As expected.
Thanks chessplayer.
Ping.
Just where did Syria get these chemical weapons? Salaam? Helllo?
Oops...I meant Sadaam..
IF the Syrians use them—and I think they will—Obama will back peddle. the Syrians will say the rebels did it to get international support (like Hitler saying Poland attacked Germany) Obama will want an investigation—and go to the UN. The world will watch as thousands, maybe tens of thousands, die. In the end assad will still have to go but his Party will survive and it will have a lock on power. After so many deaths no one will dare revolt. And America will do nothing.
There is no way Obama should go into Syria without Congressional approval whether or not Assad uses chemical weapons on the rebels. For Obama to announce he would do so in the first place was absurd, and the GOP should have been all over that aspect of this.
