Horrible. We shouldn't send money to them, Ukraine or especially Israel. US throwing money all  over the world to help our corporations make more money at taxpayer expense is ridiculous. Our military is simply a steering wheel for corporate profits. They don't protect our own country at all.

Another example of the US supporting Islamist militant groups to further its goals in the region. Not that Assad is any better, but we should probably be neutral on this one.

Did anyone read the article?  It says not a thing about sending money.   "Senior officials" and "humanitarian aid"

The Assad family is terrible.  However, at least we knew what we were getting with them.  Who knows what springs up now?

I've wanted to see the Assad's gone a long time ago.  I have Lebanese family.  I also had a former co-worker who survived the Marine Barracks Bombing.  I blame Syria (along with several other nations/groups) for the mess that is Lebanon.  But I'm not sure Assad isn't better than a number of potential alternatives that we are looking at now.
