Syria "Gas Attack"
Liam Hall
Julian Smith
Had my shitposting flag on in the first post, whoops. Pundits on the TV in my house are already asking if a military response is justified.
Xavier Fisher
you mean tens of thousands of poor innocent children
but yes this got picked up instantly by media and spun pretty quickly, US attack is almost certain.
Either cruise missile strikes on SAA assets or all the buildup in Jordan is going to be used to connect Al Tanf with K*rdish territory and cut the Iraq/Syria border
Xavier Robinson
lol
David Allen
Why does Zig Forums always assume gas attacks in Syria to be lies by default? Naturally those are perfect excuses for imperialist forces to engage in "humanitarian" intervention, but surely coherent socialists would be capable of understanding that a despotic neoliberal state would not shy away from war crimes?
Nathaniel Torres
Because that's been the case everytime so far?
James Phillips
Because most people here believe that if you dont support muh Lion of Damascus and BAZED Russia and Iran 100% then Your a NATO Shill and no Nuance
But in the case of "Muh gas attacks" its Justified because literally almost all of them have been false flags
Brandon Stewart
He knows.
Alexander Nguyen
For one thing, proof is never offered and they have turned out to be fake several times. I don't disbelieve it, but I'm suspicious. It's like with the Skripal incident. Did Russia do it? Maybe. Where's the proof? We all know that this will be used, whether Syria is behind it or not, as a potential pretext for increasing American / Western presence in Syria. Those 2000 US troops won't be leaving any time soon and I still believe that it will be considered a war with in five years for the US.

So is this legit or just lies to justify military intervention? Some people in this thread so far have said that the other ones turned out to be bullshit, but I haven't been following it that closely.
Landon Lee
Daily reminder that Bolton is now in his post and he had went before Congress in September 2003 and said Syria was a growing threat to US interests in the Middle East and allegedly prepared to tell Congress that Syria's WMD programs had reached a dangerous point. Not to mention the 2,000 US troops already on the ground over there. Press F for Syria. Imperialism is gonna move in and spread muh freedumb
Aiden Parker
B-b-but don’t you realize that we must support capitalist dictatorships as long as they fight against “Western imperialism”?
Jordan Wood
realistically it's more like 5,000-7,000
Elijah Rivera
Good point. Didn't they claim it was around 500 before the Pentagon admitted it was four times that?
Leo Torres
Why is it always gas? Can't they be creative and say they used white phosphorus or something for once?
Camden Ramirez
Why should we believe the Islamic state Fire Brigade over the official government and Doctors without borders?
Christopher Reed
The previous attacks have been proven to be lies.
Xavier Flores
Can you link something on this? I haven't been following.
Aiden Hughes
By whom, Seymour Hersh and Theodore Postol? Lmao
Nathan King
Trump is cringe.
Oliver Brown
White Helmets are loosely affiliated with Ahrar al-Sham and Jaysh al-Islam, not with ISIS.
Joshua Kelly
Putin, Assad, and Russia are once again in the right. America is such a joke. Trump is mentally ill.
Adrian Ward
Yeah a variety of different qualified people say its fake. The UN actually investigated Syrias stockpile of weapons and found no chemical weapons nor the facilities to make them.
But of course the CIA say its real and they know because the White Helmets told them so.
You take your choice who to believe I guess.
For me the timings and motives of the attacks are the most damming.
The first attack happened on the day when the UN sent weapons inspectors arrived. Before that attack I was watching videos on liveleak from terrorists demonstrating they had got nerve agents from Libya. There was a video where they gassed a little bunny rabbit and that Assad would be next.
Then there was the attack where they said Assad droped chemical weapons and then dropped explosives afterwards. That makes absolutely no sense because the whole point in using chemical weapons is to preserve the infrastrucutre. Otherwise modern conventional weapons are much more effective.
This recent attack happened just after Trump mentioned pulling out of Syria.
The white hats are embedded with the Al Nusra Front, ISIS and most of the other terrorist brigades in Syria.
Its a complex situation its hard to pinpoint exact groups. We know for 100% sure they are a pro Islamic terror, anti Assad force that is highly funded by the west.
Aaron Bailey
They're not even trying to be subtle about it, they know that the western public is going to eat this up.
William Nelson
You do realize that Al-Nusra and ISIS absolutely hate each other, right? How can White Helmets cooperate with both of them at the same time?
Brandon Edwards
Why the racism?
