AIRSTRIKES ON SYRIA IMMINENT

[nikki1]

While Assad of Syria is no angel and is a cause of national and international terrorism, the opposition that is trying to overthrow him are religious fanatics backed by Al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood and are just as capable, and more, of using gas attacks on innocent people.

 

I have a problem with any attack on the  Syria regime  because .....

 

To date, no national or international agency or media source has been able to show who fired the weapons, and while the UN inspections that have taken place thus far from interviews of victims, reports published that I have read say there is no solid evidence who the culprit is, but shows strong evidence from testimony from victims that the rebels are the culprits.

And that's the problem with striking Syria - is the actual criminal the one being punished?

Well, Assad is a criminal based on his past sponsoring of terror group activities in the ME and against Israel especially,  and does deserve to be punished.  But I think it is wrong to blame the Assad Regime without knowing if it was he or the alQaeda affiliated rebels who are the culprits in this situation.  I think western powers are jumping the gun on blaming Assad, and if they do attack the Assad Regime based upon guilt without proof, there will be severe consequences for the entire world to pay.

Quote, "Colin Powell: U.S. was set for war with Iraq before his U.N. speech

The George W. Bush Administration was set on going to war with Iraq even before Colin Powell made his infamous 2003 weapons of mass destruction pitch to the United Nations, writes the former secretary of state in his new book, "It Worked For Me: In Life and Leadership."

 

Powell points a finger at Dick Cheney and Scooter Libby, the former vice president's chief of staff, as the ones responsible for providing the inaccurate information about Iraq's possession of weapons of mass destruction, the Huffington Post reports.

And who is going to foot the bill on these attacks? Let me guess, my taxes are going to be doubled next April.
