hillary clinton both supported arming the syrian rebels, the islamic rebels, against assad. i wouldn t have done that. they also supported toppling gadhafi and libya. so really the interesting thing is, is while obama gets blamed for not intervening enough, he s actually intervened quite a bit in the middle east. and i think not to our benefit. and so i wouldn t arm the rebels in syria. i wouldn t have toppled gadhafi. and we continue to sell arms to saudi arabia, which continues to be sort of an arsonist in that region, fanning the flames. you know, just yesterday executing a shiite cleric which i think is going to erupt into more problems in saudi arabia. so, i think my foreign policy is quite a bit different. i also don t believe in giving foreign aid to people who are enemies, and supplying weapons to the allies of al qaeda, as obama has. right. so really i m kind of the opposite. the interesting thing is the grahams and the mccains have been on the same side as obama, they jus
is that president obama and hillary clinton both supported arming the syrian rebels, the islamic rebels, against assad. i wouldn t have done that. they also supported toppling gadhafi and libya. so really the interesting thing is, is while obama gets blamed for not intervening enough, he s actually intervened quite a bit in the middle east. and i think not to our benefit. and so i wouldn t arm the rebels in syria. i wouldn t have toppled gadhafi. and we continue to sell arms to saudi arabia, which continues to be sort of an arsonist in that region, fanning the flames. you know, just yesterday executing a shiite cleric which i think is going to erupt into more problems in saudi arabia. so, i think my foreign policy is quite a bit different. i also don t believe in giving foreign aid to people who are enemies, and supplying weapons to the allies of al qaeda, as obama has. right. so really i m kind of the opposite. the interesting thing is the grahams and the mccains have been on the
the russians, so you have russia, cuba, and iran all arm corporate welfare and pork and then leadership joined with in arm, and anyone who believes harry reid and the democrats to do that. russia is fighting against then leadership voted to fund obamacare. terrorism, i m got a bridge to then they voted to fund amnesty. sell you. then they voted to fund planned parenthood and then republican they re propping up assad but you said you re okay with that. i don t think we should prop leadership took the lead confirming loretta lynch as up assad, either. but here s the problem. attorney general. you have people who view foreign policy you look at some of chuck, which one of those the republicans, for example, decisions is one iota different than what would have happened who supported hillary clinton s under harry reid and the democrats? disastrous libya policy. the truth of the matter is republican leadership are the most effective democrat leaders toppling gadhafi? we ve ever seen. t
mandate why sunnis didn t go to the polls but you are basically going against the very democratic principles we ve been arguing for there and elsewhere around the world. such is the crisis in iraq. richard engel, you know it better than anyone. i don t know if the u.s. would necessarily what we d probably see here is a reformation of the government. because he s prime minister but also has a variety of portfolios. the government was supposed to be reformed anyway. so there could be a legal framework. isn t like we d be moving in and toppling gadhafi. the government needs to be resorted anyway. you d resort the government. remove maliki. put somebody else from his same coalition in his place. that would probably be the legal justification. like i said, there are meetings about this very subject happening in this country right now. and it s so timely because they were in the process of kraefting a government, a process that usually takes forever and a day in iraq in the iraqi
unintended consequences that created the problems. your reaction? my guess is if he were here, he would not say all republicans cause i m sure he wouldn t be including me in that group. but what i would say is that the point is that with libya, and i made the same point, many of the people who wanted to be involved in libya also wanted to support gadhafi with arms the year before and then they were for toppling gadhafi the next year, that this eagerness to get involved in a war sometimes has unintended consequences. i think it s still yet to be determined what happens in libya, whether the government that takes over is more pro-american or less pro-american than the previous government. same exists in egypt and the same exists in syria, while assad is a bad guy in syria, i m also worried about al-qaeda taking over the country and actually being more enemies of israel than the current regime. brian: right. i love what you re doing, trying to get that doctor out that helped us get b
