On Tuesday, Sen. Ted Cruz distilled the current debate over possible military action in Syria to its essential dilemma. While Syrian President Bashar Assad is certainly a ruthless dictator, the forces aligned against him are dominated by jihadis and elements of terrorist organizations. Cruz noted that Americans didn't enlist in the military to "serve as Al-Qaeda's Air Force."
“We certainly don’t have a dog in the fight,” Cruz said, calling it a civil war in Syria. “We should be focused on defending the United States of America. That’s why young men and women sign up to join the military, not to, as you know, serve as Al Qaeda’s air force.”

The ruling class of FDRs day made us the air force and supply depot for Stalin's armies. And todays ruling class makes us the same for Mohammed's armies. The blog "Gates of Vienna" has a good video piece by Diana West on her new book and the comparison of these two armies. At this time it is the third article down and the video link is at the words, "look at this women". View the long form of the video, it is excellent history.
