Unsurprised

I'm sure the United States had a good reason for killing eight Syrian civilians. Besides, Syria's got no business wanting to take Golan Heights back from Israel. How dare anyone attempt to split God's designated land?

I have been wondering for weeks what military stunt might be pulled at the last minute, inspired by a desperate Republican party. McCain's real material advantage (since it's just too hard to spin the abortion issue as an imminent national threat) is his military "experience," and the only way left to galvanize a gullible American public right before the election is to present a situation requiring a war-monger's instincts.

Even if we have to pick a fight.
