****Syria is EXACTLY THE SAME AS IRAQ in regard to the WMDs

****you've been duped

***nobody has accused Syria of WMD - nobody - so i don't know what you're talking about

** What would most often follows 'chemical' these days? That would be 'weapons'...Now what is your definition of 'mass destruction'? Wouldn't thousand of dead and injured bodies qualify? You've already admitted you believe that chemical weapons were used and that Assad is responsible.. So reconcile that please...
*
*i was referring to WMD as nuclear - yes chemical weapons kills masses of people and they are both horrific
*
*reconcile what? i believe, yes, that Assad used them and i believe there should be consequences - it is correct for action to be taken as he is killing his own people to stay in power as a ruthless dictator.
*
*i believed the exact same thing with Hussein when he used chemical weapons on his own people the Kurds - no difference.
*
*my objection to what the U.S. was saying at the time was that is was smoke and mirrors to rationalize a war that had a very different motive.
*
*the U.S. continued to actively support Hussein when he used chemical weapons - the difference when they purported WMD, meaning nuclear weapons was they were concerned with boundaries and control of middle east resources and influence.
*
*it was a ruse for and end - to me the real issue was a ruthless dictator that never should have been supported in the first place.

**
** Saddam Hussein's own comrade stated that Iraq shipped WMD to Syria when it was known that the coalition was coming... You think he said that just to get a chuckle out of claiming that Hussein pulled a fast one on his opponents?
**
**
**
**
***Syrian citizen's have been killed by chemical weapons - that is a fact.
***
***so either the chemical weapons were used by Assad, who is a ruthless dictator, or the rebels who are trying to overthrow him from within.
***
***i believe it was Assad and not the rebels
**

* Highly placed sources are contending that Obama will only go far enough to try and back up all his "red line" blather...Enough so he won't thought of as the wuss Clinton said he'd be called if he didn't take action... Then there's the 'Wag The Dog' charge as well....
It's a face-saving action more than anything else...The possible consequences resulting from action on those terms is worth it to you?
