Thread: Military intervention in Syria

^Why not? They have no business there imo. My personal "Red Line." Keep the fucking UN inspectors on a leash and keep them in pens that serve to safeguard humanity from bureaucrats who fight wars on paper.

BTW, Whats an weapons inspector worth these days?

Not the Al Qaeda jihadists? You can be sure there have been war crimes on both sides, but I haven't heard of the regime carrying out public beheadings & burnings, or ethnic cleansing on religious grounds.

US Secretary of State John Kerry said the UN demonstrated that "diplomacy can be so powerful that it can peacefully defuse the worst weapons of war".

They have business there because Assad said they have.

So I don't suppose your opinion really matters a jot.

Actually Harry, you're wrong. If I held a gun to your head would you refuse inspectors? I dare say your answer would be bring a whole cart load.

Whose going to destroy all those nasty little chemical weapons? Russia no doubt. Out one door and back in the other.

Futile efforts by the UN to play cop again.

Anyone have a clue what happened to Sadam's WMD?

Dunno, many experts presume cos they never found any that the "cupboard" was bare ,however many people thought that Saddam shipped them off to Syria , I mean lets have it right he had plenty of time did'nt he Interesting article http://www.examiner.com/article/syri...s-missing-wmds

Imagine that, he sent them over the border to his mate in Syria?

Anyway the Saviour doesn't need to intervene in Syria, all he has to do is stay out and let Qatar and Saudi supply the terrorists.

I'm sure these local proxies for US generosity towards AQ are gobsmacked that their weapons reached the Jihadists...

There is no gun to Assad's head. The Russians proposed this deal to remove it, and have at least created the impression that Assad agreed to it.

If he's lying, he gets bombed.

Not that hard to understand, is it?

He sent a nice thank you letter to the USA for supplying them and then gassed 5,000 people.

You forget, Bureaucrats never run out of "Gas." Paper only serves to impress some form of "Right by Law." Blowing smoke endlessly is their profession and only purpose in life.

More like Parasites than humans.

Hey, Britain and America, just a reminder that your pals are doing a really good job for you in Syria-


Syria: massacre reports emerge from Assad's Alawite heartland
"When we got into the village of Balouta I saw a baby's head hanging from a tree. There was a woman's body which had been sliced in half from head to toe and each half was hanging from separate apple trees. It made me feel I wanted to do something wild," he recalled.

Ali, a member of the regular army, said he also saw the baby's head. "We found two mass graves with 140 bodies. They were not shot. They had their throats slit.

Yep, a Syrian soldier would know all about this kind of shit, wouldn't he?

^^ They didnt use gas though, so fair play.

Go, Obama, go! Make you agenda clear to the world in a way that makes even your hardcore media supporters wince.

If Obama hasn't learned not to mess with serious players like Iran and Russia, Assad will send his WMD back to Iraq till the investigators leave.

Great case. Israel has them but doesn't use them, while her Muslim neighbours don't have them but use them. Well done.

They don't need to, America does their dirty work for them, foots the bill and then gives them 3 Bil a year for the privilege.

I see the Americans have popped into Libya and Somalia...

Looks like the Somalia one was botched.
