Again, it looks like the USA does not need evidence before acting.

Syria invited the OPCW and they will send a team to investigate. But now before any investigations and conclusions are done, the USA wants to play both the judge and the executioner.

This just proves that this has nothing to do with a possible "chemical attack". It's not about it. The US/Saudi/Israel and their sunni terror alliance wants to provoke a larger war in which Iran will be included.

Treating an ex-superpower like they ain't shit was a really bad move by the west. In the 90s, we broke promises to Russia not to expand NATO into Eastern Europe, then we slaughtered a bunch of Slavs in an unsanctioned war to set up a Muslim mafia state in Kosovo.

Right now it is simply offering limited unbrella protection to a client-state.

The big problem is deniability. The Syrian airforce has rebased significant assets to joint Russian-Syrian airbases and are actively patrolling coastal waters along with Russian aircraft.

A missile strike from the Med can face hostile fire in other words. So don't do that.

Just use the red sea or strategic bombers to launch from. Then it will just be the normal whack-a-mole saturation fire attacks were 40-50% of cruise missiles should survive to hit within a mile of their target.

Yeah they do, but not at the expense of the Wests major interest in preventing the use and proliferation of chemical weapons. These things are also not banned by a gentlemens agreement btw. Russia has signed Treaties with us saying they won't use or develop them, and actively assist in preventing their use and development.

What have they done instead? Used nerve agents on British Soil and are providing cover for one of their allies gassing a civilian population center. That is not just acting in bad faith, that is being deliberately provocative.

Are you suggesting that Russia ordered its allied rebels to intentionally shoot down a passenger airliner? If that had been the case, I'd be right with you, but I doubt that's what happened.

Russia hasn't been threatening nuclear war so much as reminding everyone that it does have nuclear weapons and won't hesitate to use them if things escalate to that point. It's saber-rattling but not a cause for alarm.

Russia shouldn't be using nerve agents on British soil, we're agreed there.

Rugian:

Firstly, there is no formal document or indeed any real evidence at all other than Russian claims that any assurances were ever provided RE admitting eastern block members to NATO. Indeed, what appears to be referred to is a promise not to reposition our forces, which NATO did not.

NATO only began doing that after increasing Russian force build ups and actions like testing air defences.

"That doesn't change the fact that it put Russia at a significant strategic disadvantage"

If gauranteeing the security of former soviet states puts Russia at a strategic disadvvantage, that can only be in so far as Russia continues to view their security as predicated on those countries being held at risk by Russia, which is not a reasonable expectation of Russia.

A country that slaughters their own people with gas attacks is hardly the good guys.

When Russia entered the war they attacked the good guys. Those being the people that America was supporting against a dictatorial and oppressive regime.

I'm not sure that Syria and/or Russia ever did anything against ISIS, they were too busy attacking the Kurds and others that were fighting for freedom from a second generation dictatorship.

You will forgive me if take the side of the underdog, my country was the underdog in a similar war once upon a time.


If President Trump is wrong then perhaps he is not the only one to make the same mistake.

"In August 2013, the government was suspected of using chemical weapons against its civilians. US Secretary of State John Kerry said it was "undeniable" that chemical weapons had been used in the country and that President Bashar al-Assad's forces had committed a "moral obscenity" against his own people. "Make no mistake," Kerry said. "President Obama believes there must be accountability for those who would use the world's most heinous weapon against the world's most vulnerable people. Nothing today is more serious, and nothing is receiving more serious scrutiny""

Those are the people I ***NEVER*** supported and never would under any circumstance.

These aren't peaceful, honorable revolutionaries. I don't know if you've bought the McCain and Graham lies. Even the ones who started in the "moderate" groups comprising the FSA, and offshoots, were easily swayed into joining terror groups like Al-Nusra (formerly a faction of Al-Qaeda before a split - regardless, Salafist scum):

http://www...y-rebels-defect-islamist-group

Either they were violent Islamists from the start, or they were willing to compromise their values and fight with terrorists. These "revolutionaries" were the same guys blowing up our troops and slaughtering each other wholesale in Iraq.

They don't coexist with Christians. They don't coexist with Jews. They don't coexist with Alawites, or Shiites in general. As pillz will tell you, even the Kurds are guilty of this to a lesser extent. If they're lucky, they're stripped of their possessions and expelled. More often they're hunted down like dogs and left in a ditch.

Assuming you are right, and I give you the benefit of the doubt, as far as the FSA is concerned let us say, wars make strange bedfellows.

Not sure how much you know about WWII, but we had a couple of very strange allies too. And they were even more bloodthirsty than Hitler was, and slaughtered more of their own people than Hitler never even dreamed of, as it turned out.


The only thing that convines me that Assad's troops carried out the gassing is that the gas was delivered by an aircraft. The opposing side does not have an air force.

Prove this is an error and I will gladly give you credit.


So, assuming Assad did deliver the gas then he must be punished to the maximum. No country can be allowed to use gas as a weapon.

I am sure the US is ready to send investigators to check up on the claims made before it goes to war.

There was absolutely no reason for the regime to use chlorine even if they had weaponized it.

There are tons of reason for any number of insurgent grouplets to expose people to gas, or fake such exposure.

The "storing chemicals" at likely sites is just a nice way putting it. No reason not to believe a grouplet did not actively release gas, or fake gas exposure.

Imagine if it was this easy to determine if its propaganda or not. Looks like the UN doesn’t need an impartial investigation here. The spokesperson only needs to say that it is propaganda.


UN: Central African Republic corpse protest was propaganda

The UN says protesters who placed corpses in front of their headquarters in the Central African Republic (CAR) were using the bodies for "propaganda".

"Some people are using dead bodies... to say that we have killed civilians," a UN spokesman told the BBC.

On Wednesday, demonstrators calling for an end to violence put 17 bodies outside the UN building in Bangui.

They said the dead were innocent civilians killed in clashes between UN troops and armed groups.

But the UN says the dead were armed criminals who had been targeting peacekeepers and government soldiers.

"They shot at our peacekeepers and we returned fire," UN spokesman Vladimir Monteiro said. "The bodies resulted from the clashes."

"We condemn the fact that some people are using dead bodies for a kind of propaganda," he added.

The US is now thinking of holding the area they currently hold in order to keep the peace, hopefully.

Naturally, in order to hold it, they will have to move in a holding force of troops and Armor and they will probably put a carrier somewhere close by.
