As the war drums for Syria get louder, let this thread serve as a repository for news, background, Tweets, photos, video, on-the-ground reports, etc., as was done recently with Egypt.

Qaeda suspects kill ‘gay’ man in Yemen

(snip)

“Armed Al-Qaeda suspects on a motorbike opened fire on 29-year-old Salem Ahmed Hasan in a market in Huta,” capital of the southern province of Lahj, the official said, adding the man died immediately.

He said the man was targeted because the attackers thought he was a homosexual.

Another four men have been killed in similar attacks on supposedly gay men in Huta this year.

Thursday morning Amen to that.

These wonderful young men, being sent into this mess by the arrogance of Obama.

Anyone who has time should read this story of King Ahab who wouldn't listen to his one wise advisor (who told him NOT to wage this war), and instead listened to all 400 of his "yes men" who always told him whatever he wanted to hear. It did not go well for him. But how many of his loyal soldiers and the soldiers of King Jehoshaphat also suffered because of his arrogance?

Good morning All!

Lots to catch up on this am. Watching Parliment with my coffee and reading intelligence report from Britain. Sounds like they did a few google searches and read a few newspapers to arrive at their conclusions...lol. Gads..we have better intelligence here on FR.

Germany hitting the brakes now too. So Obama is quickly becoming persona non grata with our allies it would appear.

I hadn’t seen your post when I was typing my response to mine. G-d, sometimes I think the load shifts in my head and screws with my balance.
Words I have written a million times come out wrong...and THAT is what I get for making fun of someone for their stupidity. Maybe HE can’t help it.
Bad, bad, bad. LOL Need food.

“PM Cameron says categorically that the Syrian opposition ‘do not have chemical weapons’”

Why? Did they use them all taking this shot to bring the world to war? They sure murdered a lot of people with what they DID have.
Never fear. They can always make more.
