Not confused about anything.

Kerry is an idiot and has been showing his ass nonstop in his new job, for which he is as unqualified as his boss.

If Obama hadn't sent his moron VP to f up the status of forces agreement with Iraq, Iran wouldn't have been able to tranship material to Assad, and the US could have discreetly aided the non terrorist opposition when it might have meant something.

I wouldn't have much of a problem with a sudden strike designed to kill the entire Assad clan, but that's not what Obama wants to do.....this is an ineffectual media show to save what's left of his face. And a "look at that squirrel" deal to distract from the worsening economic numbers and the disaster of Obamacare.

Given the current state of play....and the grave questions about whether it was even Assad that popped the gas (why would he provoke the world when he's winning the war already?)....I say let our various enemies keep killing each other and don't interfere.

Nothing we do is going to improve the lot of the Syrians or contribute to US security or reputation in the region.

I've said from the get go that I am in favor of a limited strike on the chemical weapon arsenals and those in control/possession of them. I've not once stated a belief or position that any specific political party or Assad should be the designed target.

How do you like lamb and/or chicken with yogurt sauce? Swarmas are pretty good. The bakalava is fantastic. I can only assume that Syria eats the same staples as Jordan.

All I can remember about the food from that area of the world.

The people seemed nice, but I really missed bacon. Probably ate it for a month when I got home.

Unless you want to disperse the chemicals you have to burn them in a hot fire. You don't just smash them up.

So who do we kill? What if Assad has not used them? Do we hit the rebels? Both?


A government is the most dangerous threat to man�s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims.

You're frikken obtuse or can't understand the written word.

Try some evening remedial reading comprehension classes. They're over relatively early and you can get home in time to show us what you didn't learn.

For about the 6th time now, those in possession or control of the chemical weapon arsenals.

Our intel out of Syria is so bad, we don't have a clue who has what or where it is. you've got dueling PR campaigns being run by the "rebel" media and the Assad/FSB axis....but the only targets available and identifiable would be the Syrian military's assets. And it's no more than 50/50 they're the ones who used the Sarin.

Subjectively is the norm. It has to be. It always has been.


Bullschit. Subjectivity is the path to being a pussy.

We need to bomb Syria and lose men and planes so our POS POTUS does not end up looking like a POS POTUS?


The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by the blood of patriots and tyrants.

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.

=========

I don't know if that's true or not. Respecting you and your resources though, if it is true,then the strike should not occur.

I was more than specific, ad nauseum in fact, as to necessary identifiable targets before I'd agree to a strike.

How would the possession or control question ever get sorted out?

From the reading I have been doing sounds like Shreck is exactly correct about it takes an extremely hot fire under controled conditions to destroy chemical weapons....

This vile "human insecticide" is reported to be stored in many many different locations.... Mostly in or near population centers.... Lobbing in bombs where we think it might be could result in God only knows how many deaths down wind from the impact locations.....

Get me a list of names and addresses and we'll get right on that!! Even if the US had that list, I guarantee you the locations have been changed by now.
