Dennis Kucinich Visits Middle Eastern Terror State To Praise It For Accepting Iraq Refugees
And then from there tells the world that he won’t be visiting the troops in Iraq because the war is illegal, and he won’t be gracing the occupation with his presence.
After praising Syria following a meeting in Damascus with President Bashar Assad, Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich declared he will not visit troops in Iraq during his Middle East tour because he considers the American military presence in Iraq to be illegal.
“I feel the United States is engaging in an illegal occupation ... I don’t want to bless that occupation with my presence,” Kucinich said in Lebanon, according to the Associated Press. “I will not do it.”
The Ohio congressman accused the Bush administration of destabilizing the Middle East and praised Syria for receiving Iraqi refugees.
“What most people are not aware of is that Syria has taken in more than 1.5 million Iraqi refugees,” Kucinich said, according to the AP. “The Syrian government has actually shown a lot of compassion in keeping its doors open and being a host for so many refugees.”
What’s sad is that you just know Kucinich is saying what a lot of more mainstream Democrat politicians (and even Presidential candidates) are thinking but aren’t about to say out loud.
