Yes, I do.
Russia likes selling arms to Syria but they're not going to get in a shooting war with the US for Assad.
I'm not advocating us putting a single troop in Syria.
If we don't do anything, whomever is in charge of Syria has the green light to chemical weapons to take over Lebanon again or to strike Israel or for Iran to use any way they so choose.
The reality is if we do nothing the chemical weapons ban is de facto dead.
This thread is disgusting on a number of levels and is the latest in a series of threads that show the Politics Board has outlived its usefulness.
Somebody should be raining holy hell on anyone cowardly enough to use poison gas on children.
RJ this morning.
Jhmd last Friday.
Does the fact that RJ and jh agree with each other mean the apocalypse is upon us?
And how do we factor in that they both agree with that fuckface 89deaconmike?
Russia is not going to anything unless we attack them.
Attack who? Russia? Or attack Seria?
If it's OK to use them NK, Iran and Syria would certainly think about selling them.
Another possible target could be Syria's oil refineries. This is how they pay for their arms.
Yeah, our gas prices would go out of sight and tank the economy - that would sure show those Syrians who's boss.
We are not going to send troops. To think is a conspiracy to get us to do that is conspiracy theory gone mad.
OK, then how is bombing their refineries going to cripple Syria's ability to pay for their arms?That's as crazy as 07's rep statement that this is just a cover to start a military engagement there.
Syria make a whole $15M/day from it's oil refineries. That's not even a pimple on the world oil supply. Garbage speculators have far more impact than Syria.
Obama not going forward without Congress.
