America pointed the finger of blame at the Syrian regime last night for the chemical weapons attack on civilians that has horrified the world. The US State Department said Syrian rebels did not have the means to carry out an outrage on the scale seen in the Damascus suburbs on Wednesday--lleaving tyrant Bashar Al Assad firmly in the dock. Amid signs that the West is rapidly moving closer to intervention in Syrias bloody civil war, Barack Obama ordered US intelligence agencies to urgently gather evidence about the attack, which killed up to 1,700 civilians, many of them women and children.

I suppose the blood of 1300 innocents is not too high a price to pay for the new Caliphate.
The only way the MB is going to stay alive after Egypt is something like this happening.

One *also* remembers the market mortar attack in Bosnia during the height of the violence attending the break up of Yugoslavia. Done by the folks who were 'fighting' for the civilians killed in that attack. Done for the reason of waving the bloody shirt to get 'the West' on their side. It worked.

Where’s the thread showing the same dead girl as a victim of 3 different attacks?
Their investigation will find whatever they want it to find, they will report whatever they want to report, and thus take whatever action they want to take. What a joke.

How PR Sold the War in the Persian Gulf
>>>In fact, the most emotionally moving testimony on October 10 came from a 15-year-old Kuwaiti girl, known only by her first name of Nayirah. According to the Caucus, Nayirahs full name was being kept confidential to prevent Iraqi reprisals against her family in occupied Kuwait. Sobbing, she described what she had seen with her own eyes in a hospital in Kuwait City. Her written testimony was passed out in a media kit prepared by Citizens for a Free Kuwait. I volunteered at the al-Addan hospital, Nayirah said. While I was there, I saw the Iraqi soldiers come into the hospital with guns, and go into the room where ... babies were in incubators. They took the babies out of the incubators, took the incubators, and left the babies on the cold floor to die.83<<<
>>>At the Human Rights Caucus, however, Hill & Knowlton and Congressman Lantos had failed to reveal that Nayirah was a member of the Kuwaiti Royal Family. Her father, in fact, was Saud Nasir al-Sabah, Kuwaits Ambassador to the US, who sat listening in the hearing room during her testimony. The Caucus also failed to reveal that H&K vice-president Lauri Fitz-Pegado had coached Nayirah in what even the Kuwaitis own investigators later confirmed was false testimony.<<<
>>>Following the war, human rights investigators attempted to confirm Nayirahs story and could find no witnesses or other evidence to support it. Amnesty International, which had fallen for the story, was forced to issue an embarrassing retraction. Nayirah herself was unavailable for comment. This is the first allegation Ive had that she was the ambassadors daughter, said Human Rights Caucus co-chair John Porter. Yes, I think people ... were entitled to know the source of her testimony. When journalists for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation asked Nasir al-Sabah for permission to question Nayirah about her story, the ambassador angrily refused.86<<<
Considering what the MB’s been doing in Egypt, I have little doubt that the “rebels” aka jihadis/AQ in Syria did it so they can blame Assad’s guys and garner US backing.
If the US sends (more) weapons to these freaks — that means our government is solidly on the side of the demons who flew the planes into the WTC. I mean, they already are, but this cements it.
Have you read Daniel Greenfield’s recent article about the Republican Party? Really explains a lot. Oh - and this comment by Spaulding, really hits the bullseye. It was posted on FR around a week ago.
This comment by Spaulding clarified things for me, thought you’d like it:
(Yet another courtesy ping to Spaulding)

