I have no interest in a tiny backwater country called Syria. A place where I will never visit in my whole life.

If you are paying taxes that fully support our MIC, you should be concerned. You should be concerned that your direct support has enabled an uninvited army to invade a sovereign country and murder those citizens.
We should all be concerned.

And like I said, if we pull out of Syria then we'll probably just replace it with another country. If I'm wrong then call me out on it, but history has shown that the MIC has been in control of our presidents in the past, I don't think it's any different here especially seeing how Trump just talked about raising their budget even more.

That doesn't make their residents any less human though. To say that a country's economic output defines whether their people deserve war or not is disgusting. That's like saying your next door neighbor who is struggling deserves to have his house burned down because he doesn't make enough money.

That is the reality of the world. Small countries are pawns of big countries.

Well, the fact that half the country suddenly no longer wants "borders" nor respects them at all kinda puts a damper on the whole thing.

We know you want a Civil War, you've been brainwashed into seeing things as black and white and are itching to pull your trigger. You've taken the bait, while you gear up for war I'll be going to the grocery store and holding the door for people whether they're left or right and I'm sure I'll have the favor returned. I'll be saying "have a great day" while getting the same in return.
You need to get off the internet and turn your TV off, it's obvious that you need some time to reflect because you've been radicalized.

I would recommend it, you seem to be carrying a lot of animosity for things that probably don't even affect you in real life. Calling for civil war would be seen as bat# crazy if you were in public. But... you have your online safe space to spew that garbage so you do.
Oh well, have a good one. Hope you don't shoot anyone with your itchy trigger finger.
