    Bernie Sanders can't bring himself to condemn the Syria airstrike on principle: his only objection is proceduralhttps://www.sanders.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/sanders-statement-on-us-missile-strike-in-syria …

        It's easy to condemn "regime change" and "war in the Middle East" in general terms. When push comes to shove, specifics are what matters.

        Sanders expressing "concern" and calling for a plan for a "political solution" is absolutely NOT a direct condemnation of the strikes.

        Michael Tracey Retweeted Senator Brian Schatz

        It's easy to communicate "opposition" in clear terms: 1) https://twitter.com/TulsiPress/status/850198159372427266 … 2) https://twitter.com/SenBrianSchatz/status/850196630666002439 … Sanders has not done so. Sorry.

        Calling for a "political solution" was the tactic used by Dems during the Iraq War to avoid taking a principled opposition stance.

        Not just procedural: "I’m deeply concerned that these strikes could lead to the United States once again being dragged back..."

        I don't see anything wrong with being measured and nuanced. This is not a simple situation with Bad vs. Good. Why try and make it that?

        He can be as "nuanced" as he wants, but people should recognize that he has not condemned or stated opposition to the strikes.

        He's speaking in general terms there about "quagmires." He does NOT specifically condemn the Syria strike in the statement.

        I disagree with your take on this. Bernie is being reasonable & putting the onus on Trump to justify this. Bernie has always been like this.

        My reading of his statement is him having an objection on principal.

        ...that's clearly not his "only objection," and a unilateral strike is clearly not what he considers a solution 🤔
