U.N. experts investigating a poison gas attack in Syria left the country on Saturday, paving the way for the United States to lead military strikes to punish President Bashar al-Assad.
U.S. President Barack Obama said the United States, which has five cruise-missile equipped destroyers in the region, was planning "limited, narrow" military action to punish Assad for an attack that Washington said killed 1,429 people.
"We cannot accept a world where women and children and innocent civilians are gassed on a terrible scale," Obama said on Friday after Washington unveiled an intelligence assessment concluding Assad's forces were to blame for the attack.

Qassim Saadeddine, a former Syrian army colonel and spokesman for the rebels' Supreme Military Council, said rebel groups had been sent a military plan of action.

Some of the most successful rebel groups are fiercely anti-Western Sunni Islamists allied to al Qaeda, and the West is wary of arming the opposition for fear of weapons reaching them.

We knew that at the time Iraq send trucks after trucks across their border to Syria. He was ditching the weapons.
the ONLY way to “punish” Assad personally is to make it personal- kill his child as (supposedy)he killed others
is barry ready to do that
nah I guess he’ll use our million dollar missiles to break up a palace or something-
oooh, barry bringing a knife to a gun fight
let the arab mocking commence in 4-3-2-1
I still have no idea WTH that is. Like the invented White Hispanic.
No, in other words “what difference does it make?” Obama has his mind made up regardless. It could have been Chlorox and sudsy ammonia for all he cares.
in time for the evening news to catch the fireworks show
ooh, look what a big brave president we have
so resolute
why by next week no tyrant will DARE to use CW again
they can just go back to rape squads, firing squads, IEDs, shredding, stoning, acid tubs, starvation, freezing peasants to death, and gulags for the whole family
Syria has top line Air Defense from Russia.... Anything other than UCAV’s and or Other stand off weapons like cruise missiles and yer gonna have some new POW’s for Syria to parade around ....unless of course Al Queada snags em first, beheads them and say Assad did it ...... Just like they did this chemical attack.
Assad is a dictator. He ain’t stupid enough to use chemicals . An act that would bring such as we see now down on him. But if the brotherhood can’t win they they would use it on the sheeple to get such force to bear on Assad from outside nations.
What this is about is letting the Islamic Brotherhood validate Obamas aid in the form of the officers and enlisted American military .....that same Islamic Brotherhood foundation trying to put Americans in their graves everywhere else around the globe.
I know I’m preaching to the choir here but Obama is aiding the enemy of this nation. Congress is just as guilty if they let him get away with this.
Praying for our troops safety.... Stay safe !
Supposedly Jarrett is mixed race.
Her mother had three white and one black grandparents, and her father was black.
Jarrett was born in Shiraz, Iran where she lived until she was five.
Her parents were both wealthy American citizens.
Her grandfather and mother had close ties to extreme leftist radicals.
I agree with your thoughts here.
Thanks Squantos.
WE need to WAKE HIM UP!!!!!
HE NEEDS FLOODED THIS WEEKEND WITH PROTESTS!!!!

I told this to the guys at work and they said, “Syria already has WMDs. They’ve had them for a long time.”
My reply?
“Then Saddam gave them more.”
On a bender, I'm sure.
It has always been my understanding that in order to lead, there must be someone follow ..............helloooooooooooo, anybody back there???
the left still parrots the line that Bush lied ansd set up attack on Iraq because it was “personal”
Saddam after all, tried to assassinate his father (and rest of Bush family including Laura Bush) when they traveled to Kuwait to receive an award from Kingdom of Kuwait
Bush 41 was a FORMER US PRESIDENT-ahem-speaking of Saddam willing to be a direct threat to the US
but hey, to DU- with obama and Syria- why man, its all compassion, man we gotta bomb Syria for the children
who have undoubtedly been staked out as human shields at every likely Syrian target, thanks to barry’s amateur strategist leakers
With Six Star General "Big Pussy" Obama and John "Captain Fury" Kerry in charge this can only end up as another monumental FUBAR.
I know I’m preaching to the choir here but Obama is aiding the enemy of this nation. Congress is just as guilty if they let him get away with this.
My only quibble would be that Zero is not just aiding, he IS an enemy combatant himself.
Oct. 2,2002:
Illinois state Sen. Barack Obama gives speech opposing war in Iraq. He said he did not oppose “all wars,” but he opposed “dumb wars,” and wanted to finish the job against al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden rather than start a new war in Iraq. He predicted that “even a successful war against Iraq will require a U.S. occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences.”

Republicans don't have time for this nonsense.
They are busy out in the toolies trying to sell Obama's Immigration Amnesty Plan at Town Hall Meetings.
