Do you think your country should go to Syria?

Should we step in, in every situation? Or would that spread us too thin to adequately defend ourselves in case of a real threat to our country?

I think it is abundantly clear that we cannot fix what is wrong throughout the Middle East. Their issues are centuries in the making. I doubt that we will have any truly lasting impact on Iraq and Afghanistan after over a decade of being involved. Did we help? Yes, but at what cost to us, and are we willing to pay the price, again and again and again?

I think we need to condemn their actions, and take a step back. Not declaring war does not mean we don't give a damn.


This.

(and incidentally only time I've ever 100% agreed with Holly over something political, which speaks volumes about how little support I think there is for us interfering).
