    truth bomb:

    Bombing Syria would make US pilots ‘Al-Qaeda's air force’ – Kucinich

    Twenty-one Republicans and one Democrat have signed onto a House letter to President Obama demanding that any military action must be signed off on by Congress.

    “Engaging our military in Syria when no direct threat to the United States exists and without prior congressional authorization would violate the separation of powers that is clearly delineated in the Cons ution,” says the letter, which was initiated by Republican Congressman Scott Rigell.

    “Before engaging in a military strike against Assad’s forces, the United States must understand that this action will likely draw us into a much wider and much longer-term conflict that could mean an even greater loss of life within Syria,” said Senator Chris Murphy, urging the Obama administration to “continue to exercise restraint, because absent an imminent threat to America’s national security, the U.S. should not take military action without Congressional authorization.”

    They should attach this meme to the House Letter, tbh

    Looks like Saudi offered Russia a lucrative deal with their oil price fixing cartel (OPEC) + a promise to buy 15 billion worth of Russian arms + a promise of security for their Olympic games in exchange for walking away from Syria.

    How To Intervene In A Foreign Country
    --------------------------------------------------

    1) Discover, contact and support anti-state elements in the target country.

    2) Fund and train them to start peaceful protests.
    3) Slowly turn them more violent.
    4) Once the government interferes forcefully, give it full media coverage.
    5) Start propaganda against the regime all over the world.
    6) Provide anti-state elements with weapons to start a countrywide revolt.
    7) If they fail, provide them light-weight chem. weapons to use on children and women.
    8) Make accusations the regime is using chemical weapons against its own people.
    9) Send UN inspectors there; but make sure they don’t complete their work.
    10) Contact like-minded countries and prepare for a military intervention.

    so doesn't this prove it was not ordered by Assad, but a mistake or inside job to incite West response?

    you know like when a US pilot dropped a 2 ton bomb in that Iraqi children's hospital?
    Yeah, there are reports out there that it was his younger brother, who commands one of his elite Republican Guard brigades.

    It's still murkier than a Louisiana swamp, if you ask me. And certainly not enough to run a limited Tomahawk strike, as seems to be the plan.

    Really looking forward to the release of the "hard proof" that's supposed to be the basis for this action.

    The easy way for Obama to get out of his tough-guy "red line" is to ask Congress to vote on it.

    Even the neocon, blood thirsty, kill-ALL-the-Muslims House Repugs and tea baggers would vote against bombing Syria just because it's Obama's idea.

    Anyway, the US health "care" system gasses to death a few every year.

    "Each year in the United States, anesthesia/anesthetics are reported as the underlying cause in approximately 34 deaths and contributing factors in another 281 deaths"

    OBAMA PROMISES SYRIA STRIKE WILL HAVE NO OBJECTIVE

    Attempting to quell criticism of his proposal for a limited military mission in Syria, President Obama floated a more modest strategy today, saying that any U.S. action in Syria would have “no objective whatsoever.”

    “Let me be clear,” he said in an interview on CNN. “Our goal will not be to effect régime change, or alter the balance of power in Syria, or bring the civil war there to an end. We will simply do something random there for one or two days and then leave.”


    “I want to reassure our allies and the people of Syria that what we are about to undertake, if we undertake it at all, will have no purpose or goal,” he said. “This is consistent with U.S. foreign policy of the past.”


    While Mr. Obama clearly hoped that his proposal of a brief and pointless intervention in Syria would reassure the international community, it immediately drew howls of protest from U.S. allies, who argued that two days was too open-ended a timeframe for such a mission.


    That criticism led White House spokesman Jay Carney to brief reporters later in the day, arguing that the President was willing to scale down the U.S. mission to “twenty-four hours, thirty-six tops.”


    “It may take twenty-four hours, but it could also take twelve,” Mr. Carney said.


    “Maybe we get in there, take a look around, and get out right away. But however long it takes, one thing will not change: this mission will have no point. The President is resolute about that.”

    U.S. Syria Conflict: Intelligence On Chemical Weapons Is No 'Slam Dunk,' Officials Say

    The intelligence linking Syrian President Bashar Assad or his inner circle to an alleged chemical weapons attack is no "slam dunk," with questions remaining about who actually controls some of Syria's chemical weapons stores and doubts about whether Assad himself ordered the strike, U.S. intelligence officials say.

    President Barack Obama declared unequivocally Wednesday that the Syrian government was responsible, while laying the groundwork for an expected U.S. military strike.


    "We have concluded that the Syrian government in fact carried these out," Obama said in an interview with "NewsHour" on PBS. "And if that's so, then there need to be international consequences."


    However, multiple U.S. officials used the phrase "not a slam dunk" to describe the intelligence picture – a reference to then-CIA Director George Tenet's insistence in 2002 that U.S. intelligence showing Iraq had weapons of mass destruction was a "slam dunk" – intelligence that turned out to be wrong.

    You didn't get anything 'right.' You just posted your typical Alex Jonesesque youtubes and memes.

    If it makes you feel better thinking that I am mad and upset over here then that is just antisocial behavior. I am not mad at you. If anything I have something closer to pity for you.

    You desperately want to fit me into this box of 'butthurt' or '<insert whatever> lover.' It's sad. You don't think for yourself either and instead spoonnfeed on this canned nonsense. That is sad too.

    While it is true that I used to get mad at minions such as yourself, I realize now that there is no point. I will just comment when you misrepresent the truth. So go ahead and regurgitate the same slightly altered canned response of the same retort such as the above. I don't care much at all.

    What do Americans think about War with Syria
    In this video Luke Rudkowski hits the streets of NYC to talk to random people about the current situation regarding Syria. This is an honest look into what random people think about the upcoming war. Everyone who was interviewed was included in this video and we did not edit out anyone who we talked to. As you can see the majority of people we spoke to were against the war, except for one person but a lot of people also seemed not to care about the situation.

    Truth bombs

    TYT: What's the REAL Reason the US Is Attacking Syria?


    The United States is poised to launch a missile attack in Syria, alleging that the Assad government has crossed a "red line" by using chemical weapons against rebel factions in the Syrian civil war. But are the allegations of chemical weapons use by the Syrian government credible? And what does it say about our democracy that the Obama Administration will likely launch cruise missiles against Syria despite very low levels of support for an attack among the American public? And if chemical weapons AREN'T behind the rush to war, what's the real reason driving the Administration's aggressive posture against the Assad regime?

    I'm close enough in San Diego to Camp Pendleton to tell you those bombs are not catching spiderwebs. They've been going nuts lately.
