The NeoCons will have their war no matter who must die. We are about to jump off the cliff with the no-fly in Syria. The Syrians are likely to have a relatively robust Russian surface to air defense system operational and ready to try against the NATO aircraft.....we are at the cusp of a WW.

No kidding I’m so freaking tired of this stupidity that I can’t see straight. Just like Egypt, we give them billions and they are caught on open mic talking about their war against us.

Do these Syrian chemical weapons include Saddam's old stockpiles, or were they acquired elsewhere?

Did Saddam have enough chemical weapons to justify moving them to Syria?

I'm still in the dark as to how many chemical weapons Saddam had. The left would have us believe that there were virtually none. Where does the truth lie, and is this what Syria is using?

What specific chemical WMD agents were used ?
When were they used ?
Where were they used ?
What type of delivery system was used ?
How can they specifically trace that delivery system to the Syrian Army ?
How can they specifically trace the chemical compound to the Syrian Army ?

Yes, and Assad is winning and will slaughter that many 0b0z0 allies if they don’t leave Syria!

0c0ward will never, ever challenge Russia, China and Iran, period!

The Caliphate project will be stopped dead. Just wait for an “Arab summer” that will melt the 0h0m0llah’s installed Ikhwan allies.

Its a shame, but I don't believe anything coming out of this regime. They lied about Libya, in fact they've lied about just about everything they are involved in. Gun-running to Mexico, you name it.

So I'm not inclined to take their word about chemical weapons because whatever the truth is, the people informing us have no particular allegiance to truth. They will say whatever serves their agenda of the moment.

On the one hand, you have Syria who is Iran's catspaw. Toppling Assad means denying Iran its window to the Mediterranean. That's a worthy goal.

Then you have the rebels, who include AlQaeda, and who have been slaughtering Christians.

The President has been clear that the use of chemical weapons – or the transfer of chemical weapons to terrorist groups – is a red line for the United States

You would think slaughtering Christians would be some kind of red line.
