Being Hindu, Hawaiian or a veteran is no excuse for whitewashing the worst systematic mass atrocities since the Holocaust, which are still ongoing now in Assad’s dungeons. It’s not about labels. It’s about @TulsiGabbard lacking the moral clarity to represent America.https://twitter.com/VanJones68/status/1093324238180806656 …

You are deflecting again. Straw man: Only "enemies" deserve our attention, action, etc. He is an enemy of humanity. In the Holocaust, for years we concluded Hitler was not "our" enemy, while he slaughtered innocents. We should have done more then. We should do more now.

Not a straw man, considering the "not an enemy" point is what precipitated the exchange with Van Jones that you tweet-quoted. Now that you've repeatedly invoked the Holocaust, it's probably time to conclude this discussion.

Assad is a threat to democratic principles in a part of the world where democratic principles are in short supply. We should not condone any leader/country murdering and oppressing their citizens. We sacrifice the moral high ground and lose our ability to influence. So, yes.

That's not accurate. When she refused to identify him as an enemy of the United States, she was asked if he could be considered an adversary. She demurred, and then went on to say that maybe it wasn't him who gassed his own people.

He is not an adversary either

Iran is much more guilty of killing US troops and it is an ally of Assad so she we go to war with Iran?
