A Statement for War - Secretary Kerry



The meaning of this attack goes beyond the conflict in Syria itself, and that conflict has already brought so much terrible suffering. This is about the large-scale, indiscriminate use of weapons that the civilized world long ago decided must never be used at all – a conviction shared even by countries that agree on little else. There is a clear reason that the world has banned entirely the use of chemical weapons. There is a reason the international community has set a clear standard and why many countries have taken major steps to eradicate these weapons. There is a reason why President Obama has made it such a priority to stop the proliferation of these weapons and lock them down where they do exist. There is a reason why President Obama has made clear to the Assad regime that this international norm cannot be violated without consequences. And there is a reason why no matter what you believe about Syria, all peoples and all nations who believe in the cause of our common humanity must stand up to assure that there is accountability for the use of chemical weapons so that it never happens again.








Lets Get Real:

This is a WAR SPEECH folks, lets hope President Obama can bring passion to his remarks when he states the action taken by the US, and folks there will be action, the next step will be up to Assad, DO NOTHING in return or  INVITE the US in to the Syrian Civil War with an attack on a US friend in the region.  Time will tell folks. 

Kerry on Syria - Syria Crisis


Lets Get Real:

One has to wonder how the liberal left is going to take that statement, so action with Russia and China opposed, no UN approval, one can postulate that the elite liberal left will cover for Obama, no change there folks, this time they will be right to do it, the liberal left elite have to get over their hatred for Bush 43 and the Iraq War, you can not live in the past forever, also the Oval does not want to be on the same page as Assad and Neville Chamberlain, being an appeaser might make you fans at the liberal NYT, history writers is another matter, you can not hide the use of WMD under the carpet, thus the expected action by the Oval.  Lets see what the results are folks. 

Syrian USE of Chemical Weapons a "moral obscenity" - Secretary Kerry

BBC News: Reports on a very powerful statement by US Secretary of State John Kerry that called the use of chemical weapons by the Assad Regime a morale obscenity. 

Lets Get Real:

Thus folks this blog was wrong, this blogger thought that the Oval would try to get out of taking any action over Syria, well even the ego of this Oval can not over look the use of chemical weapons by the Assad Regime.   No US Secretary of State would make such a powerful statement  without action being the next step, one has to wonder how much pressure the Oval came under by PM Cameron and Secretary Kerry, if the Oval does not take action the Secretary would have to resign, his word would be no good in the international community if after such a statement there was no reaction.   Thus what is the next step folks, well the general feeling is that Kosovo is the example, but one new example as stated on the BBC was that it could be Libya of 1986, when the Reagan Administration did a one shot deal to get rid of Gaddafi.   The question is what will Assad DO after an attack, if clever nothing, on the other hand, an attack on Turkey or Israel would bring in the US in to the Syrian Civil War.   Thus we shall see folks.
