Re: Kerry Says Chemical Arms Attack in Syria Is ‘Undeniable’

"BTW there are 5 US states that to still use Poisonous Gas to kill prisoners on Death Row."

You're comparing it to the legal execution of people found guilty by a jury.

It should not be used in war or in execution.. period. That's it, That's all.

But taking action towards Syria (who may or may not have used the gas), I think US is going to start an escalation in the region that may spread to Israel and the USA in the form of terrorism or full on war like Iraq. (which the USA can't afford right now)

There has to be a better way to deal with this.

A cruise missile is to indiscriminate, and it will kill the human shields..

Still say a seal team to take out specific leaders.

Re: Kerry Says Chemical Arms Attack in Syria Is ‘Undeniable’

So, no problem with using poison gas on civilians? Just talk about how dumb the U.S. is? OK, go sit with the Canadian left. They have Kool-Aid and pot brownies.

Yeah, that's it. Are we not getting through to you? How many ways do we have to put it--most Canadians take great joy in the thought of hundreds of children being indiscriminately slaughtered in a gas attack.

Sheesh.

Oh and lefties. And Brits. And the Germans, natch.

Possibly not, but they've been too busy cursing the U.S. to say much about Assad.

Well, my estimation of Assad is probably along the same lines as Kerry's: "murderer" and "thug" leap to mind, and I'd throw in "despot" and "weakling" too.

If I thought for one minute that a shock an awe campaign followed by Assad's public execution would help matters, I'd be all over it.

I apologize for dissing the US. I took offence at something someone else said about Canada and it went from there.

No need. We'll probably do something ineffective or f*ck it up anyway. In international affairs, we tend to be very very strong, but just a WEEEEEE bit clumsy.

Re: British Parliament votes against British military involvement in Syria

Umm. . . I didn't actually ask why you were there. You seem to be criticising the fact that we weren't.

Yes, and the criticizing ends here. How about--thanks for showing up when you did. Even beforehand, your industrial might kept England going, and when you showed up you kicked ***.
