With American military intervention into the Syrian civil war - TopicsExpress



          

With American military intervention into the Syrian civil war looming on the horizon, Americans would do well to remember what then-Secretary of State John Quincy Adams told Congress on July 4, 1821: "Wherever the standard of freedom and independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will her heart, her benedictions and her prayers be. But she goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own. She will recommend the general cause, by the countenance of her voice, and the benignant sympathy of her example."
