    You know good and well that Spec-Ops raids and CIA involvement is not direct involvement by US ground forces. We have learned that we cannot impose our will in civil wars by invasions and occupation. We have to back local forces willing to fight with airpower and special ops and that is exactly what we are doing.

    A few weeks ago you guys were bemoaning the Russians getting involved and said that we should be doing more. Now that we are, you moan that we are doing too much. Well, make up your mind.

    You missed the point. While I do not agree that we should be there in any form so was the opinion of fearless leader. He even listed all the reasons why we should not, could not, WOULD not ever put boots on the ground there and it sounded as if our very own amigo had his ear. Now that he has turned 180° and decided "well, maybe we can send a few" it is funny to see the fluffers line up and say "well now it is a good idea"

    That is all

    Situations evolve. And when they do the polices must be adaptive. This is not a place for rigid ideology.
