    I love how BTE whines about people here not listening to the perspectives of others while hiding from multiple posters. The truth is he just can't handle having his bullshit exposed.

    He spent $4M of his own money to buy the seat 3 years ago. His departure feels odd.

    Did trump promise to use his own money to campaign or was Mexico going to pay for it?

    The dissent wasn't over whether chemical weapons were used. It was over whether they were from aerial attacks or other means.

    "However the leaked "engineering report" by an OPCW member named Ian Henderson said there was a "higher probability that both cylinders were manually placed... rather than being delivered from aircraft."

    How convenient that such an attack allows Syria and Russia to claim it was the work of rebel forces. Nevermind that Syrian and Russian forces repeatedly obstructed OPCWs efforts to properly and timely investigate.

    Your "evidence" also ignores the previous use of chemical weapons in 2014 and 2015, namely chlorine and sarin.

    Using an opinion piece, something that literally has propaganda in the URL, and an activist like Max Blumenthal really isn't exactly an unbiased approach.

    Typical you would look only at the URL. I was simply looking for a PDF of the OPCW report. I found it. Could have found it in two dozen other places as well.

    Theodore Postal has issues with previous chemical "attacks" also.

    You want to know what's "convenient."

    If they wanted Assad out because of some non-violent ideological differences, like some of the situations the US has been behind before, then you'd have a case.

    This is a guy who has quashed political dissent, tortured political prisoners, and has been implicated - and would likely be proven guilty - of committing war crimes even beyond the use of chemical weapons. This is also not a unilateral desire by US politicians to remove Assad, but a condemnation by the US, the rest of the western world, and even Syria's Arabic peers (outside of Iran).

    He is the Slobodan Milosevic of this decade and he can rot in hell.
