You know I have come to actually enjoy your internet personality. I hope you are similar in normal life.
So to be the devil's advocate to your argument with 2 questions.
You say and imply that the chemical weapons need to be removed at any cost. How do you feel about the United States and great Britain's use of depleted uranium in Iraq? (Recently Isreal used depleted uranium on Syria)
Depleted Uranium has/is causing hundreds perhaps thousands of birth defects, not to forget that there are thousands of people dying from cancers and that their environment is now a severely toxic wasteland incapable of being cleaned up.
How is taking a nation's nuclear waste and bombing innocent people somehow acceptable but poison gas is not?
Just to make my perspective clear : I do not believe in nations or any form of gouvernement. I believe a happy world is one in which all politicians and military commanders have had their necks placed in the yoke of a guillotine. The only side I support in this conflict (and all conflicts) is that of the innocent. I view people that support war, declare war and willing go and fight wars as subhuman cancerous disease.
