@AhmadMetallic: There's a fair bit of tension in the topic and my post is there to give everyone a clear idea of what is expected of them for this topic to continue to stay open.
I think some folks need to chill out, I understand this is a touchy subject for people who may have friends or family within the conflict zone or who may come from the countries involved.
But the site rules still apply and nobody wants this discussion to escalate into a flame war. There's a lot of talk about a ceasefire to the conflict so I suggest people consider the same for this discussion, agree to disagree at the very least.
But to a certain extent if they're spending more time chasing tail than on running a country or serving in political office then I'd question if they're in the right sort of job.
If they can't be honest and faithful to their spouses then how can we trust them to be honest and faithful to the electorate and people of the country they serve?
That said politicians are no different to regular people, they're open to the same temptations as the rest of us so in that respect I voted No in the poll. But if you're political leader is someone on par with the likes of Silvio Berlusconi of Italy you have to raise an eyebrow and ask yourself if he's using his position to help the people he serves or just to keep his bed warm.
