I agree,Putin has to be Planning,the only leverage we had against Russian overt action In Syria is playing the Weapons of Mass destruction game against Syria. Will the World Community defend Assad and their Russian Backers Use of these weapons?

Yes , we have gone to war against Weapons of Mass Destruction before .

I would not be surprized that the rebels would detonate supplies of gas on their own populace .. and blame the Syrian nationals . Don’t forget that these are the same who use their own women to hide behind , place rockets in school yards and next to hospitals and playgrounds.
Our own government is no more honest than the rebels whom they have supplied , given “ Fast and Furious “ , Benghazi , etc.
I will await confirmation news from foreign sources.

Isn’t the headline intentionally misleading by the NYT? US approved? Really? Did the congress approve arming the rebels? I think not. This was Obama and his cohorts, not The United States of America.

Can anyone confirm or explain the extent of Russian military resources on - the - ground in Syria? Canada Free Press reportedly mentioned there are presently 100,000 Russian troops stationed there?

If so, a NATO and US response to WMDs will trigger ?

Benghazi is Obama’s international version of “Fast and Furious.” He and Hillary supplied guns to the “freedom fighters,” who of course, were Islamist jihadis and promptly used U.S. supplied weapons to kill the four Americans Obama betrayed there.

Of course, none of this could come out before the election, so the corrupt press sat on the story and is still covering it up. Someday, it will be published as “old news” that has no relevance to the newest “crisis” manufactured by the Left to keep the nation distracted as freedom perishes in the land.

When you give a weapon to a Muslim you are supplying Al Quaeda with weapons.

It’s that simple.

As I recall someone here predicted that the regime,ours, would accuse Assad of using poisonous gas when in reality its the freedom fighters of Syria(terrorists) who in fact will use them and then blame assad.It was all predicted here.
