More than likely he sent them to Syria before we attacked. But I digest...

There are many reasons we went, however typing all the intricate details and facts enumerating the reasons would sadly be lost on this forum. Hell, 34.45% would be unable to comprehend the text.
I mentioned us buying things online just trying to say that even though we are over here we do things to support the american economy.
