Syrian rebels claim that the army of President Bashar Assad again used poison gas in an attack on rebel forces in the Damascus area Thursday, an Israel Radio report said.

The report was based on rebel sources, who said the attack took place in the Jobar neighborhood of the capital. The rebel sources said they could not tell what kind of chemical weaponry had been used, but that it was a poison gas of some kind, and was causing injuries, including breathing difficulties.

Which ones the ones that behead Christians or the Al-Qaeda ones?

I know. Obama Syria policy is a two legged stool: Moral outrage and a pipe dream called political process.

It is like watching children lie. Children who have no boundaries and believe everyone is as stupid as they are.

...and why not? Assad knows that Putin has his back.

Now the fun & games really get interesting.

Screw over Obama (easy to do) and rub it in his face, then do it all over again - no fear of US attack or enforcement.

After all, Kerry is speaking with Lavrov...this is diplomacy at it’s best. One side continues to prepare for war while the other plays golf or does some yachting...

questioning the motives of those involved...the ‘rebels’ have more a reason to create martyrs...

Sorry, have to disagree.

I think Ø has more of a motive for gas to be used than any of {Assad, AQ rebels, Good rebels}. My money is on Ø arranging for it to be used. To Ø, it's a face-saving Putin-stabbing way out.

Throw logic and reason out the window...we’re dealing with Arabs and Muslims so your Western concepts do not apply.

“Syrian rebels claim...

Well there’s a reputable source. Which ones the ones that behead Christians or the Al-Qaeda ones? “

Good question,

are these the “good rebels” that are besties with McCain or the “bad” rebels Kerry says they are not engaging with?

We should keep in mind throughout all of this what Dinesh D’Souza (see 2016: Obama’s America) says motivates 0bama: he wants American to no longer be the worlds sole super-power. He’s been looking pretty successful lately.

Wouldn’t surprise me in the least if odumbo had something to do with this assuming it is true. HE wants this war and will do whatever he can to keep the heat on in Syria so he can say, “I told you so”. His ego is too large to let this past. Keeping the Syrian issue alive also takes away the constant drumming at home about his numerous “phony” scandals.

Isn’t ironic that the left and the MSM kept spouting the “Bush lied us into war...” lie while Obama may now be doing it for real. How these people sleep at night is beyond me.

the worst atrocity that assad could commit is to force the rebels to get on moochelle obama’s lunch program.
