Nikki Haley Stares Down Russian Ambassador and Asks a Question That Makes UN Go Silent (WOW!))

U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley on Wednesday confronted Russia directly in an impassioned address to the United Nations following a reported chemical attack in Syria on Tuesday.

Haley gave a horrific and vivid account of the reported chemical attack, holding up photos of child victims for the U.N. Security Council to see.

“Men, women, the elderly, and children gasping for their very last breath,” she said. “And as first responders, doctors, and nurses rushed to help the victims, a second round of bombs rained down. They died in the same slow, horrendous manner as the civilians they were trying to save.”

She then stared down the Russian ambassador and said: “How many more children have to die before Russia cares?”

Here's the face the Russian ambassador saw staring daggers at him

Your pals in the ISIS militias are looking for volunteers to fight Assad. Get on a plane and suit up or STFU.

Who stands to gain by us blaming Asad and the Russians for a chemical attack?

Yeah right. A blog said that. Assad has used it Sarin multiple times(Syria also routinely uses chlorine gas) and Syria is not a member of the Chemical Weapons Convention.

The only people saying it isn’t Assad are the Russians.

Every country I have seen is saying it was Assad.

There are too many incidents for it to be False Flag. If you think Assad is too concerned about Human Rights to use Sarin, I have a Russian bride to sell you.

"Putinists"? Neither Nikki "Trump is everything a governor doesn't want in a president" Haley nor anyone else in the UN has a clue as to who fired those weapons. "The UK's foreign secretary, a rebel commander and a weapons expert all said evidence pointed to an attack by the Syrian government, Russia's ally." The very same thing occurred in Sarajevo in 1994. Although initial media reports attributed the shelling to Serbian forces, crater analysis done by a team of TURKISH artillery officers assigned to UNPROFOR concluded that ONLY the Muslim forces could have shelled that area of the marketplace; Serbian shells would have had to pass through buildings to shell the marketplace. Contrary to popular belief, the Muslim forces under Alija Izetbegović, the Bosnian Muslim leader, shelled the Markale marketplace in Sarajevo, killing 60-some people and wounding about 150. Izetbegović was appealing to the West for arms at the time, but the combined Indian, Swedish and French leadership of UNPROFOR chose to ignore the crater analysis and endorsed media reports.

“.. think of that picture we all saw of that 4-year-old boy with the blood on his forehead because he’d been bombed by the Russian and Syrian air forces.

There are children suffering in this catastrophic war, largely, I believe, because of Russian aggression. And we need to do our part.”

Who said it, Nikki or Hillary?

I'm having a problem believing any of the reports coming out of the middle east over the past couple of years.

I find it necessary to post this reminder:

This is bogus. Of course, absolutely no evidence has been provided and this makes zero sense. How does this benefit Assad when the US just said it will be a Syrian issue if he stays or goes. Trump is being dragged into war just like all other Presidents before him. His press conference way very disappointing. He hasn’t been able to develop any sort of relationship with the Russians and now he’s being pushed into a standard foreign policy. Hugely disappointed if he falls for this.

I don’t believe the stories that Assad used chemical weapons.

There is no history of evil behavior on his part.

It had the smell of being manufactured so that Odumbshit and HilLIARy could put the muzzie brotherhood in charge in Syria

The MB would have had their caliphate if Obama was successful in removing Assad- and Egypt did not depose the MB leader Odouchebag installed too.

Every country? Nonsense. Read this, then read the comments and then stop watching cnn.

Oh, this evil Kerry. I wish he had earned his Purple Hearts and never made it out of Viet Nam.

I am going to assume Trump knows who really gassed the civilians... I hope someone is in charge of this country, whatever this thing is that we live in.

This is not a Trump position. Trump is being pushed and tricked into going to war just like Bush and Obama before him. He has to resist this craziness. He hasn’t even spoken to Russia because the bosses won’t let him. If Trump were in control he would have spoken to Putin long ago. The fact that he hasn’t shows that elections may not have consequences after all.
