The west wants an excuse to remove Assad. Why would he give them one ? It could be a conventional bombing of "our " chemicals.  A false flag.  Looks like an Assad /Russian victory is unacceptable. What a surprise.

Way back, Obama told him if he used gas there would be US led reprisals. He then used gas and Obama did nowt. He knows he can do what he wants.

It wasn't him last time. It was a terrorist false flag. WE need a reason to remove Assad. Make one up like Saddam's WMD.

They  want U.S /Israel puppet in charge not Russia's. Big danger of a massive war.

At the time of first gulf war there was talk that the reason they did not go any further was because of WMDs(bio+chem+poss unknown nuclear program),furthermore there was also talk of WMDs (chemical) being transferred to Syria ,in fact Syrian weaponized chemicals were decommissioned on a special ship not so long ago .So not diff to see there was some there imo and i think Saddam had threatened to use them as well if bush senior had entered baghdad

People talk about WMD but not sure the term has ever been defined ,did Saddam not threaten to use bio weapons ?
Not sure the babymilk factory story was all true and there was talk of vast underground military bunkers ect so not sure the truth on it all is crystal ,what is clear is that the evidence used by blair to parliament was not factual and was never correct but that does not mean WMD,s did not exist imvho .

Folks should be demanding to know where these Syrian  chemicals came from ,that would be a start ,thought they were all removed ?

Obama went to Congress for authority to take action, Congress said No as did our Parliament. In any case Assad didn't use nerve agents again, although there are accounts he used Chlorine.

Trumps administration announced a few days ago that removing the Assad regime wasn't a priority.  Assad almost immediately uses nerve gas.  Trump blames Obama when he is entirely responsible for the messages given to Assad. 

Trump is as pathetic a human being as you will come across.

You seem not to like the president of the united states.  He must have done something awful to you to deserve such vitriol and dislike.

What did he do to you??
Report saddo • April 5, 2017 1:41 PM BST
Obama should really have said "if you use gas I will ask for permission to do something about it". My point wasn't about Obama, it was about bad people in absolute power knowing they can more or less do as they like. Of course the snobby one has to make it about Trumpy, I'm surprised he couldn't manage to blame brexit also.

sorry broadsword ,but what is the point you are making ?  that vid seems even more duplicitous than the last

The Syrian war started as a domestic problem and Assad's regime arrested protestors ,it escalated and developed into an armed conflict ,i think his own army split and people took sides ,long running problems ,1200 named groups all wanting a bit of action  in a country run by a dictator who is in hawk to russia for billions .The region is messed up the gangsters are running oil ,the dictator is dictating playing the passive aggressive nice guy ,counting the coin.

You think the bbc made everything up or summit ?  like we might ever get the truth out of a warzone ? or anywhere for that matter ?

"truth is the first casualty of war"

they're saying they might go in now to Gub Assad as he's used da gas. they have their valid excuse. It's like a cowboy film were they only seek revenge after a heinous act by the villain. So that they are justified.
Report dave1357 • April 6, 2017 9:41 PM BST
Trump's people will as we speak be telling Pootin that they will drop Ukraine sanctions if he cooperates in removing Assad.  This is such a perfect scenario for both of them, that it makes it almost certain that the gas attack was indeed a false flag.

At least people are waking up to the fact that the western media are lying bstards, even the libtards are slowly realising this, so hopefully they will adjust their boring rhetoric which has embarrassed them greatly.

The BBC have campaigned for action for years now by saying Assad has been attacking his own people,now they are really confused that Trump,their hate figure has actually done something while Obama,their luvvie of choice,was too gutless.
Report dave1357 • April 7, 2017 2:43 PM BST
Congress blocked Obama from direct action against Assad in 2013.  At that time Trump was on record stating that Syria was nothing to do with the US and the US shouldn't get involved.
