      I’m sure they did, considering the uprising during the Arab Spring against Assad’s murderous regime. But I never took you as an advocate for US interventionism!

        I’m not sure a democratic uprising Obama didn’t support and a civil war that has lasted 12 years and counting are great examples of Obama inspiring hope.
