This boy king president is going to get A LOT of people killed. There is no threat to the US by what happens in Syria. For Kerry to use drama and emotion suggesting we must do something because Al Qaeda and other terror groups may get access to those chemical weapons is deceptive and misleading. By the US taking unilateral action without the facts we could very well allow that to happen! We don’t know who the players are and whose side they are on. Frankly any way this goes we and our few allies in the ME are going to get screwed by this, but to justify a strike on a huge “what if” is not enough.
The only option we have is to sit it out. If Al Qaeda rises to power and does in fact gain access to these chemical weapons then fine let’s talk about turning Damascus to glass. Right now though, this is a civil war that poses no threat to the US.
500,000 killed in the Congo, no one lifts a finger. 60,000 officially dead but estimates go even higher to 100,000 in the Mexican drug war not a concern or response by the world body. Over 100,000 dead of that 1400 have been killed by poison gas in Syria so now people care?! The type of weapon used to kill the masses will now dictate a response?
