Ultimately I fail to see the difference between chemical weapons and the bullet of a snipers gun.

They both kill innocent people for political reasons.

Erm .... targeted death of one individual compared to the indiscriminate deaths of dozens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands?

Using your logic, one nuclear bomb is equivalent to a snipers bullet.

These Wahhabi fighters have always said that they will fight to the death, and they believe that they and any children who are injured or killed will be greatly rewarded in heaven. They are happy to use children as their propaganda tool.

So the whole thing is fake is it? I understand the propaganda machine that is the Wahhabi machine but there is little to suggest this is part of that.

You're missing my point. One death is one death too many. Even targeted efforts end up being indiscriminate.

Although the U.S is familiar with 'indiscriminate' and dodgy stockpiles. One word 'Fallujah'

Russia loves to feed conspiracy theories to the internet knowing some idiots will happily pick up any baton and run with it because it makes them look cleverer than they actually are.

bit of a shark jump for the Russians... and not like them. who's the audience for this, no in the west will take it seriously, no at home will hear, probably be skeptical too.

The only trouble is they've made so many huge porkies they are now the boy who cried wolf.

Putting aside the fact that chemical weapons usually provide for a slow lingering very painful death, the most important factor is chemical weapons are illegal. Every country bar four terrorist states has signed up to never produce or use them. Any that does should be severly punished for doing so. Quite who can punish the US using them in Iraq I'm not quite sure though.

He gets all his intel from NSC

I wonder why the French President is so certain Assad was behind this latest atrocity.

"We have proof that last week chemical weapons, at least chlorine, were used by the regime of Bashar al-Assad."

"Regimes that think they can do everything they want, including the worst things that violate international law, cannot be allowed to act."


Perhaps he has access to all the intelligence unlike peeps on a footy forum. :shrug:

Is this the new format for the World Cup?
Good luck to travelling fans
Well with Russia spouting that nonsense about Victoria Skripal being held in the UK against her will, it has to be odds on that some England fans will be detained in Russia as a reprisal.

Assad did it. Period. Killing your own people is the worst possible crime. I actually applaud our Prime Minister for taking the right decision even though she knows it won’t be popular and could lose her votes.

However you can’t just sit and do nothing which is what the idiotic commie Corbyn suggests . At least May has principles, Corbyn has none. He’s just a terrorist sympathiser and horrible human being

Get in the sea.

Yes you can just sit back because you don't win in those parts because there's to many factions and it's far too religious.The Middle East is always a ticking time bomb and people will always be killed...It's best left alone as it has fack all to do with us !!

What's the plan in those parts?
Westernised?
Peace? Lol
Oil?
To piss off russia ?
We will never learn:nono:

Is white phosphorous banned by international convention? Genuine question.
