UK and Syria

I think there'smore justification to go into Syria than it ever was with Iraq and Afghanistan at the time

There is no justification for this war, just because USA don't like President Assad, it is no excuse to attack Syria. The conflict in Syria is an internal problem, and by USA supporting the opposition, which is made up of Islamic terrorist groups who are already against the West. For them they see it as a holy war against President Assad.

We don't know which sides have been using chemical weapons, its all propaganda. Why should we risk our troops, just to suit USA's foreign policy. When the UN found no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, the war was still never justified and why should British troops risk their lives again.

Its okay to ignore the crimes of what Israel are doing in the West Bank and Gaza; because they're American allies. But when it comes to civilians getting killed in Syria, the USA are up in arms and want to bomb the country.

Even if we provide weapons to the opposition, one day they'll be used on us. I hope President Assad does win the war, because the Syrian rebels are terrorists who need to be stopped.

Are Isreal using nerv gas and naplam to kill innocent people then..?

We can't sort out our own country! We have feral youth, drug problems and god knows how many illegal immigrants. Once our own house is in order we can perhaps help get other houses in order.

Spot on. This is the problem lots dont see. I say send the feral youth to Syria.

There are women and children being gassed to death and many of you prefer to turn a blind eye!!!

do you know who did it?
do you know more than America, Britain and the UN do?
if you want something to be done you have to target the right people because if it was the rebels and not the government and we attack the government we have helped the people who gassed women and children

so no Adam its not turning a blind eye its searching for the truth before we make wrong decisions

They're still killing people regardless of what methods they use. Sadly people turn a blind eye regarding the situation of the Palestinians. They're not important enough because they don't have any oil or gas.

No one knows who's been using chemical weapons in Syria, neither do the UN, so how can this potential new conflict be justified.

We can't sort out our own country! We have feral youth, drug problems and god knows how many illegal immigrants. Once our own house is in order we can perhaps help get other houses in order.

Yes, we have all of that, but we don't have people being slaughtered on our streets in big numbers.

This may not affect us directly, but as a human being I don't think this is acceptable or should be allowed to continue, do you?

I agree that what is going on is disgusting.

Look at Iraq and Afghanistan-they had bad human rights records before we went in. Now the situation in both countries is ten times worse plus we now have al Qaeda and splinter groups posing security threats to this country.

What people need to bare in mind is, if we intervene militarily (which we are supposed to if negotiations and sanctions fail), it won't be a full blown invasion. It will be naval and air strikes.

Do the rebels have any aircraft then Jonny to drop such bombs or are you thinking that they can go around spraying Nerv Gas and Naplam through a flower sprayer..?

There are people being killed in every country it's not our problem, lets sort our own problems out before others! I'm sure
If you asked the public to vote on entering Iraq, Afgan or Syria then majority vote with be not to go!

Let's try to find a way to bring peace back to Syria that doesn't involve one million people dying.

This answer is poor!!!!!
Of course he doesn't
I'm sure the American and British government do!
And I'm sure in the interests of the human race we will do the right thing!

As Ive previously stated that is far more justification in my opinion to go into Syria than it ever was to go into Iraq and Afghanistan. Maybe many of you would have a different opinion if you've ever seen the effects of such agents with your own eyes

positive it was an air drop then?
show me evidence ive not heard any confirmation that the chemical attack was from any kind of aircraft.

There's a lot more deaths than sees the media....
What about people being raped kidnapped every week is that not just as bad?
Syria is not our problem no point in getting involved.

You don't need an aircrafts to use chemical weapons, the rebels may have different delivery system (e.g. (land based missiles)

As has been said we dont know who is actually using the chemicals, its already been shown the rebels have done some nasty stuff during this conflict. As much as I want the UK to go in and help the civilian untill we know who are actually the bad guys its best not to intervene

no they dont otherwise the UN would have released an SCR and would give the backing to any coalition that would want to take action or even sent their own peacekeeping force in, as that hasnt happened and neither have the UN weapons inspectors confirmed whether chemical weapons are in the country or who has them, im yet to see any evidence or reason why we should be involved

UK wont do nothing with Russia's advances.

doesnt say if there against or for action,but russia have said prev they will side with
syria

The US have been spraying their people for years, lets bomb them.

Christ all kicking off out there. Just watching the news now and everyone looks like Freddie crouger after that chemical bomb got dropped. No doubt now David will send a few of our troops out there to fight when there no need for us to get involved

But he's not proposing that at all

Adam you should know more than anyone that politics it's not about doing the right thing it's all about who can make the most money! Iraq and Afgan was simply motivated by drugs and oil, if for one second you don't believe the government don't bring drugs into the country then your nuts.

I say let then be, why should more of our soilders die fighting someone's else's war! Iraq and Afghanistan was all about drugs and oil, why else would our military been guarding the fields, it's all Bollux.
Money is power so anything which gives a substantial income will be protected.

But we aren't sending any soldiers. Keep up.

So the government bring drugs into the country then??????? what type, interested in this one, if you are indeed talking about Afgan!

Nope, like I previously said not out problem let them sort it out themselves.
