Neocon High Priest McCain On Why We Must Bomb Syria

by | May 1, 2013

Senator John McCain warns us that if we do not start bombing Syria, pronto, on behaf of the Islamist extremists who run the insurgency, the average Syrian who is terrorized by these foreign funded fighters will seek us out and…well, do something bad to us. It is the big lie that the neocons peddle that people overseas are just itching for a US bombing campaign or drone strike to “liberate” them:

“The Syrian people are angry and bitter at the United States. I was in a refugee camp in Jordan, and there’re thousands of people and kids, and this woman who’s a school teacher said, ‘Senator McCain, you see these children here. They’re going to take revenge on those people who refuse to help them.’ They’re angry and bitter, and that legacy could last for a long time too, unless we assist them.”
-Sen. John McCain
