On NPR the death toll from the Chemical weapons was 300. That's what eats me

[uponit7771]

...about this whole thing in Syria

If you're going to use a nuke, or anything close...you blow up 2 - 4 cities...and make sure to take military bases with them.

Otherwise, what gives with 300 people that aren't fighting!?

If I was AQ and wanted to carry on OBLs will of bleeding the US dry financially, I'd do something like gas a bunch of people of no military significance.

Please Mr president, consider the sources... this looks like a bunch of crap on the face of it..

Why would Assad now use chemical weapons when the conventional ones were working just fine?!

For what!?

No UN investigation on the chemical attack even though it was agreed upon here recently that would be done...even Russia agreed?

Don't trust any of that

1. The media wants everyone to believe it is half the population

It is more sensational that way and helps sell an even more sensational story - War!

Once again, the media is telling americans what they are supposed to be thinking.

[FBaggins]

2. So... which is it?

That you think it didn't happen... Our that killing 300 people isn't all that big of a deal?

[uponit7771]

3. Neither, I don't think Assad did it... 1 person is a big deal that's why you just don't kill 1 or 30

...or 30,000 with WMDs.

You're not trying to off a city block because the back lash will be overwhelming

[NightWatcher]

4. We'll kill 300 with 3 days of cruise missiles

Which is the better way to die? (Rhetorical)

[uponit7771]

5. RIGHT!! bunch of BS dick wagging by the MIC...Hagel "position marines" for all options as if the

...only option is attacking

[kelliekat44]

6. Why would Asaad regime risk their own security to just kill 300 with poison when they were able

to kill many more with their weapons?
