Do you even remember what happened in Grozny? Who side we were on?
So it's your opinion that the U.S. is to blame for all this?

can you even imagine obama taking action?

imagine this... try not to laugh.

obama: " today i have authorized american troops to set feet in syria to stop the use of chemical weapons against citizens"

obama is not this type of leader. he is so weak that he will do anything to avoid conflict.

Is that how it went with Libya, and the escalation of Afghanistan?

Having said that I woud add that most people would want ANY American leader to do all they can to avoid war.

Until is is illegal to use, it will be used, and that will be whether you like it or not.

What exactly did obama do in libya, besides lead from behind? And why was it so important to stop ghadaffi from killing a few thousand people - when the assad syrian murder machine/mafia gang has slaughtered almost 100,000 people? Where is the leadership in a far worse situation in syria?

As for what "most people would want," they'd want to have a leader with credibility, whose word means something.

Did you expect him to ride into battle with the first wave? Give me a break.

Someone said he is too weak to take action and will do anything to avoid war, and I asked how that claim looks in the light of him going into Libya and escalating Afghanistan war?

Why do we care what weapons these fools use to kill each other? The more they kill the better it is for the rest of us. "May my enemies have enemies" is the appropriate adage.

If you're not asking questions, then you are nothing but a tool, a gov't mouthpiece.
How do you know how many have died in Syria, who's doing the headcounts? Those so called rebels, that are really terrorists we are supporting to force regime change in a sovereign country? Who is really doing all the killing? It doesn't make any sense that Assad would be killing his own supporters, now does it? The people of Syria are fighting for their country, against the foreigners, who have no nationality, nor uniforms, so don't have to abide by any international laws. The west mainstream news is all propoganda to support this invasion. Remember Iraq and the lies that got us into that war.

RT: The UK has reportedly confirmed the use of chemical weapons in Syria after an MI6 operation. But we know how the intelligence worked in Iraq - aren't we just witnessing the same again in Syria?
Lindsey German: Absolutely I think the same sort of story is being repeated and of course many people didn’t believe it ten years ago and many more now realize they were told lies. I think this latest piece of evidence is very dubious, even the US and British authorities are saying they’re not certain…they’re not certain at all what quantities have been used but of course they’re using the fact that supposedly chemical weapons have been used in this way to increase the prospect of intervention in Syria and this comes after a number of other things, including the EU foreign ministers meeting this week and deciding they’ll lift the embargo on oil that they’ve placed on Syria, in order to buy oil not from the government but from the opposition.
?West is using possibility of chemical weapons to encourage intervention in Syria? ? RT Op-Edge

Free Syrian Army = doublethink
this has nothing to do with freeing Syria and everything to do with taking over that country, and bringing us closer to invading Iran.

Ugh, get real - he had to be dragged by the US public and the EU/NATO allies to do anything in Libya. He is as bad - if not worse - than Carter. I cannot believe that the US public voted this ******* in twice.

They still don't know if they were deliberately used or just in a building which got shelled. That only six people got sick seems to imply the later as a deliberate use generally would get more people. I, for one, am happy we have a president who waits for all the facts before rushing to war.
