As the war drums for Syria get louder, let this thread serve as a repository for news, background, Tweets, photos, video, on-the-ground reports, etc., as was done recently with Egypt.
time time time ... and no time present. Somebody better make sense up there in D.C.!!!
Noticed that the press is finally picking up that some sources say that some WMD could be in hands of ‘rebels’. They pushed pretty hard on some points we have been making here. WH shot down ‘anonymous sources’.
I have been on a one woman twitter campaign for days telling them to look at what Panetta said on 9/28/12...lol. He is certainly not anonymous. So today I tried again and tweeted this to several WH presstitutes:
Panetta said 9/28/12 that they lost track of Syrian WMD and that ‘rebels’ could have some http://t.co/8fbXFfm5pj #notanonymous
LOL...feel free to copy and paste and tweet out too!
I’m starting to believe that John McCain is perfectly and demonically possessed.
10 seconds of midnight.
Thank you fine lady! Word must be spread and your campaign is spreading the truth. Bless You!
McCain..” they are peaceful folk, with no US weapons”...
Like he said about the MBS in Rabba Egypt sit-in...
He’s saying this because he’s spreading the Obama line...they have to make it seem these are innocent unwilling fighters they are supporting.....when in fact he does know otherwise.
He is the flip side of the one same coin as the dear leader. Somebody is writing his script. Stupid AZ voters. AND gullible others.
Correct Laz ... the majority in D.C. are possessed. Code Walking and Talking.
Amen caww .... Amen!
Thank you for your kind words! Bless you too! I just love this country so much and hate what is happening.
Good job! You might want to tweet a few at #Syria @RT_com @IFAXnews. Just a thought. :)

...”will brief UN leader Ban Ki-moon soon after they leave on Saturday”....
Then we can watch how the UN twists those findings to suite whoever has the biggest payoff for them for doing so....
Well. It’s show time. Game’s over. Nuclear war will follow. Good to have met you. My soul is ready to meet God.
Stand tall fine lady! Our time is now!
That’s a given. But something else is going on with this Syria gig and McCain.......his stance on Syria and support of Obama doesn’t make any sense. When Greta asked if he has spoken to the president he answered proudly and defiantly that he had and added that he also had a long conversation with Biden.

McCain’s “peaceful” brothers...
Egypt Copts still reeling over attacks but hopeful of future
AFP
Published on Aug 29, 2013
Over 20 churches have been burned or damaged by looters in the Egyptian town of Minya since the bloody crackdown by the Egyptian army against the Muslim Brotherhood. The Coptic community is still in shock over the loss of valuable properties but remains hopeful for better days ahead. Duration: 02:52
Even US reports saying the same:
AP sources: Intelligence on weapons no ‘slam dunk’
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3060133/posts
WASHINGTON (AP) — The intelligence linking Syrian President Bashar Assad or his inner circle to an alleged chemical weapons attack that killed at least 100 people is no “slam dunk,” with questions remaining about who actually controls some of Syria’s chemical weapons stores and doubts about whether Assad himself ordered the strike, U.S. intelligence officials say.
snip
However, multiple U.S. officials used the phrase “not a slam dunk” to describe the intelligence picture ....
A report by the Office of the Director for National Intelligence outlining that evidence against Syria is thick with caveats. It builds a case that Assad’s forces are most likely responsible while outlining gaps in the U.S. intelligence picture. Relevant congressional committees were to be briefed on that evidence by teleconference call on Thursday, U.S. officials and congressional aides said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Observations:
1) Obama’s strike coalition is falling apart
2) Deals are being made behind closed doors
3) Obama and WH Josh Earnest are both saying today/yesterday that even if Obama has to act alone, he will act as he sees fit IF it serves US national security interests (whose definition is already being dumbed down)
4) YET...Chuck Hagel said today?: “I have said it on a number of occasions-—If any action would be taken against Syria, it would be in international collaboration.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
back to post #433
CNN crawler is saying, “Report showing Assad’s govt used chem agents will be declassified before any action is taken, Obama adm says.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
May be premature to be so cynical, but the US will give the classified report to some legislators, the declassified report to the rest...and perhaps the public.
Is the report going to review Assad’s PAST chem sins? Will the report rely on the phone-call intercepts as reported by the “FORMER” Mossad agent? BTW: His info hasn’t been debunked, but the nature of the dialogue intercepted has been debunked (in no way pointing to a smoking gun of Assad’s guilt). IIRC, the nature of the call was something to the effect: “What the hell just happened.”
I remain deeply suspicious that the US has Assad’s smoking gun.
FINALLY, “FOX’ James Rosen has received info from ME sources about the likely targets in the event of a US strike-—which will include the Assad regime’s command and control and its artillery and rocket stores used to deliver chem weapons. Pentagon sources describe the mission as a ‘deter and degrade” strike.”
Good video...I see the Copts spirit has not changed...and in fact appears to be consistent with their many years dealing with the persecution they have endured......Good News!
