state the obvious!

US has such a hypocrisy and rhetoric. it come up with many reasons to justify its acts. 1- ( Attack will punish Assad but not eliminate him).. Any attack WILL NOT punish the Assad, He is save in a well secured bunker or place. US are killing first or second line soldiers who in all cases dont have a say of what happened. 2- (Killing by gas is NO NO ). US OKAY killing by conventional weapons and don't mind 100K killed before including children. but if the source of killing is gas then its a red line. Who is more important, the people killed or the type of weapon. Where is the logic in US and West politics?

Guess he had to come up with something for the anti-Israel lobby to pounce on, such as "Here we go , helping the Jews fight their wars again." (They will appear here soon too, no doubt) Well, he got one part right, international norms have no meaning. Where were the "international norms" when 1500 rockets were fired into Israeli civilian centers? Where were "international norms" when a Jewish family was slaughtered by the same terrorists that Israel is now being blackmailed into giving up even more of what little land they have?

"Barack Obama is young, handsome, and tanned." - Silvio Berlusconi, Prime Minister of Italy

He's going to act to protect Israel? What a disgusting statement from a vicious, underhanded anti-Semite!

Suddenly, he cares for Israel? What a phony piece-of-trash!!!

israel can handle chemical weapons so don't pin your actions on israel. Moreover, israel can take care of itself and doesn't need international help.

I am no fan of Cameron and he is no friend of Israel but at least he tried!

Hypocracy is the Vaseline of political intercourse Most world leaders are adept at Hypocracy and look as if they use a lot of Vaseline too, no matter the crisis they always so well groomed. Obama, Asad, Cameron, Bibi and Putin all seem to look so perfectly combed( well maybe not Putin ) no matter the crisis. Most of us would not have time to think of such trivia

The bloodthirsty tyrant Odumba wants yet another war. It has nothing to do with Israel. Leave us out of it and we are more than capable of defending ourselves

Obama mentioned Jordan and Turkey as well. Israel always wants to feel its special which it is not.

It is my belief that any so called limited action will only play into the hands of Assad and his inhumane terrorist cronies. The only way to get the message across to the fascist regimes in the region is to invade Syria and fight until the Assad fascist government falls.

And they certainly know how to make us feel bad. with high falutin morality But we just cant send our children off to war for this however hard you try to convince us. The Arab league must deal with it.

his nuclear facility? I liked that point. Such a shameless man, just salvaging some pride.

Obama swore an oath: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” Nowhere do I see Israel, the poor people of Syria or any other people or country. To attack Syria he MUST ask Congress for approval. Dilly dallying and indecisiveness are not against the Constitution and thus he cannoct be Impeached. The Montreal Gazette: "OTTAWA - Canada may have sharp words for Russia over its stance on Syria, but when it comes to next week's G20 summit, Stephen Harper and Vladimir Putin appear to be on the same page." Why should Obama do anything if the rest of the world doesn't The root cause of this matter are Russia and China but the world wants cheap goods and American companies want to invest in both counties. Money talk, bullshit walks and those are the facts of life in the 21st Century! The rest of NATO seems to have chickened out too.

any thing of importance as now been removed , scuds and other stuff , so what are they going to bomb the element of surprise is attack, mr Obama is begining to look very silly

Churchill must be turning in his grave.

Obuma is not beginning to look silly. He has looked silly for a long time!

Over 100,000 have been killed but no one did anything. But may I suggest that you need to also look at the fact that Russia is behind this and USA can't just attack Syria. We don't want to have ww3 unless there is no other option. Not all answers should end up with USA. How come Suadi Arabia does not interfere? USA cannot be the police of the world all the time. There are 22 Arab nations. Where are they?

USA's. It is sad that they are killing each other but they will not appreciate this gesture form the west.

Zaina greeting U i need your help

British Parliament Vote last nite was correct!

Why doesn't Israel lead by example and do it themselves instead of expecting the Brits or anyone else to fight their wars for them?

Greetings Its another trials for mankind how to solve the Syrian crisis? But before taking any drastic action against Syria, let us first try to consider the innocent people of Syria who I think doesn't have anything to do about their conflict? Why not invite the two warring parties involve into a more civil discussions to resolve their differences? Let Russia and China be the leading negotiator so as to defuse the tensions? But of course the Allied shall also be there and the UN? There is no impossible in trying to resolve the issue not unless other hidden agendas are not being presented on both side that would spark into a deadly war which is costly and uncivilized to be considered at this modern age?

everybody will KNOW, not just THINK, that as a president, I'm just a joker desperately surviving on empty, meaningless and frothy speeches. Look, you can see I really don't want to do this and you can see too, I really don't know how to go about it, but I just have to do something, anything to regain some credibility. Please be understanding, get out of the way, go hide your weapons and allow me to blow up a couple empty buildings. Your cooperation will be much appreciated. And remember, I'll allow you to keep all your chemical weapons, but please, please, please, don't use them again because it really puts me in a spot!!!

Now if this whole thing winds up turning into a debacle, the anti-Semites will bring this up and try to portray it as "another American war that was fought for Israel"... Thanks Obama... really appreciate it.
