Thread Name: BS: Homs horror (Syria, 2012)
Subject: RE: BS: Homs horror
No Keith - I am not singling out Britain - I have said all countries who deal in death by selling weapons to despots are as bad as one another - "they are all criminals and no better than one another"
These "atrocities committed by the regime in Syria," are being committed with weapons sold to Syria by Britain (you pointed that out yourself) that is not "hi-jacking the thread it is part of the "Homs horror" - why aren't sniper rifles a part of that "horror" or do only Russian and Chinese weapons count.
You have been shown what damage is being done to civilians by these weapons yet you have not uttered one word of condemnation on their being supplied by our government - and you still have not commented on the sale of weapons to Gadaffi.
You continue to whinge about "thread drift" (having denied you ever did such a thing) yet now we have "is it right to allow armaments to reach the appalling regime in Gaza Jim?" - is that part of the "Homs horror" too?
Why not open a new thread to debate it?
