Reuters Wire: UK government motion to Parliament says UN Security Council should examine Syrian chemical attack report before any military action. The motion, to be debated Thursday, says every effort should be made to secure UN backing for military action in Syria.

“Senator John McCain, R-Ariz., expresses his view on the Obama administration...”

as if either one of them had a lick of sense.

Thank you!!!

I have been SO confused by all the various sects and branches of Islam, and which country supports who, etc.

I know it’s all just a big power game among all the regimes and terrorist organizations, and we don’t belong in any of it.

I wish they’d just bring our men home, continue supporting Israel, open up drilling here, and leave it at that. We could use the money saved to increase border security.

THAT would be defending our country and the constitution from Enemies Foreign and Domestic!

We need mel to interrupt what they were saying, if possible, to these men and they to the thugs....on the video...clearly they were assassinated but what was the dialogue exchanged would be interesting to know.

I am fast learning what it is to hate ....I think God does as well what this video and others have depicted in the brutality and torture of the MBS and terrorists they support....

Simple. Put out the word that we have un-deniable evidence that Syrian rebels accidently released sarin into the air, inadvertently killing hundreds of their own. Surely NSA can intercept a couple of calls and emails to prove it.

This is about the control of natural resources, oil and gas, and currency exchange.

Russia and China have been building their gold reserves. How much gold is in Fort Knox?

I would like to see the evidence that Assad is responsible for this chemical attack.

I am no fan of Assad but it makes little sense for Assad to use chemical weapons when he is winning the war. The rebels have every reason to use chemical weapons and blame Assad to get the US into the war and weaken Assad. I have seen many articles for months now showing the rebels with chemical weapons: testing them, etc. So if anyone has proof, please let me know. So far the only thing I have heard is a “communications intercept.” But is that really proof? If the rebels are trying to get us to bail them out, isn’t it possible for them to fake this as well?

Obama gives the impression of a small boy clomping around in his father’s boots.

It’s all pretense; he can scarcely walk without stumbling.

January 2017 is a long time away...

Israel to U.S.: Don’t Surprise Us with Syria

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/171327

(excerpt)

Meanwhile, speaking to an Arabic-language radio station operated by the United States, Syria’s Deputy Information Minister Halaf Al-Maftah said Monday that Israel would face not only Syria in the event that the US, Britain and France attempted to unseat Bashar al-Assad. A coalition consisting of Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, and Syria would respond to any attack against Assad with a response against Israel, he threatened. In addition, terrorist groups in Syria and Lebanon would attack Israel with full force.

Although I saw the video a couple of days ago, and basically, the Sunni MB, as they stated to their three hostages and talked to a fourth who said he was a Sunni. The MB guy that you show told him: if you are a Sunni, we’ll carry you in our heads.

That was the sign for things to come for the poor Christians.

They didn’t admit that they’re not Moslem in the beginning. They were asked if they prayed, they sai yes. They got quizzed about the length of different prayers “how many Rakaas**each” They obviously flunked and the bastard was laughing at them with others.

They admitted that they are Christians and asked for mercy. There, I admit, I was in a bad shape and didn’t want to post it.

No mercy and you saw what happened plus torching their trucks screaming the usual allahuakbar.

I’m sorry I had to translate this crap.

**rhymes with Rabaa. Something to do with kneeling.

<..."the United States discussed a British drafted resolution that could allow military action in Syria"...

Pure hypocrisy to accuse Syria of hiding behind Russia and then ObOzo turns right around and hides behind the British resolution!!!!

Really angers me the press just lets these facts slide....this is playing out just like Egypt did...but then they are attempting to gain ground in Syria they lost in Egypt.....when you look at the entire region...it’s easy to see the agenda and motive has nothing to do with ASSAD...it has plenty to do with the Globalist agenda.

19:01 GMT: Russia has a right to veto in accordance with the UN Charter, but it is premature to comment on voting on the UK’s draft resolution on Syria, said Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov.

He explained that the resolution is currently being distributed by the “sponsors” of the document among several UN member states, calling it a “common working process.”

Such distribution is unofficial, thus it does not trigger a 24-hour rule for a vote after the formal introduction of a resolution to the UN Security Council, Gatilov said.

Geez, I was wanting to log onto the Ny Slimes web site. (Massive sarcasm!)

The Syrians have figured out that the NY Slimes is a key Obozoliar supporter and enabler of his evil acts.

Maybe they can take out ABCNNBCBS, the Compost, Atlantic Urinal, LA Slimes and a few other of Herr Obozo Liar’s PR sites.

Yes, they are trying to get out ahead of it via ‘leaks’, but it is backfiring ... again.

Youtube with Biden warning GW not to start military action against Iran without approval from Congress. If GW did, Biden promised to start impeachment proceedings.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dRFJ6CF2Mw&feature=player_embedded

One might ask Joe, “Why not now Joe if your Obozo Liar bombs Syria without Congress’s approval?”
