Who to believe? It’s not as if my government has never lied before.

How does that jive with stories that Al-Jazeera reported on the attack a day before it happened?

I just don’t understand why we care of muzzies kill muzzies. Saves the SEALS some work. Let ‘em have at it.

Or the scorpion has stung the swimming frog he is riding. Russia is so confused.

Since this is see-b-s, we can be sure it was word for word what the regime wants reported. First salvo in a massive punishing media campaign. All words no flashbang.

I think a moose just bit Obama... I thought she was away on vacation again.
In Hawaii?
Or maybe it was France or Africa....

Unless some of Assad's military is out of control, using chemical or biological weapons would be the worst thing Assad could do and he knows it!
I would guess right now Assad would rather deactivate and destroy these weapons safely, and be rid of them.

If truly these weapons have been used, my question is where did these WMD’s come from? No one seems to want to ask that question for some reason. Wonder why?

Thanks Chad_the_Impaler.
And no surprise, the Russian agitprop machine is churning out a hoax that the news about the attack preceded the attack. It’s just another Neo-Soviet lie.

Supposedly they are from Saddam’s arsenal that he transferred into Syria before we invaded Iraq.

"The dog is fixing to get wagged." Things ought to be ramped up just enough in a few weeks to entirely obliterate the first anniversary of Benghazi from the headlines.
