European Tribune - Comments - US Transporting Georgian Troops Out of Iraq to Fight Russia

US Transporting Georgian Troops Out of Iraq to Fight Russia | 31 comments (31 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

Obama had a problem with the Iraq War because he thought it was the wrong war. Not because he though war is wrong.
That's an important difference lost on many of his supporters.

Lost on them? Or one they agree with?

Both ... I have seen supporters ... (4.00 / 3)

... of Obama's policy as such, and supporters of some imagined Obama-the-pacifist-at-heart policy. And once it becomes a mass football game played with words, no telling which of the former and which of the latter sincerely mean it.

I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
