UNITED NATIONS -- U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is warning that any "punitive" action taken against Syria for an alleged chemical weapons attack last week could unleash more turmoil and bloodshed in that nation's civil war.

Ban also cautioned nations such as the United States and France that may be considering such strikes that they are legal only in self-defense under the U.N. Charter or if approved by the U.N. Security Council.

Russia and China have used their veto power in the council multiple times to keep it from taking action against Syrian President Bashar Assad's regime.

President Barack Obama received key support from leaders in Congress on Tuesday for a potential strike.

Obama is going to ignore the UN .. and democrats will applaud that .. characterize it as courage.

When Bush ignored UN inspectors, democrats went apoplectic.

Sure, lets hear more noise about how this isn't Iraq.
 
I need to throw up ..

I am enjoying the cynicism that is starting to boil to the surface.

We need to face it, when the powers that be want to do something, they do it. The people do not matter.

AQ are Sunnis -Iran and Hezbollah are Shiite -bashar Assad is an Alawhite - an offshoot of Shia.

No. Iran does not benefit from AQ -though silly US are BACKING "AQ affiliates" - claiming the Free Syrian Army can cut them out of power, if Assad falls.

It's all very much "down the rabbit hole" to quote Alice and Wonderland
 
see what Bush has done to government.

even when they have the evidence you people cant back it.


Bush destroyed this country
 
desh why do you hate democracy? A majority of the usa does not want this. Why are you against the will of the people?
 
Its just as bad to believe lies about there NOT being evidence as it is to believe lies about there being evidence.


stop chasing fucking lies
 
there is clear evidence that people are DEAD!


there is clear evidence this happened folks.


Your letting Bush destroy everything
 
so what you are really saying is, you hate democracy. you think the majority has been tricked. When 60-70% of people don't want something, it's because they don't actually know the truth.

you are such a sociopath. You don't care about democracy at all, you just use it as a convenient excuse when it supports your own agenda.

In reality, you are a sociopath, and you hate democracy. If you didn't hate democracy you would respect the will of the people.
 
Uh, Desh. There are good reasons not to support military action against Assad even assuming he ordered the use of chemical weapons. Try to remember that.
