Oppose US Involvement in Syria

Oppose any American involvement in the Syrian war.  Yes, people died in a chemical attack and yes, some of them were children, but the United States has ignored similar tragedies in other countries.  What about the children who have died as a result of our drone attacks?  If the main reason for America getting involved is to stop horrible atrocities, perhaps we should first review some of our own policies. 


We cannot afford another war. Our armed forces are already stretched and 12 years of war and deployments have put an immeasurable burden on them. Thousands have lost their lives, while countless others suffer from physical and mental problems.  If we really want to support our troops we should oppose any involvement in Syria.  Our military has given enough. 

Finally, the most obvious reason to oppose involvement in Syria is that both sides are bad.  President Obama wants to disarm President Assad by supporting the Free Syrian Army, who is aligned with Al Qaeda.  Are we seriously talking about supporting the same terrorists we are currently fighting them in Iraq and Afghanistan? It’s almost comical.

Let’s not forget the almost 4,500 Americans who have died since the war on terror began or the over 32,000 who have been wounded.  
These soldiers were told that Al Qaeda was the enemy.  If the United States turned around and gave any aid of any kind to rebels who collaborate or, as some sources will tell you, are led by the very group our nation has been fighting so hard to eradicate, it would dishonor those Americans' sacrifice.
