Stay out of Syria. A civil war is THEIR problem. If Assad used sarin, it probably came originally from us, and his opposition is become more and more “radicalized” Islamists, so, do we REALLY want to get more involved?
Also, depending on "israeli intelligence might not represent our best evidence to start ANOTHER war over??
Brief reminder: it was Israel that bombed Iraq’s “nuclear potential”, then bombed Syria’s “nuclear potential”, is there a sequence here???
We’re already sending them arms, money and people to train them. Are those trainers the famous “advisers” that we supplied to Viet Nam before committing regular troops?
The United States is not the only country that can “police” these rogue nations regardless of the Bush “New World Order”. Let someone else pay with lives and money. We are bankrupt.
Boy it’s a good thing they don’t have castor beans to make ricin and mail it to the opposition! Having worked with chemical weapons in the military years ago, and my son more recently, all the “freak out” over a little sarin, or even VX is highly overblown. Now going back to WW ONE, where mustard agent from THAT war is still occasionally found still active and viable, that stuff IS nasty! The range and impact of these gasses is highly “undependable” and often “backfires” on the user.
bTW, we use fuel/air bombs, cluster bombs, non-metallic land mines, and DU munitions, regularly, and ALL are far more dangerous to civilian populations than sarin.
But the basic is, we need to stay out of Syria and not let Israel get us involved. BTW, talking of Syria in that situation, think “Golan Heights”, and Israel bombing Syria’s “nuclear plant”, illegally.

Syria is another Rwanda. Not one country in the world will get involved because there’s no oil to capitalize on.
