Does this mean that the Syrian rebels have crossed your red line? If so, what are you going to do about it?

Chaim ,   Arad   (05.06.13)
Devorah, after watching barry's statement three days ago, he said that it has be verified that chemical weapons has been used. Now what we need to see is if it will be used systematically. Systematically? I am glad Israel is doing what is needed.
3. Carla Ponti, give us the proof
C   (05.06.13)
obviously, the rebels are not saints. but where did they get sarin? what proof is there that the rebels used sarin?
4. So .....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.06.13)
.... it was the rebels after all. Say, aren't most of those groups under the domination of al Qaeda? I wonder what else has fallen into their hands. The United States better be on the lookout. Target number one. Nice job, Obama. Planning on screwing up anything else today? Well, for you, screwing up is just business as usual. Hope no one unleashes smallpox in your daughters' school. Wouldn't that be a tragedy?

how many of military installations have rebelscaptured so far . . . ???
6. Israel saves obama again!!
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (05.06.13)
Why? I'll never know except, Israel does act and unlike obama's worthless rhetoric takes care of business. Iran is next and nervous.
7. it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest
zionist forever   (05.06.13)
The locals fear the FSA which is getting western support just as much fear Assad's troops because they are both as brutal. Both murder ordinary people if it suits them, both loot, both rape women so where is the difference other than one works for Assad and the other side want to replace Assad? I wouldn't be surprised if both sides had used chemical weapons.
8. UN says
Sane   (05.06.13)
If the UN says that it was the rebels that used the sarin, we can be sure that it was Assad. They are compulsive liars.
9. To: No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.06.13)
Are you under the impression that Assad controls all of the military installations in Syria? He does not. It is logical to assume that quite a bit of Syria's vast stockpile of chemical and biological agents have found their way to one or more of the assorted groups that make up Syria's rebels. Sooner or later, some of those will find their way into Europe and into the United States. Doubtful that any of it will be used against Israel. Israel will destroy Syria and Lebanon, and everyone knows it. The terrorists are crazy, but they are not stupid.
10. in the "rebels" ranks there must certtainly be some
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (05.06.13)
chemist who can produce this gas . The formula can even be found on the web .
11. #2 - Chaim
Devorah   (05.06.13)
Agreed. I noticed on the crawl that the White House is skeptical of the rebels using Sarin. I suspect the verification will be whatever serves Barry's purpose inasmuch as he is supporting the rebels.
12. UN undecided.
Get Real ,   UK   (05.07.13)
70k dead, many thousands maimed. How many,if any, dead from chemical weapons use? As usual the UN proportionate response to an issue.
