We should have destroyed Assad’s gas arsenal as soon as reports began to surface of atrocities. They are most probably long since relocated and hidden, and thus the Kenyan can do nothing about it short of regime change.

Problem is: zero and his crew instigated this whole thing to begin with.
Just like in Egypt.
Plus, the chemical attacks that first were reported were the al-qeada affiliated rebels releasing chlorine.
We need to stay out of this one.
Especially since zero’s intent is to install Muslim brudder hoods in power there.
That was his intent in Libya and Egypt.

Destroying WMD’s in gas form is very hard. A bomb or missile strike will only release the gas and kill more people.

Q: How do you get rid of the stuff?

A: Experts say nerve gas has to be disposed of properly in locations with high temperatures and controls to keep gas from escaping to minimize the risk of accidentally gassing other people.

Q: So how can the U.S. military destroy Syria’s nerve gas supplies?

A: “Several of the options that are being discussed for military intervention have downside risks,” said Amy Smithson, a chemical weapons expert at the Center for Nonproliferation Studies. “Bombing the (weapons storage) site risks releasing the chemicals over nearby population.” Making matters worse, Syrian President Bashar Assad has threatened to use the weapons if attacked, she said.
