Things are getting really bad-US is not only broke but in debt 2 trillion dollars and now the military will be pimped out for the oil cartels in mid east-why sacrifice life and limb? Will the us troops be paid more as mercenaries?
Secretary of State John Kerry said at Wednesday’s hearing that Arab counties have offered to pay for the entirety of unseating President Bashar al-Assad if the United States took the lead militarily.
“With respect to Arab countries offering to bear costs and to assess, the answer is profoundly yes,” Kerry said. “They have. That offer is on the table.”
Asked by Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.) about how much those countries would contribute, Kerry said they have offered to pay for all of a full invasion.
“In fact, some of them have said that if the United States is prepared to go do the whole thing the way we’ve done it previously in other places, they’ll carry that cost,” Kerry said. “That’s how dedicated they are at this. That’s not in the cards, and nobody’s talking about it, but they’re talking in serious ways about getting this done.

"The blood is the life!" - from actor Gary Oldman, in his role as Dracula in Bram Stokers Dracula: Love Never Dies. John Kerry obviously still has Dracula's blood in his veins. I'm waiting for his eyes to turn into coin-slots.
