    so we're all expected to beleive Assad has used chemical weapons even though he's beem winning the ground war over there. then ya have 'merica and it's spying partners jumping up and down over the use of a chemical agent that mist likely came from western backed rebels that imclude the same al queda the west has been chasing, killing, drone striking for years! what gives western armies the right to use depleted uranium bombs and white phosporous etc etc etc when it suits them but now some orchestrated small and hardly long term health risk gas goes off killing only a few hundred this is reason enough to go after a popular and democratically elected leader??

    we are watching the race to the end happening right in front of our eyes and we meither care enough to even pretend to give a **** online or to start marches as there will be worldwide over this new faux war/coup!!

    it does matter a damn whether they're bombs or rounds! i'm more shocked,outraged and concerned with the after effects that linger for generations with ordinary people not even able to start a family or live a long and healthy life!!

    Syria is just a sideshow, it is Iran that is the strategic target.

    Did they ever figure out which country used agent orange, the UN should tackle them first as it's still causing horrific human mutations to this day.

    We must move forward, not backward; upward, not forward; and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!

    So why didn't you start this campaign in 1991 when depleted uranium rounds were being used the most?