Nathan Morales
I guess because they are in different locations.
That is like asking how can the London fire brigade serve Tottenham supporters and Chelsea supporters at the same time.
Nathaniel Robinson
This is an absolutely retarded analogy
Jonathan King
I always thought it was a simile.
Aiden Flores
Assad is Gang Weed bottom text
Evan Parker
maybe i've missed it but what are these people's excuse as to why Assad would gas his own people en masse? like what does he have to gain by doing this hypothetically?
Samuel Harris
he's a dictator and that's what dictators do user
Dylan Morris
/bane/ pls stop
Jonathan Lopez
The only motive I can possibly think of, and its a bit of a bizarre one is that Assad wants to show the people of Syria that he can be reckless and self destructive and still succeed. Like to strike fear in their hearts or something.
I know that makes no logical sense but it might make sense to a muslim.
Ayden Ortiz
Oh boy, where's the evidence?
Kevin Fisher
Kys you subverting scum.
Jackson Martin
Why do you show up in every thread to denounce Syria? Whose payroll are you on?
Kevin Lopez
This fucking board is chock full of imperialist agents and other zionist scum. Fucking hell the BO needs to fucking purge these cunts.
Nolan Gutierrez
No more wars for Israel. Neoconservatism is an ideology championed almost solely by Jewish intellectuals:
Richard Perle, Paul Wolfowitz, Douglas Feith, Michael Ledeen, Scooter Libby, Krauthammer, David Frum, Robert Kagan, Kissinger, John Podhoretz, Alan Dershowtiz, Bill Kristol, Max Boot, etc.
And of course their friends in the media have presented the dichotomy that you either support more wars for Israel or you hate the evil "white" Israelis oppressing brown people and you want provide aid to said brown people.
Reminder that Google's HR department has the same views on race and diversity as Antifa, good job fighting neoliberalism by doing the bidding of pro-open borders capitalists who want to flood the labor market with third world retards to lower wages.
Jordan Long
You didnt mention which side of the argument you think the zionists and imperialist scums are on?
Brandon Martin
Dominic Howard
Gee, what would an authoritarian dictator gain from terrorizing his population into submission? I have no idea.
Brandon Foster
On the side who think Syria would just bomb it's own fucking people with gas and give greater justification for the west to interfere?
Literally the only reason you motherfuckers think assad would do this is because "Those crazy ayrabs!!!"
Chase Morgan
...
Jace Morales
We all know what Gadaffi gained.
The scorn of the international community. Then a no fly zone over his country and finally being stabbed in the asshole by his own people.
Its totally insane to think that Assad would want the same fate as Gadaffi.
Luis Richardson
Jesus look at the fucking tragedy that is this post.
Gabriel Hill
Why would Assad "gas" his own civilians, when he has pretty much won the Civil War? He has nothing to gain from it.
Camden Jenkins
Because HE'S SO CRAZY! SO CRAZY that he didn't use gas when he was losing, but now that he's about to win, HE CAN'T HELP HIMSELF! LITERALLY DRUMPFTLER!
Daniel Butler
Yes, nobody ever commits war crimes because they make you look bad. This is why atrocities have never been carried out in human history.
Jason Carter
gotta keep the news new
Ryder Morales
How's the weather in Tel Aviv, Shlomo?
Thomas Baker
Nobody has ever fabricated atrocities on innocent people throught history in order to drag uninvolved people in to their ideological wars.
Jaxson Green
Why would Israel "murder" Gazan civilians, when it has pretty much won the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? It has nothing to gain from it.
Isaiah Taylor
And you're probably the same liberal who accuses others of being conspiracy theorists. Loving every laugh.
Lucas Baker
Ummm yes it does have something to gain from it, self-evident in them expanding israel's territory westward with every cleansed area.
Holy fuck just leave the board, you're so transparent. Fucking kill yourself stooge.
Logan Taylor
Because there's no risk of the US invading them if they kill more Palestinians, you dishonest kike.
Jack Ross
How dense are you faggot?
Christian Ramirez
All according to plan
Noah Gutierrez
You're probably a furry.
I win the hypothetical insult war.
Jason Cox
TRUMP IS DOING THIS MERELY FOR SHOW
Joseph Ward
23 dimensional snakes and ladders confirmed
Nolan Moore
There was no risk of intervention from a powerful foreign entity in all the shitty inaccurate comparisons posted here.
