You read into her statement. She didn't acknowledge that at all. BOTH SIDES have done horrific things. Neither side is innocent.

In my view, that conflict has 3 parties (not 2):

1. Dictatorial thugs
2. Rebels
3. External thugs and terrorists pretending to be rebels

From this perspective, I'd say #2 is innocent, while the other 2 totally aren't. As for me reading into her statement, I mean which party is most likely going to be aggressive about U.S. military intervention?

Gross oversimplification. There are also thousands of people who are not involved in either side.

Have you been to Detroit? There's so many innocent people dying and so many houses being torched! When is Assad going to bomb America and save those people? Or should it be Italy?
Or how about they fix their own problems.

I'm confused. Are you talking about the cannibals, the ones that were slaughtering civilians, or the ones that launched the bomb at the civilian bus?
Maybe it was just bad photographers cause i totally did miss the angel wings on the rebels or anyone else fighting over there.

"We the people of the United States..." - So when did the people turn into only 9% of the people? I totally did miss that too.
Well, Obama finally backed off. I hope he backs all the way off to Altzheimers and leaves the White House so we can have a real President.

It's completely different in the U.S. The easiest example I can think of is, how about you being put behind the bars for saying there are some miserable households in Detroit? Would you be saying it's a free country then? That's what that dictatorship used to be like (and now it's not coz it's too busy with the war) - not only did it make people's lives miserable, but it also told them HOW to live and WHAT to think.

Did you notice the third side I mentioned? It pretty much includes all of the categories you're talking about. They're as nasty as the dictatorial regime thugs are, I agree.

If you're a rebel fighting for a better way for your country, fighting against the oppressive system, why in the world would you turn into a cannibal or attack civilians??? That doesn't even make sense.

And by the way, I'm no big fan of Obama either.
