Hating on free people is not the only thing that you need to get into the Everyone Should Work For Someone Else's Enrichment Club, but keep it up, one day you can retire and live free when you're old.

when someone uses WMDs against their own people like this, retaliatory action is mandatory.

i'd be ashamed if we sat idly by while someone gassed thousands of their own people.
Exclusive: CIA Files Prove America Helped Saddam as He Gassed Iran

The U.S. government may be considering military action in response to chemical strikes near Damascus. But a generation ago, America's military and intelligence communities knew about and did nothing to stop a series of nerve gas attacks far more devastating than anything Syria has seen, Foreign Policy has learned.
Wouldn't be the first time the US supplied whackos with CBRN capabilities...

We (the US) should not get involved because it is none of our business. One country's civil war is their business only. But will we anyway? I'm not sure. I don't think the Obama administration has the nerve to do it unilaterally. It won't be the UN because the RF and China will never agree. It could possibly be NATO because the civil war can potentially threaten Turkey, who is a member a NATO.

agreed 99%.

but we do need to send the message that gassing your own people is a big no-no.

No we don't. Even if we did, we have to prove Assad gassed his own people.

Syria's deputy foreign minister said on Wednesday that the United States, Britain and France helped "terrorists" use chemical weapons in Syria, and that the same groups would soon use them against Europe.
Speaking to reporters outside the Four Seasons hotel in Damascus, Faisal Maqdad said he had presented U.N. chemical weapons inspectors with evidence that "armed terrorist groups" had used sarin gas in all the sites of alleged attacks.
"We repeat that the terrorist groups are the ones that used (chemical weapons) with the help of the United States, the United Kingdom and France, and this has to stop," he said. "This means these chemical weapons will soon be used by the same groups against the people of Europe," he added.
This is especially true, when Syrian Diplomats are going around Europe insisting that they have evidence that they didn't and that the Western backed Al Qaeda terrorists did.

why would they bomb the gassed area and fire on the inspectors?

and don't US spies already have intelligence letting us know it was assad's regime?

i'd cite an article but i don't really care enough to do so right now. i just saw some headlines while i was trimming over the last 4 days.

i just looked it up, news outlets right, left and center are all reporting that US spies obtained info that assad's regime was behind the gassing.

not that there was any real doubt anyway after he bombed the area again and fired on inspectors.
