Let Syria give aid to themselves or let them join the U.S. and pay taxes for aid! Mexico has been plagued by the mafia forever and they are our neighbors, but we do not offer them any aid! Maybe that would solve the illegals problem on the border if we liberated Mexico from the mob.

It's the New Trumpian Order..also we need more massive tax cuts for the 1% and more money for the Pentagon..don'tcha know..

Perhaps you are not aware but the US has invaded 20 + countries since the second world war, and if you think about it, how many countries have invaded the US? So when talking about "value of a human life" in the context of the US that is a oxymoron but what can one expect from a country that is happy to deny millions upon millions of its own citizens health care.

your country funded the entire civil war sometimes on BOTH sides. aid equals arms . didn't you know that?

It is a sad fact that some people have a narrow definition of what constitutes "a human life" that usually involves, place of birth, colour of skin, language spoken, gender and the name of your imaginary sky father.

I was once told in all seriousness by a then friend, that he was incapable of thinking of any other life lost in a war as being as important or worth anything more than a passing acknowledgement if the deceased was not American, Christian and white.
American blood apparently is liquid gold; everyone else's veins are filled with putrid slime.

Hasnt Trump just made it clear that people who support Syria are losers?

This seems to be a world wide phenomenon. Sadly.

I wouldn't say "we", because we don't have a say. It's our leaders.

I read that share values for Lockheed Martin went up after missiles were fired into Syria. People got rich.

That's the bottom line. Politicians don't represent us.

You would think that if you are going to bomb a place to rubble you would at least take in the survivors as refugees, that courtesy was even afforded to the Nazis. War is a business now, strictly profit oriented.

Look no further than the orange piece of shit that resides in the WH, and the
republican Congress.
There is no regard for human life. Unless, of course, they're talking about
eliminating access to healthcare. By which, I mean women having access to abortion.
In that case, they're all about the "sanctity of life".

Perhaps because parts of Syria is a part of greater Israel.

Because Trump is a Russophile.
