“A noninterventionist doesn’t pretend that they are all wise, that they can go into a country that has been in civil war, where there’s several different factions fighting and killing each other. There’s Christians getting killed by rebels and the Assad regime being blamed for doing this and that. I don’t believe it’s capable, morally, nor are we able to go in and say, we know who the good guys are. We know there’s three different groups on the rebels, but we know that we won’t give any help to the al Qaeda, we just have to punish Assad.
It’s a civil war and there’s no way you’re going to figure it out. I smell Iraq all over again.”
