Palin on Syria: 'Let Allah Sort It Out'

by Breitbart News 15 Jun 2013 2347 post a comment

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin said until the United States has a Commander-in-Chief who knows what he is doing, America should stay out of the mess in the Middle East.  "Until we have someone who knows what they’re doing, I say let Allah sort it out,” Palin said, in reference to the Obama administration's decision last week to arm Syrian rebels. She made her comments while headlining the Faith and Freedom Coalition conference in Washington, D.C on Saturday.

Palin asked, "militarily, where is our Commander-in-Chief?"

She noted America is "talking" about "more new interventions" in "radical Islamic countries" where both sides are slaughtering each other" by crossing "arbitrary red lines" while screaming "Allah Akbar."

Palin noted that these countries do not even respect "basic human rights."

Here is Palin's quote in full:

“Militarily, where is our commander-in-chief? We’re talking now more new interventions. I say until we know what we’re doing, until we have a commander-in-chief who knows what he’s doing, well, let these radical Islamic countries who aren’t even respecting basic human rights, where both sides are slaughtering each other as they scream over an arbitrary red line, ‘Allah Akbar,’ I say until we have someone who knows what they’re doing, I say let Allah sort it out."

This Appeared Here…..

My Take – One of the things that is missing from this debate is highlighted in this comment from someone with the handle - greatnesslostislegend – after someone called FuzzysDaddy called Palin an idiot talking to a wingnut audience claiming “she's a loser and always will be.”  In response greatnesslostislegend says: “Since the Syrian conflict began the "rebels" have killed nearly 45,000 Christians, injuring double that, and nearly 200,000 have fled the country. It is cleansing Islam style, and guess which side Obama his supporting?.....Look at Obama's background. What in his stated education prepares him for something like Syria? With math and science marks considerably poorer than Sarah Palin's (Obama's own words) just who is an idiot here?”   

The question I keep asking myself is: Why isn’t this clear an act of genocide – or at the very least a form of ethnic cleansing - a highlighted feature on the news each and every night?
