Former governor of Alaska and vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin gave her two cents about President Barack Obama's decision to arm Syrian opposition forces over the weekend.
Palin, who recently rejoined Fox News as a political commentator and contributor, spoke at a Faith and Freedom Coalition Conference in Washington D.C. on Saturday and Sunday.
In her speech, she bashed President Obama, who announced last week that Syria's Assad-run government used chemical weapons in their nearly three-year-long war with rebel forces. Because of the regime's use of such nerve agents as sarin against the opposition, the White House said that it will provide direct military support to the rebel army.
But Palin stated she doesn't think that arming the opposition, nor providing funds to the rebel forces, will solve the problem. Instead, she called on another leader to figure out the situation in Syria.
"Until we have a commander in chief who knows what he's doing...let these radical Islamic countries who aren't even respecting basic human rights, where both sides are slaughtering each other as they scream over an arbitrary red line, 'Allah Akbar,' I say, until we have someone who knows what they're doing, I say, let Allah sort it out!" Palin cried, amid chuckles and cheers from the conservative audience at the Faith and Freedom Coalition.
Palin also issued a warning to Republican "good old boy," political leaders who are pleading that right-wing activists calm their menacing rhetoric.
"You do not marginalize, you don't discredit and dismiss, every day average hard-working Americans-those who are part of that grass-roots tea party movement," she said.
Later, she claimed that she refused to, "just let them tell us to sit down and shut up," in reference to the aforementioned GOP leaders.
Palin is returning to Fox as a political analyst only a half a year after she left the media outlet.