Israel killing Palestinians =/= US intervening
US killing Indians =/= France or UK intervening
Joshua Bell
Anybody got those 2014 tweets from Trump criticizing Obama for his Syria policy?
Owen Gutierrez
Even ANN FUCKING COULTER is smarter then Zig Forums
Parker Rodriguez
A lot of his most critical tweets were about the US arming the terrorists. Which has almost stopped now.
We just fire missiles at airfields and waste loads of money.
Landon Ortiz
Here you go
Ayden Baker
WTF I love Based Ann Coulter now.
She can be the new queen of Zig Forums
Kevin Gomez
I mildly want to US to invade but just for Zig Forumsyp Americans to go cry that their god emperor isn’t perfect would be a very retarded reason to expand US interests unless it literally was because of a Hitler 2.0
Julian Ortiz
ANN COULTER IS NAZBOL GANG
Jace Reed
Have I been shadowbanned? No one has responded to my post which doubles as both truth and bait.
Brayden Garcia
That is what the Zig Forums-Zig Forums split is all about
Carter Bailey
I see your post, you're right user
James Nguyen
Interesting how recently "enemies" of the US are starting to use chemical weapons. When they actually have increasingly little to gain from it. And it's always seemingly easy to trace it back to them.
Sarin gas attack in Syria. The nerve agent attack against Skripal, who was already convicted and posed no threat or anything. Now a chlorine gas attack in a city that basically was already won back and hits mainly civillians.
Zachary Lopez
lel, literally a year on the day from the last "gas attack"
Jose Gutierrez
Wow you're right
en.wikipedia.org
Dylan King
wtf is that picture?
Ryan Murphy
Thanks fam
Easton Brown
it says le_strike on my screen. Lmao.
Nicholas Russell
This book needs to be read more. Zig Forumsyps like it, but it's not even a Zig Forums-tier book.
Chase Martin
Cooper Wright
it's actually nice
Isaiah Baker
It wasn't sarin user, you don't use training gear and bare hands for a nerve agent attack: just saying.
Isaiah Cox
You know what I hate about this? I can see a social-democrat being elected against all odds, doing all the things we didn't "vote for", and the Left making this same type of bs excuses.
Xavier Edwards
I remember arguing a couple days ago that Trump was basically the president of peace and he's never going to go to war with Iran or attack Syria again
I wonder how he's doing right now
Oliver Sanders
*Arguing with someone a couple days ago
I wasn't arguing that
Elijah Nguyen
Do people actual believe that? He kept US troops in Afghanistan, upped the number in Syria and kept up our military spending, not to mention stuff like the debacle in Niger. Same policies, different figurehead
Jonathan Martin
He tried to increase US military spending ten fold
Landon Thompson
Apparently so. He argued because he did the first audit of the DoD, that he's the President of Peace
It's fucking absurd, but he kept asking for evidence and then disappeared into a cloud of Sam Hyde reaction images.
Eli Martinez
lol you said Niger
Owen Sullivan
Except in this case it isn't. Money talks and the white helmets have fuck tons of it thanks to western interests.
The groups will put aside their differences to up their own funds when the white helmets come along for photo ops. It's a lot like how rival criminal organizations will put aside their hatred and rivalries with sufficient incentive. In fact it's exactly like that because these groups are just criminals too.
Sebastian Wood
Right now it is. But it's only April. Shoah! Shoah! Shoah!
Ethan Reyes
It's been 737 days since April 1, 2016 (from today, April 8, 2018).
So at the rate of 55 forest fires/2.019 years, or 27.24 fires per year, it will be 220,264 years until Israel has suffered 6,000,000 forest fires. Oy gevalt, remember the 6 gorillion trees.
Gavin Rivera
I'm all in favor of having the capabilities to defend this country against legitimate threats at home (i.e. ones that directly imperil the American people), but there gets a point where it is absurdly higher than every other country and used only as a tool of militarism and imperialism.
Kek as one would expect
Anthony Butler
Militarism is a great national focus, gives you more manpower.
Jonathan Taylor
In theory. In practice…..
Gabriel Reed
half of those fires are in Palestinian territory retards
Ethan White
Get out
Nicholas Taylor
a gas attack like 1 week after Drumpff implied leaving Syria wud be good
that is waaay too convenient
Jacob Sullivan
Reality has a Jewish bias. Not the media, reality.
Xavier Allen
the fuck does this even mean
