Am I alone when I say that I don't give a crap if Assad used chemical weapons?
America has been excessively worrying about the lives of Arabs for what, 50 years? Longer?
Does anybody really care anymore about what happens to those people in that area of the world?
Has America gained anything (other than death, misery, terrorism, and loss of trillions of dollars) by meddling with those people over there for decades?
False Flag seems highly likely to me. Assad has no reason to go chemical when he is winning. Only people with motive to release chem weapons now are ISIS and other jihad groups who are losing.
The neo-cons, as planned, will try to use this hoax to advance the anti-Assad, pro-Islamist, pro-Erdogan agenda.
Assad helped kill US soldiers in Iraq per his partnership with Jihadists, daddy Assad helped kill 250 Marines. Assad has aided ISIS and bought their oil.
A UN conference on humanitarian aid and peace in Syria was set to get underway and I guess it had to be undermined.
I believe it was an Isis weapons storage facility that was blown up, it was their gas weapons going off, shit happens.
Only dozens got killed. The explanation that he accidentally bombed chemicals on the ground seems more likely.
This was an attack on our President, with optics of dead children designed to make him look bad and weak. The deep state Mediarats would use this to take Rice off the news cyscle and hammer Trump for months with their fake concern for children.
I was telling my girlfriend this morning that it was most likely a false flag engineered by Erdogan to help advance his agenda of topping Assad.
Erdogan has a toehold in Syria, but he’d like to go balls deep into Syria. Can’t do that with the Russians in Syria and Assad in power.
Erdogan is hoping to provoke a pity party in the West, so that the West will do the dirty work of removing Assad for him.
Work accident?
Arguably we got oil when we needed it.
Not efficiently, and yes, we created, directly or indirectly, the worst threats over there—from Al-Qaeda to ISIS, Saudi Arabia’s wahabi export and Iran.
Oh, and trillions in arms sales. Not admirable or really defendable, but we had motivations that went beyond our Cold War proxy fights.
>> America has been excessively worrying about the lives of Arabs for what, 50 years? Longer? <<
Much longer. My favorite series of novels is the Tarzan series by Edgar Rice Burroughs, beginning in 1912.
The Tarzan novels always had 3 groups from which to draw their villians, Arabs, Russians and occasionally Germans, but always Arabs.
Israel condemns too; I guess Israel is misled too.
I guess, no weapons are funneled from Iran through Syria to Hamas and Hezbollah to kill Israeli civilians as well.
I guess Assad did not harbor Saddam’s brother for years, I guess the Bush administration did not consider expanding the war into Syria because of all the terrorists coming out of there.
Syria was to the Iraq war what Turkey is to the Syrian war.
Is that you McCain?
Actually, Syria’s long been known to possess chemical weapons and it’s also known to have accepted Iraq’s chemical weapons precursors and equipment when the Russians helped transport them to Syria in advance of the US invasion of Iraq [see Jack Shaw’s testimony]. The most likely explanation is the weapons are Syrian or Iraqi [and therefore Russian in origin] and they were used by the Syrian government which bought and paid for them in the first place, and the Russians would of course try to promote the idea that they are not responsible even though they certainly liked the money they took for selling the stuff.
Israeli cheerleader Jared Kushner is over in Iraq, too. Coincidence? LOL.
For many people, Assad’s genocide is just fine. It’s the unseemly side of humanity.

I agree, and understand.
I'm just throwing my personal opinion out there.
I'm so totally over worrying about the troubles of the Middle East.
