This is why obama must act against syria

[dilloduck]

Name one country whose best interests would be served by giving chemical weapons to Assad's opponents in Syria - especially if it was ever traced back?

Turkey - NO
Iran - NO
Iraq - NO
Israel - NO
Russia - NO

Wrong oh mustard gas breath------a chemical attack is the signal for American intervention which benefits Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Turkey, Mercenaries, big oil etc etc.

Turkey - already has 450,000 Syrian refugees in Turkey, why would they want more?

Israel - its already dealing with a destabilized Egypt and Jordan flooded with Syrian refugees
- as much as it dislikes Assad, he's preferable to a Syrian civil war or a new regime controlled by Islamic extremists

big oil - there are no big oil reserves in Syria

Saudi Arabia - wouldn't risk chemical weapons and rockets falling into the hands of extremist groups like Al Qaeda

Jordan - over 1 million Syrian refugees in Jordan

Iraq - approximately 200 000 Syrian refugees

All the Refugees can go home after America assists the "rebels" in killing Assad.

Syria does have oil reserves and is a pathway fro a proposed strategic pipeline.

"The primary perpetrator of violence is the government of Bashar al-Assad, which controls public resources, the media, the army and the intelligence services. The civilians who rose up against that regime, first peacefully and then through armed resistance, constitute a broad spectrum of Syrian society.

When a government murders its own citizens and they resist, this can hardly be called a civil war. It is a barbaric campaign of the first degree."

=======================

My greatest hope is that syria is attacked and assad killed, and then on to iran...

Can't agree with you; there is no need for the US to have a dog in every fight. Especially this one where there is no preference between the warring factions.

Where is the PROOF? Have YOU seen it? Has it been verified as authentic?

Funny how the Times avoids using words like "jihad" or "Alqueda" so they refer to the rebels as a "broad spectrum". Our own administration can't seem to get the story straight. Kerry is calling for something he claims will be a "small strike" and the president can't seem to act unless he calls Putin for advice. What happens when we put the "broad spectrum" in charge? Barry Hussein will be eating pizza while another American ambassador is murdered in Syria?

CNN calls them "activists" and "demonstrators" while they cut out the hearts of Syrian police and military and eat them.

Can't make shit shit up.