Someone asked: John McCain who was born in the Canal Zone. That was resolved by noting that the Canal Zone was a US territory at the time McCain was born.?
Spaulding: Actually, Megan, you have been led to believe that McCain was eligible, and that was the plan, but McCain’s ineligibility was explained by Dem law professor from the U of Arizona, Gabriel Chin, and paraded in the WaPo and NYT until Obama became the candidate in 2008, With Obama running McCain’s ineligibility provided cover and neither candidate was vetted. Even Calero, a non-citizen, ran in many states.
The technicality had to do with sovereign territory. Only Congress can designate sovereign territory, and does it explicitly for each case other than the obvious embassies and consular offices. They hadn’t yet designated the Canal Zone sovereign territory when McCain was born, and finally did so in 1937, the year after McCain was born. We often find the use of technicalities insufferable, but that is our law.
There could have been, and should have been an amendment extending Article II Section 1 for children of military citizens. The Democrats understood that and Senator Obama and campaign co-chair McCaskill sponsored Senate Bill 2678, the Children of Military Families Natural Born Citizen Act in February 2008. But it failed to pass.
Ted Cruz fails eligibility for the same reason Obama told us, knowing that few would understand, that he is a naturalized citizen. Obama said “I am a native-born citizen of the U.S. That is the language of the 14th amendment. American Indians were native-born, and not made citizens. U.S. code based upon the 14th Amendment, a naturalization amendment, made Obama and Cruz, citizens at birth, because their mothers were citizens, but could not make them natural born citizens, as Wong Kim Ark resolved. The 14th Amendment using Article 1 Section 8, Congress authority to create An Uniform Rule for Naturalization. The 14th Amendment’s author made it absolutely clear that his bill (S61) did not touch natural born citizenship, nor did it mention it. Here is what Congressman John Bingham said to the House in 1866:
“I find no fault with the introductory clause [S 61 Bill], which is simply declaratory of what is written in the Constitution, that every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen .,/blockquote”
Ted Cruz is entitled to U.S. Citizenship, as is Obama, but neither is a natural born citizen. Republicans seem to have a preference for naturalized citizens in the oval office, beginning with McCain, then Jindal, then Haley, then Rubio and now Cruz. Why do you think that is, with seasoned veterans like Suzanne Martinez, Sarah Palin, Alan West, Jim Dement, Louis Gomert, Michelle Bachmann..., all natural born citizens? Could it be the damage to the brand when honest discussion reveals that they traded McCain’s ineligibility for silence about Obamas honest admission to having been naturalized?
We know about McCain, but could Rubio and Jindal, and now Cruz, be more malleable when special favors are required for friends of the mainstream republicans. Who would be more likely to consent to continue supporting the Muslim Brotherhood that McCain is working to return to power in Egypt, Rubio or Cruz, or Allen West, who fought the Muslim Brotherhood? With a Muslim Brother as Director of the CIA, and Muslim Sister as senior aide to Sec. of State Hillary, and Muslim Brother sponsor, Grover Norquist controlling lobbying plums to “Conservatives”, who would Republicans find easier to work with, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, or Michelle Bachmann, who was savaged by McCain and Graham for suggesting an investigation into Huma’s lifelong association with the Muslim Brotherhood?
Mobs and massive media suppression of public opinion do not amend the Constitution in a constitutional republic. Cruz has played cute with questions about eligibility, another Harvard Law grad who says he doesn’t know the law and will leave it to the (corrupt) courts to decide. Alwaleed bin-Talal ‘donated twenty million dollars to Harvard just about as Barack was admitted. Look at control over our economy the Saudi Family possess, using Obama to block the Keystone pipeline and fund hundreds of complete boondoggles like Solyndra, and our money to keep major Saudi investments afloat, Citibank, GE, Google, Cisco, and News Corp (Fox and WSJ), ... Levin, whose reputation is based upon knowing the law, but who blatantly cited a repealed statute, the 1790 Naturalization Act, the same ploy used by Larry Tribe for Obama’s stage show, Senate Res. 511, April 2008, to provide the media with talking points covering McCain’s ineligibility to hide his own. The 1790 Act was repealed in 1795, a fact both Tribe and Levin failed to mention. We must find legislators, executives and judges who will know, as well as preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.
C’mon you guys! The important thing is American influence. Exceptionalism. And all that good stuff. You act like you’ve never watched Bill Kristol on Fox or McCain & Graham every Sunday. So, let’s send some other people’s kids off to die for ... uh ... whatever it is that’s so darn important in Godforsaken Syria. You’re not ISOLATIONIST are you? /s
This is false flag operation by the rebels to force the Us and Europe to intervene on their behalf now that Assad is kicking the snot out of them and their Muslim Brotherhood supporters in Egypt have been kicked out of office.
This staged attack is going to be Obama’s Gulf Of Tonkien moment which he will use a pretext to intervene in Syria on behalf of the Muslim Brotherhood.
And who can prove the Syrian rebels haven’t killed those people to get us to do just that? Remember the sixteen year old girl who told the world that Saddam’s army was tossing babies out of incubators in Kuwait so that we would get involved.
These people know the USA is gullible and can sucker us into yet another war in the Middle East when our military is in tatters and its equipment can’t be replaced because of Obama’s sequester.
According to Le Figaro, 300 US and Jordanian special forces are already in Syria. I hope they all are shot dead.
Don’t do it... DO NOT DO IT!
I’ve already reposted it about three times. Maybe I should start bolding the especially good part at the end. Repost if you want, where ever you want. It really fits pieces together, doesn’t it. The freaking GD Moslem Bro influence in our goverment is out and out treason. It’s an “Arab Spring” revolution by stealth, and the ones supposed to be on “our” side are NOT!
I have to do a gazillion things today and have no time for FR.... I think SPaulding’s comment should be a vanity. I’ll freepmail him and ask him. It’s the best explanation for why the GD Rs are so silent. Also Daniel Greenfield’s recent article fits in, w/out the Moslem part.
Gotta run...
