With all due respect... you see pipelines everywhere.
But if that is the case... looks like the EU better strap on the body armor.

Canadian civilian police (CIVPOL) in Afghanistan train, mentor and advise the Afghan National Police (ANP), primarily at the middle and senior management levels, to increase their capability to provide an adequate level of security and stability within the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.
The Canadian CIVPOL contingent in Afghanistan, guided by a command team at the Embassy of Canada in Kabul, provides its expertise to the ANP in the following niche areas:
No issues with IEDs and RPGs in A-Stan? Surprising.
Really?

Re: "The U.S. Should Act"
Hmm... normally neo-cons justify everything in terms of "protecting interests", which the US doesn't have enough of in Syria to matter to anyone, so...
... hmm...
If neo-cons are getting a bout of conscience, there's always the option of doing clandestine t*t-for-tat.
Speciafically, if the Assadians really are nerve-gassing their own people, then maybe someone could send in covert-ops to sneak in and quietly hook up bottles of nerve-gas to the AC untits of Assadian homes.

Syria: Everything you wanted to know or say about it
WASHINGTON — Secretary of State John Kerry said Monday that the use of chemical weapons in attacks on civilians in Syria last week was undeniable and that the Obama administration would hold the Syrian government accountable for what he called a “moral obscenity” that had shocked the world’s conscience.
In some of the most strident language used yet by the administration, Mr. Kerry accused the Syrian government of cynically seeking to cover up the use of the weapons, and he rejected its denial of responsibility for what he called a “cowardly crime.”
Mr. Kerry’s remarks, in a prepared statement he read at the State Department, reinforced the administration’s toughening stance on the Syria conflict, which is now well into its third year, and he suggested that the White House was moving closer to a military response in consultation with America’s allies.
“The indiscriminate slaughter of civilians, the killing of women and children and innocent bystanders by chemical weapons is a moral obscenity,” Mr. Kerry said.

Re: Kerry Says Chemical Arms Attack in Syria Is ‘Undeniable’
why would the Syrian government use chemical weapons on their own people, just before an U.N inspection, then allow the U.N to come into the country and inspect afterwards?

Each side will always blame the other side. Both sides are going to cover their tracks (so to speak) so I don't think they will be able to clearly identify who did the gassing.
But I was wondering if its possible to get agreement where the UN could go in and remove all sarin barrels of gas and place it where the fighting parties can't get at it.
Then the fighting parties can still go at it but without access to the sarin gas.

The gas dissipates quickly and Assad does not want the US to attack him, so he is just playing the silly bugger game.

Seems to me if you want to gain public support for your cause, you could do a deed so nasty and then claim it was your opponent. Perhaps they should ask the NSA to see if they have found anything on Facebook to back this hypothesis up.

Re: Kerry Says Chemical Arms Attack in Syria Is ‘Undeniable’
... but doing it before U.N inspections and then allowing U.N inspections is kind of risky if you're the guilty party.

Whatevs. I'll wait for the UN report. The US sh*t the bed on the WMD thing last time.

We the west and especially the United States needs to mind its own business.
All sides in this thing lack ethics and humanity toward each other its about the
tribal aspects of life in that region. Its not our problem stay to hell out of it and
let them fight their civil war no matter how uncivil it becomes. No one stepped
into the American Civil War did they? Well not directly at least
