Jon Stewart Mercilessly Slams Syria ‘Red Line,’ GOP Hawks: Did You Learn Nothing From Iraq?



VIDEO here: http://www.mediaite.com/tv/jon-stewart-mercilessly-slams-syria-red-line-gop-hawks-did-you-learn-nothing-from-iraq/


Jon Stewart took on the issue of Syria crossing the “red line” in its potential usage of chemical weapons against its own people. Stewart focused mostly on the Republican response to this unacceptable red line crossing, calling out their militaristic attitude for not having learned anything from Iraq. Stewart highlighted a few similarities between the current situation with Syria and the one almost ten years ago from Iraq, and found it odd that Republicans haven’t realized they might want to exercise more caution this time around.
