I agree. One of the rebel groups used Saddam’s WMD’s and then blamed Assad.

Now Obama plans on striking Syria. It is sheer insanity.

This guy doesn’t have a clue about what he’s doing. He’s in way over his head. Maybe Putin needs to show him how a man conducts a war. Obama had better know what he’s getting in to. I don’t think he does and all of America will pay for this intellectual lightweight who should never have been elected but was by 95% of the low information voters who have less of a clue than HE does. Thanks, black America. You voted for a man because he’s half black. What has that gotten you because it sure has been painful for us.

The “pussy of the united states” won’t strike. He’ll draw another line in the sand.. maybe call it fuschia or something.

A phony president will bomb Syria over a phony chemical weapons attack. They must be desperate to change the news cycle. If berry bombs Syria it means he was in on the chemical attack propaganda.

What an idiotic move that would be. Let me guess - Senators McCain and Graham are big fans...

US Intel leans toward concluding poison gas was fired

DEBKAfile August 23, 2013, 9:04 PM (GMT+02:00)
Administration officials said Friday that US intelligence detected activity at known Syrian chemical weapons sites before Wednesday’s possible chemical weapons attack that killed at least 1,000 people, according to CBS News. It is now seen as possible preparation for the attack. US intelligence agencies now lean to the conclusion that Syria did use chemical weapons. DEBKAfile’s military sources add: The gas shells were fired by the Syrian army’s elite 155th Brigade. They came from stores near Damascus controlled by the Syrian Air Force intelligence service which answers directly to President Bashar Assad.

With the way all those fighters are moving around how will they target anything? You would have thought drones.

We will end up in a full scale war.. with RUSSIA.

The sad part is that I had a brief flash of hope that the Russians would liberate us.

Where are all the Peaceniks now?

Remember when Janeane Garofalo said, “It isn’t hip to protest Clinton’s wars”.

Putin is going to teach Obama a lesson. Unfortunately, Americans are going to get harmed because of this narcissist.

This would be an act of war as all force is still unsanctioned by the UN. Syria and her allies could legally respond against any US or NATO target.

Clinton got away with this against Serbia with UN sanctions, and for this, Russia engineered a punishment for NATO by whacking Georgia with impunity, backing down NATO and the West in the process.

Russia is much better prepared now than when they executed Georgia, and they have international law on their side this time.
