Not at all Gerry, but I'm getting vibes you have a hatred for the man. What is wrong with something like "I strongly and adamantly disagree Colpy"?
That's what he did do, in 'Gerlingo', everybody understood it, even myself. Even for Colpy that was a new low for him personally on the morality scale and a new high on the hippocracy scale all in one sentence, ....or was it intentional to further some other point he usually harps on. Israel's right to any and all action such as killing people (civilians) in other lands as the only way to properly defend itself. I have no issue with a closed border, killing everybody on the other side as being part of the plan is where I object to the whole plan if need-by.
For Jews to declare Israel Jewish only (in that Muslims and Christians can be denied entry) should they not have to bring all Jews into there that currently live in other nations? If not have they just declared themselves master of the world? So far that has never worked out well for the ones that did it in the past. A time of glory and then erased from the pages of history forever. Perhaps China's rise to power will be Silk Road II with Marcus and Polo Heavy Hauling, you holler, we hauler.
By those same standards Syria has the right to kill all rebels that are already inside Syria, like the 'defectors from the Syrian military', lets have a close look at their history and see if they were working both sides of the street and their 'defection to a failing force' was saving their own asses from treason charges and execution because the coup was a classic fail, this time around. No doubt the 'heroes' left their wives and kids back to face any wrath the neighbors might have.
I'm pretty sure Russia has some border patrol gadgets that could track night-crawlers and collect DNA at border crossings (for use later) that could reveal the true who's doing what to whom.
Under International Law Bahrain was able to get assistance from Saudi in the form of tanks to help control the protests, under a defense pact couldn't Syria ask Iran for some 'tanks' to help with their civilian protests where the protesters bring sniper rifles instead of banners and placards. I'm sure any Indiana Jones fan would appreciate the similarity between a sword and a hand-gun and a long-gun compared to a tank round which would take out the whole floor the sniper was holed up on. A flour mill was tanked-out in cast lead because it was said to be a sniper platform, I'm almost sure that is what Syrian will come up with when they do their investigation demanded by a UN investigation conducted by a Muslim that would be equal to Judge Goldstone's status.
When they close Jerusalem to Jews on passover is that a sign 'their wheels have left the road'? (as has Colpy's)
Isn't science wonderful, look at the damage and tell me a sub-compact car filled with fertilizer could do this, OMFG The aircraft heard could have been the Israeli drone that had been hacked and the vid of the attack was captured by those accused of planning the attack (including some Syrian Generals) If you are looking for egg-sucking dogs that is where you should be looking Colpy.
“When we asked a number of military experts what kind of explosives would be capable of generating such damage, they mentioned a new type of weapon The combination of nuclear and nonotechnology science can trigger an explosion the exact strength of which can be regulated and controlled. The weapon is set up to destroy everything within a given perimeter, down to the nearest centimeter. The weapon is shaped like a small missile, a few tens of centimeters long. It must be fired from a drone. Actually, several witnesses assured they had heard an aircraft flying over the scene of the crime.”
