Comparing Syria to Iraq

[IndependentinWis]

I continue to see Neo-Cons on this message board comparing the reason for Obama has for taking military actions against the Government of Syria to that of Bush taking action against Iraq. I think it is a obvious case of comparing oranges to apples. In Syria we have a chemical attack against civilians, an obvious use of a WMD. In Iraq we had the Bush team telling us that the Government of Iraq had WMD's and they were going to use them against our country and they didn't. IN fact the inspectors that were sent to Iraq in the months before the war were never able to find any and we have never found any since that time. A real use of a WMD, which could eventually threaten Israel if something isn't done to give the Syrians and the Iranians the message we are willing to strike compared to a trumped up threat by Cheney and Bush. Like I said, comparing apples to oranges.

...the pubs would not publicly agree with Obama - look how they vilify Christie...

...I thought bush was wrong for invading Iraq and I think Obama is wrong on the Syria Civil War...

...today the Arab League is all for someone else cleaning up an Arab mess. I say screw them, let them put this A$$ad in-line - they have the money, the training and the weapons we sold them...
