***I agree with this Democrat on this issue*** Kucinich: The Real Reason We Are Bombing Syria Submitted by Allegory on Thu, 09/25/2014 - 12:14 in Peace / War Quicklink by Dennis Kucinich Nothing better illustrates the bankruptcy of the Obama administrations foreign policy than funding groups that turn on the U.S. again and again, a neo-con fueled cycle of profits for war makers and destruction of ever-shifting enemies.
