In case you had any doubt about what a buffoon John Kerry is, this should settle it:
KERRY: Well, we don’t know what action we are engaged in right now, but they have been quite significant. I mean, very significant. In fact, some of them have said that if the U.S. is prepared to go do the whole thing, the way we’ve done it previously in other places, they’ll carry that cost. That’s how dedicated they are to this. Obviously, that is not in the cards and nobody is talking about it, but they are talking about taking seriously getting this job done.
That was his response to a question about how supportive Arab nations are about action in Syria.
They'll pay the costs... if we "go do the whole thing". So we're mercenaries now? Shouldn't Kerry have been at least a little insulted by such an offer? Who made it? Bear in mind, this is John Kerry- renowned anti-war activist.
