1. Nobody cares abour arabs anyway
Peter ,   Jerusalem   (04.07.14)
Surprised? 7.5 million people starve to death every year. In silence in their beds. They dont make noise nor interesting headlines. So no one cares. But we humanitarians are to shed a tear for 150.000 dead arabs from a country that is formally at war with Israel.
2. use of chemical weapons
CJK   (04.07.14)
we live in a world where the use of chemical weapons has become acceptable. the so-called free world is under the delusion that the use of weapons of mass destruction on civilian populations does not concern them. this delusion will continue until one day they themselves will be hit by the terrorists. the obama regime has been dithering and failing to act. such failure has been a huge mistake and another stain on obama's legacy.
3. I demand BDS, UNSC, ICC, NATO, US GI's for Syria

4. #2 what is wrong with chemical weapons?
Peter ,   Jerusalem   (04.07.14)
Bombs and bullets use chemicals too. I dont see anything inherently "evil" about them. Plus, nobody cares about arabs including me and virtually all israelis. 150.000 killed is but statistical noise. That is what, 0.5% of the population of syria?
5. I demand Nobel Peace Prize to myself fo being self righteous

6. Thank You America, for saving Israel from Syrian WMD attacks
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.07.14)
3,5, not mine.
7. @ 2 Are you serious.
sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (04.07.14)
Why doesn't Israel act when it is more of a threat to Israel than it is to the US. The days of the US policeman coming to the rescue is over. The world doesn't appreciate us just by your comments. If Israel, Turkey or Jordan countries with large borders won't act than why should the US spend it's money or spill it's blood?
8. The US dosnt care anyway
James ,   USA   (04.07.14)
Despite all the screaming, no one really cares about Syria, the divisive sects and its people. The only external group fighting in Syria is Hezbolah and everyone know who they are. Bleeding hearts at the UN have done nothing for the truly bleeding. This is war that no one knows who is fighting who and what for. The US is pretty much tired of fighting endless wars to only have the extremists retake control. If the UN or Nato etc went in, 3/4 of the people would declare war on them as if they are just a different sect. Arab democracy is a pipe-dream. The only stability they have ever achieved has been through dictatorship. An Arab vote is written on the side of a bullet not with deference to a majority.
9. Thank You Israel, bombing Syrian missles,saving America butt

Obama himself said that his greatest fear is the use of weapons of mass destruction in the united states.

household chemicals also use chemicals. yet they are not banned by international treaties. keep in mind that chemical weapons in the hands of islamic terrorists can be used against Israel. the deaths of syrian children by the use of chemical weapons indicates a particularly evil disposition by the psychopath assad.
12. The Butcher Of damascus Will Continue
(04.08.14)
To Butcher women and children Until His Held Accountable or unless he is Killed, I prefer the latter, as long as syria remains a client state of tehran The Blood Will Flow!!! Now the arabs Like arab league, un and the Like Have Blood On There Hands, oh let's not forget about czar putin and the mooslum in the w.h. With His Moving Red Lines, he is also Culpable!!!

honey, israel can take care of itself. it doesn't need the usa and it never used the usa to beat the shit out of every terrorist entity and arab army for the past 65 years. obama can't hold his own d****k, not to mentin doing anything for israel or anyone. this is why assad laughs at him and knows that tyhere will be no consequences to him using chem weapons again.....as is evident right now with this incidence. let me tell you a little secret.......should assad even dare to use a single molecule of a wmd and chemicals against any israeli, i truly warn you that syria, as a country, will cease to exist. not a single person will remain alive there. none! and the first to go would be the syrian dictator. we do not play games so do not try us.

17. Rebels are being defeated and then Assad gases them?
BJL   (04.08.14)
Sounds suspicious to me. The "Rebels" (Islamists) gassed their own people to gain support and more weapons.
18. 10 so what
sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (04.08.14)
BIBI says the same crap and does nothing even though these countries are aiming missiles and building these weapons for the sole purpose to attack Israel, and the only reason Syria agreed to destroy it's chemicals is because of the threat of action by Obama, How did Hezbollah get 100, 000 missiles aimed at Israeli cities? It is because someone in Israeli govt fell a sleep at the wheel or someone is afraid to fight protect it's people.
19. Nr 7. If so - Yank go home !.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (04.08.14)
20. #11 don't blame Assad
(04.08.14)
Look at all Arab on Arab war: indiscriminate shooting and murder of civilians, torture and mutilation of prisoners as well as innocents, no such thing as a safe zone, tactical and strategic use of rape and ethnic cleansing. While JIhadis saw people apart, Assad's forces shoot little children in the back to paralyze, not kill. Assad does not have a particularly evil disposition and is not a psychopath: he is a normal Arab leader, no different than Abbas or Arafat.
