Kerry's irresponsible statement
2015-03-18
[ARABNEWS] I don't understand how an official like the US Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you know Kerry
Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat, conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State...
could say that Bashir al-Assad could be accepted because he needed him in the fight against the terrorist organization, Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS).

#5  Give him a break, he's trying to look presidential. Granted, it's a very, very low bar.

#4  He along with every member of this regime should be in leg-irons breaking rocks for the next 50 yrs.

Now that is a nice image. Kerry, Obama, Holder, Michelle (and throw in a few RINOs too!) spending 20 years breaking big rocks into little rocks.
