DUBAI (Reuters) - Gulf Arab states renewed their demands on Tuesday for the United Nations Security Council to take deterrent measures against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government over a chemical weapons attack that killed hundreds of people.
The statement was the first from the Sunni Muslim-led Gulf Cooperation Council, a main backer of rebels fighting to overthrow Assad, a member of the Alawite sect of Shi'ite Islam, since Russia unveiled a proposal to avoid military strikes by dismantling Syria's chemical weapons.
"The GCC condemns the ugly crime committed by the Syrian regime by using internationally banned chemical weapons, which resulted in the killing of hundreds of civilians," said Bahrain's Foreign Minister Sheikh Khaled bin Ahmed al-Khalifa.
He was speaking at the start of a meeting of foreign ministers from the six countries, which also include Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Oman.

He who pays the piper calls the tune.
Screw the camel bumpers.
Well he better learn to dance while he’s at it.
Another Arab chorus of “Onward Christian Soldiers.”
Ah...now we here from those Arab states that John Kerry said would foot the bill.
It seems they still want their pipeline...
Where’s that pipeline come from?
Guess Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Oman will have to find some other dupes to fight their wars for them...
That bunch can fight their own damn wars...
I'm guessing they're not done with Obama yet. He's a veritable muzzie dupe mine.

Lots of links and pretty decent information about Qatar’s proxy war in Syria over the natgas pipeline.
Okay, news is reporting that this is probably a delay tactic by Assad and the Russians. The fallout is starting to happen while Obama is trying to save his skin with his leftie base. A fine mess for sure now. LOL
Kerry screwed the Saudi pooch while Putin was watching.
This could set up another 9/11.
Qatar
ping
Then let them act and get off their asses.
If the gulf state wants something done, maybe their lazy Arab sons should go do it. Nothing’s stopping them.
Saudia and other arabs are like those women seeing a nightmare of a situation, one that has nothing to do with the guy, and demanding the guy they are with has to “do something”.
Along with the control of gas/oil is a fight over method of currency.
The Larry Summers Nomination Could Be In Trouble Thanks To Syria
WELL, THEY have young men and THEY have money - let THEM take care of it with THEIR funds and blood!!!!
Glenn Beck drew out - and discussed - the pipeline on his chalkboard, last night.
