Thread Name: BS: chemical weapons in Syria
Subject: RE: BS: chemical weapons in Syria
I maintain that depleted uranium was used on Iraq and is one of the components of the destruction of the health of the Iraqi people. This has been verified.

Obama may be making a terrible mistake in military intervention in Syria which is a replay
of the invasion of Iraq. The UN inspectors should be allowed to continue their work before any action is taken by the U.S. The action must be diplomatic otherwise a royal mess will be created in Syria just as it has been in Iraq. Iraq is now embroiled in a religious civil war. Syria will follow suit and that country will be equally destroyed.

Invasion of Syria will not make anyone safer and could be the catalyst for further attacks
on the U.S.

Obama is following a Bush approach through lining the pockets of military contractors.

If Obama does this, the U.S. will receive a condemnation from the world community.

Most of the so-called intelligence evidence for the use of chemical weapons is coming from Israel, and the Netanyahu government, not a reliable source of information.

We don't know how and who here. Let the UN inspectors do their work before jumping
off into a face-saving by the Commander-in-Chief.
