I also am scratching my head at not only the timing of these chemical based attacks, but its purpose(other than the obvious). | ||

Because, clearly, the enemies of Syria and Iran didn't use false flag operations, assasinations, coup d'etats and terrorism to achieve their goals, right? The situation is really fishy. I have serious doubts that Assad is behind this. He's not some irrational North Korean leader. | ||

The chemical attacks have been going on for several months: Source FYI this is probably the most important french daily newspaper. There is no other reason than Assad was loosing ground against the rebels and used all the weapons he had at his disposals, knowing that the international community would never have the balls to go up against Russia. | ||

The guy is a fuckin barbarian, and probably didn't even blink when he asked the military police to kidnap, toture or the regular army to shoot civilians, while his spolied wife goes out to shop gucci all fuckin' day. Really guys, being suspicious of the info. we get through regular media is one thing, but you're being downright stupid here. | ||

Assad has been making a lot of headway recently and wasn't the last "chemical attack" also really fishy? Why the hell start now when your winning? It makes no sense, if you really want to kill a lot of people you have air superiority and cluster bombs. He's a brute but he's not a stupid brute. But Russia will likely call the UN on it if they try to act. | ||

[...] As I wrote a little higher, the chemical weapons usage has been going on since the end of May (probably before), which was before Chiite help from Iran and Lebanon really came into the play and the rebellion was actually gaining ground. Syria let UN inspectors in only now because they probably consider that there is no chance left of the insurrection of actually prevailing. | ||

Sadly, the help of Iran/Hezbollah has really hurt the Syrian Free Army... I'm pretty afraid that Asssad letting UN in is a sign of The insurrection being definitivily stopped. | ||

The same media that lied about various American/Israeli operations or constantly misquoted Iran's president, and so on. I really doubt Assad is targeting actual civilians here. Foreign mercenary insurgents are not civilians, even if they're posing as such. And if anyone is a barbarian here, it's the terrorist rebels that eat corpse of their enemies... | ||

It'll suit your perfectly. Cut the crap man, stories of the political prisons of Assad's Regime have been around for years. Why the fuck did the revolution start in the first place? Please, just 'cause your learnt where Syria is a month ago, doesn't mean you should participate in discussions about the real world. | ||

And you sound like a useful idiot brainwashed by pro-American media. Revolution? What revolution? It's an insurgency carried out, for the most part, by non-Syrian mercenaries, and sponsored by the USA-Israel coalition, which wants to destabilize Syria in order to have an easier time invading Iran. And since there's no bottom-up revolution in the first place, I disregard its proclaimed motives. | ||
