Locals say no to striking Syria
POSTED: 06:35 PM MDT Sep 05, 2013   Eastern Idahoans are raising
their voices against a possible military strike in Syria.
Wednesday a Senate Foreign Relations Committee approved a
resolution giving President Barack Obama limited authority to
launch military action in Syria.  The G-20 summit began
Thursday, and though the global economy will be the key talking
point, Syria will also be a topic of discussion.  As world
leaders arrived in St. Petersburg, Russia for the G-20 summit,
President Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin met over
dinner to discuss their differences about Syria.  "I think our
joint recognition that the use of chemical weapons in syria is
not only a tragedy, but also a violation of international law
that must be addressed," said President Obama.  Striking Syria
is striking a chord with locals. "We should not be over there,
no," said Ammon resident, David Hay.  "I don't think we should
interfere, it's not really our problem," said Rigby resident
