WW3 inbounddd

[Gigglepuddy]

oh please. we have been carpet bombing syria since ww2 ended and we stole the gaza strip, and gave it to the jews. when we arent bombing them directly, we are sending jew land bombs so they can do it.

Lol wtf? Who is "we"? 72 years of bombing one single country, are you sure???? Or was it like a joke over level 9000?

"we" would be America and Israel. its funny. all the countries that lost so much more than the jews in ww2, yet they are the only ones to get a free country out of it. and nobody ever questions WHY they got a free country out of a war where they claimed some 3000% of their recorded world population was killed.

history is like watercolour painting... you gotta wait a little so the colors dry and interact, the end result can be unexpected, like the Iraq invasion...

History is written by the victors.
You should be careful on what information to believe in and what not to believe in.

Looks like it wasn't a joke then, sorry pal but you have issues as all you say makes absolutely no sense, I'd suggest seeing a therapist and a history book. It all started after WW1, not WW2 btw.

Fucking military operations.
The only reason why we even reach the question of whether or not America was justified in striking Syria is if we accept the troubling and unfortunate precedent that the United States is the defacto judge, jury, and executioner for violations of international norms.

I am no military scholar or statesman, but in my humble guesstimate, international civil rights concerns would best be dealt with by sanctions by larger groups of nations and the free acceptance of asylum-based immigration from the effected areas.
The only time in which military measures would be justified are in the case of defense of sovereignty, and when sanctions are ultimately ineffective at preventing some great harm to domestic interests (see North Korea as the only real, possible, example.)

Geneva Protocol - The Protocol for the Prohibition of the Use in War of Asphyxiating, Poisonous or other Gases, and of Bacteriological Methods of Warfare, usually called the Geneva Protocol, is a treaty prohibiting the use of chemical and biological weapons in international armed conflicts. It was signed at Geneva on 17 June 1925 and entered into force on 8 February 1928. It was registered in League of Nations Treaty Series on 7 September 1929.[4] The Geneva Protocol is a protocol to the Convention for the Supervision of the International Trade in Arms and Ammunition and in Implements of War signed on the same date, and followed the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907.


2013 -Russia and the United States, in their third day of talks in Switzerland, said Saturday they have reached a groundbreaking deal on a framework to eliminate Syria's chemical weapons. Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stood side by side in Geneva as they set out a series of steps the Syrian government must follow. Syria must submit a comprehensive list of its chemical weapons stockpile within one week, Kerry said, and international inspectors must be on the ground no later than November.
President Barack Obama said in a statement that the framework "represents an important concrete step toward the goal of moving Syria's chemical weapons under international control so that they may ultimately be destroyed."He added, "There are consequences should the Assad regime not comply with the framework agreed today.

Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction: As of April 2016, 192 states have given their consent to be bound by the CWC. Israel has signed but not ratified the agreement, while three other UN member states (Egypt, North Korea and South Sudan) have neither signed nor acceded to the treaty.[1][5] Most recently, Angola deposited its instrument of accession to the CWC on 16 September 2015.[6]

As of October 2016, about 93% of the world's declared stockpile of chemical weapons had been destroyed.[7] The convention has provisions for systematic evaluation of chemical production facilities, as well as for investigations of allegations of use and production of chemical weapons based on intelligence of other state

The USA is your stereotypical cop though. It just rolls around arresting all the minority groups and looking down on everyone else. Bad attitude, worse sense of style, on a massive power trip. Plus it's fat, that's a fact.

Lay off the donuts America, most of the world is busy trying to ignore you while you behave like the kid in the class who has ADD. Grow up already.

free acceptance of asylum-based immigration from the effected areas.

They should put their shit together instead of just fleeing to other countries to leech their social security.

Grow up already.

Or straight up die.

[Potjeh]

Well it's kinda hard to put their shit together when the west keeps blowing it apart. Blame for Syrian refugee crisis lies squarely on USA because they're doing the whole thing to get a pipeline through Syria. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect them to take care of people whose lives they've fucked up.
