[Closed] Syria

I think we should finish off sorting out Iraq, before moving on to sort out Syria's problems.

Maybe Afghanistan too. And Libya is still a bit of a mess apparently.

Too much Russian Influence, bullies only pick on countries where they don't put up a fight.

I think we should finish off sorting out the "Invade Syria" threads we've already started, before moving on to a fresh one.

Maybe the Afganistan and Libyan invasions threads too.

The number of threads being started in favour of taking our military into foreign countries is a clear demonstration of the power of propaganda.

Perhaps we should sort out our own country first

Just a thought

You know what this country needs? A good war that what, haven't had one of those in a while.

And perhaps Assad should stop murdering his own people which would help...

Just a thought

How long before our NATO friends the Turks gets dragged into this conflict? It wont be long before the Kurds in Syria stream across the border into Turkey - which is likely to inflame the Kurdish insurgency.

And perhaps Assad should stop murdering his own people which would help...

Help what - less threads on the issue ? Sadly some people are just damn inconsiderate.

And perhaps Assad should stop murdering his own people which would help...

Absolutely. It is a real crime against humanity and we've wandered into conflicts over less....

Russia & China stand their grounds so what others are going to do eh? Start a nuclear war? Eliminate mankind? Reduce world population? 😈

Read about the massacre in Hama in 1982 and you'll see what they are doing in Homs now, just down the road: [url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hama_massacre ]Hama Massacre[/url]

The Syrian regime is the nastiest of them all and the state security apparatus is so deeply entrenched in society that nobody dares speak. It is deeply sectarian and extremely unstable. At the moment with support from Russia and China and the Arab league having failed to do anything at all, Assad must be feeling pretty optimistic. The fighting will probably rumble on for many months or even years while the world watches helplessly. The alternative is equally frightening; if the regime did collapse the lid would come off the Pandora's Box of Syria and the country would explode into civil war. I have good Christian friends in Damascus and I fear very much for them if that happens.

Start a nuclear war? Eliminate mankind? Reduce world population?

Sounds like a plan 😆

Actually as there's so much stupidity going on in the world at the moment, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if this was some madman's agenda...

I guess those regions have some bad blood with the regime due to being treated as part of a family business or property that can easily dispose off. No surprise there.

Anyone else think this all has shades of the former Yugoslavia?
Someone needs to do something about it......
