The so called military/industrial complex is ultimately led by the
Commander-in-Chief, i.e., your president, who rumor has it, is about
to provide active support to the Syrian civil war. Let's hope he
gets it right. I have my doubts. We have about as many friends in
Syria as we do in Egypt, Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq.


I don't see any way to get it right in Syria, since the forces in
opposition to the government are militants who probably will engage in
the same sort of killing as the current regime does.

There are plenty of Egyptians who love America and Americans. I know
some. I don't know anything, really, about Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq.
