Syria

[Scott34]

OK, then we launch rockets with "precise accuracy" that kill innocent civilians.  It's lose, lose.  

 

And sending troops really wasn't my point.  Why don't we send cruisers and destroyers to Africa, then?

 

Show me the African using chemical weapons.

[mtangelsfan]

Why is killing people with chemical weapons any different that killing them with axes, machetes or guns?

 

Again, what do we think to accomplish?  Are we going to take down that government?  If so, then what?

 

We cannot keep doing this.

[HaloCory22]

We should just build a giant dome over the US and then nuke everyone else and start over.

[TobiasFunke]

Scott, what do you think the U.S. Government should do in response to supposed chemical weapons being used on civilians?

[Lhalo]

How many times do I have to say no boots on the ground?

Like the CIA doesn't already have "boots on the ground" in Syria. LOL

[Angel Oracle]

We need to stay out of this.

That being said, the Assad family is a bunch of cowards!

[HaloCory22]

Make them watch the Angels.

No crap, haha the CIA is everywhere.

I'm in favor of Cruise missile strikes to take out Assad's ability to launch CW attacks.  Also, take out his major runways and brigades that launch SCUDs, etc.

[VariousCrap]

That's just simply not true.  More like 10%, and the vast majority of the rebels are Syrians fighting for their country.

 

 

100% bull shit.

[VariousCrap]

Why is killing people with chemical weapons any different that killing them with axes, machetes or guns?

 

 

 

 

The better question is where is the proof that Syria's government used chemical weapons on the rebels aka Al Queda???

 

There is no proof.  We are just supposed to believe it like with WMDs in Iraq.

So then you are for assisting the Syrian rebels in their fight against the current government?

[VariousCrap]

So then you are for assisting the Syrian rebels in their fight against the current government?

 

 

 

Yes.  He fully supports Al Qaeda in Syria.

Yes.

[Scott34]

Yes.  He fully supports Al Qaeda in Syria.

 

Have you ever heard of the Free Syrian Army?  The SMC?

[VariousCrap]

They've all been taken over by Al Qaeda.  Over 50% of the "rebels" are now Al Qaeda.  What started as an Arab Spring has turned into an Al Qaeda take over.

[Scott34]

Where do you think all of the Syrian fighters and army defectors have gone?  They haven't vanished.  They are fighting for their country.

[VariousCrap]

Bull shit.  They have been leaving the country by the thousands.  Ever since the Arab Spring was taken over by Al Qaeda.  The ones who remain support their government and its military.

 

I bet you were one of the people who believed Iraq was going to have WMDs too.

Go ask the average Tunisian, Yemeni, Libyan if the Arab Spring was taken over by Al Qaeda. 

 

 

"The ones who remain support their government and its military."

 

 

That simply isn't true.

[VariousCrap]

I said the Arab Spring in Syria has been taken over by Al Qaeda.  Even the FSA has fought side by side with jihadists.

 

And yes, it is simply true.

[TobiasFunke]

Yes.

 

So are you for American military support of rebels in other countries around the world that are being brutally oppressed by their current regime?

[Scott34]

I said the Arab Spring in Syria has been taken over by Al Qaeda.  Even the FSA has fought side by side with jihadists.

 

And yes, it is simply true.

 

That isn't what you said.

 

 

So you're telling me the hundreds gassed in Ghouta were Assad supporters?

The rebels aka Al Qaeda were behind the recent chemical weapons attacks.  It is a well known fact that they have them because some of them got busted Turkey with them.  It was done to bring the US into this war.  There is absolutely zero evidence the Syrian government was behind it.  None.

 

This is a way Al Qaeda gets our money, our weapons and drains our resources even more.

So why then did they gas some of their own fighters?  Also, sketchy reports from Turkish media don't really hold much credibility with me.
