a subliminal thing. Genius by the parents if you ask me. When ladies hear his full name they expect a large black schlong.
