(62,325 posts)and some of our 'allies' don't have the stomach to repeat the horrible travesty they got themselves involved in Iraq and Afghanistan and wherever else we dragged then to. The same thing would have happened. I cheered when Parliament, surprisingly because they have a long, long, long history of invading other countries, finally said 'no'. Probably because the Brits are still trying to nail Tony Blair for his lies so politicians there are a bit more wary than ours who have no fear of accountability.
I'm hoping more of our 'allies' at least our Western allies, do the same thing. We still have all those other allies unfortunately, like Bahrain dictatorship and the Saudis who are thrilled to send their troops to invade other countries on our behalf.
But Syria was a small glimmer, too late for all those who already died, of hope that at least some of our allies have had enough of the killing and torture and the hell that is war.
