The Saudi's and the Turks could strike at Syria (as they are equipped to) but they won't. They arms rebels in a civil war in Syria but wash their hands off the civilian deaths (apologies to Pontius Pilate). They all want the US to. Why? I bet the day after the US strike, you will see demonstrations in every capital in the Middle East protesting "American imperialism".
Looks like this will become a joint US-Russian operation,despite what they are saying.Use of chemical weapons is just cover for the operation.Russia has 3 warships from the Black Sea fleet, Russia sold the weapons, pretty sure they can jam lock and load of missiles, US can wipe them out. Do not think US has the capability of jamming the weapons,even though they say they know where they are.They need the Russians here.I think, the big powers allowed Syria to fall apart and now the Syrian state is unstable.If Assad falls, the chemical weapons go to who?....Al Qaeda and Al Nissra....then we have a real mess.Obama, needs Congressional approval, there will be a wider war,he knows it.
If those Arabs are calling Obama weak then its because of racist reporters like cnn who look down on Obama gave this arabs the power to say that,
No more war!for that idiot Nicaragua woman ana navarro to say all Obama knows is campaiging i wish to see her face to face to remind her she is only american on paper & before she insults the President she she should learn how to speak proper english
How about CNN publish online copies of all the "evidence" for the whole world to see? –
