Could a rebel dropped Chemical Weapon lead to war

Okay Freeper Family, you know President Obama is itching to pull the trigger on Syria to deflect from his failed policies and train wreak administration, but something about all the evidence of a Syrian Government Chemical Attack just does not pass the smell test.

Many of you know I am a veterans and here is where I need some of my fellow vets to help me understand something. Mr. Kerry in his push for action stated that less than 1,500 people were killed in a government launched chemical attack, now that is a very low number of deaths from a chemical shells or bombs dropped, the amount kinetic energy released in both cases would have lead to a great number of deaths as the surrounding building would have has a fog effect on the agents once released hanging low to the ground.

Now I have seen film of mishandling of weapons from WW2 and peace time accidents, while in the NAVY and this seems to a classic case of just that as the low number of deaths and lack of surrounding damage to the target area.

Don’t know if this means anything, but upwards of 10,000 people died in Bhopal and it has a population density that is only about one sixth as great as Damascus proper, according to Wiki. All other things being equal (wind speed and direction, lethality of the agent, amount of the agent, etc.), and they are probably not equal in this case, you would, indeed, expect a greater number of deaths in Damascus.

All I know for certain is Obama is leading and nobody is following.

Me too. Especial the last line. “We don’t know” is a bad reason to start shooting at them.

Amen ... if it was assad it should be proved beyond We don’t Know, and I have no doubt zer0 and his crowd do not know either. Maybe there is a chance to stop this insanity or maybe not ... Truth is I do not know but am willing to give sanity a chance. Hope our congress is willing to give sanity a chance. Time is not on our side but perhaps God still is. No doubt ... will soon find out.

The way I see it, a healthy dose of the insanity is on our side of the pond.

Great Britain pleasantly surprised me. Glad they did. May sanity migrate this way out of our mother country. Could be the Angel of Maggie paid a visit. Maybe the Angel of Ronnie is on the way. One can still pray and I am praying Cyber.

found a link but my anti-virus is block my viewing of Mint Press. Should be fairly easy to see if you encounter same results I did from previous search engine. Typed in Mint Press and Headline and on second page was the Mint Press link.

Bhopal was a huge leak, it happened noiselessly in the dead of night, and there wasn’t a war going on. I don’t think they can be compared fully. But it is useful to contemplate because of the factors you mention. Also that lake in the Congo that burped and killed a whole village.

And I don’t call what Obastard is doing “leading.” He made a stupid, off-the-script remark as a way to puff himself up during an election (IOW, a typical Obastard lie), and history has a way of turning around and biting you on the duff for that. The purpose of all of this theatre we’re seeing is to backfill that blunder.

My question is, “Who has greater reason(s) to use chemical warfare against civilians and children and why?” ..... the rebels or Assad. “Who would have the most to gain?”

Follow The Money

Sunni Muslims have been at war with Shiite Muslims for over a thousand years and no one paid attention to them killing each other, so why all of a sudden has our President taken sides in this Muslim domestic disturbance? One thing I’ve learned over the years is that when an issue like this just doesn’t make any sense, all you have to do is “follow the money” and it will all come into focus.

The first clue came in when I saw our President publicly bow and scrape before the King of Saudi Arabia (a Sunni Muslim). Could it have been because the King of Saudi Arabia financed Obama’s campaign? Remember, there are still large sums of money in Obama’s campaign coffers that haven’t been adequately explained.

If the King of Saudi Arabia now “owns” our President, it could explain why Obama has sided with the King’s Sunni Muslim rebels against Syria’s Shiite government, and it could also explain why Obama has prevented the development of U.S. oil resources and has effectively “killed” coal in the U.S. in order to keep our country dependent on foreign oil.

There is an article on Alex Jones' website that purports to be from Syrian "rebels" claiming that Saudi Arabia provided them chemical weapons, but failed to tell them that the weapons were chemical and failed to train them in handling the weapons. They were used without understanding what it was that they were firing. A bit like a monkey with a grenade. See the link for the details.

Not necessarily mishandling — quite possibly deliberate deployment in a mode which would decrease casualties. Remember that the (Sunni Muslim) Bosniaks shelled their own people in Sarajevo (the conclusion of Japanese investigators who had no axe to grind in the Balkans), knowing that NATO would blame the Serbs and intervene on their behalf. Obama’s “red line” rhetoric set up a situation where the Syrian branch of AQ had the same expectations, provided the atrocity blamed on Assad involved chemical weapons.

That’s a very high number of dead from an obvious nerve gas attack. It is very likely that the gas was delivered from aircraft or trucks and highly unlikely that it came from weapons improvised by guerrillas. Many of the victims were in dwellings separate from each other. It’s not politically expedient, but that’s the truth.
