When do you reckon these military strikes will occur, will Iran or Russia get involved?
What's your feelings in the situation?

All the other countries we have invaded must be running low on oil, need a new reserve.

What exactly are we going to hit? Or is it all a bit of bluff to try and stop Al Asad gassing citizens?

Yup it is a crock of shyte, the middle east has wanted to have a currency that they can trade against the price of oil. If this comes off then the good old U.S. of A will have nothing and it will crumble. Mr Ghdaffi and Mr Saddam Hussein are the latest victims of this war. Its a load of bollox, USA and the UK pull the wool over their nations eyes by saying they are at threat and start war mongering.
Annoynimous put a link out over a year ago stating that USA and UK will be helping with the chemical weapons used in Syria and put the Blame on others resulting war and them taking control of more oil.

Using chemical weapons is the military equivalent to spitting on someone in the street, its just not done. So the people who did it should be punished. Whether we should wade in or not. I'm not sure, but if we do for Iraq etc.. Then we should for this. Not saying we should of done for Iraq, but if you do 1, you should do the other.

The objective doesn't really seem clear to me.
So we go in there to stop chemical weapons? How the fuck does that work? Is there a one stop chemical shop? Or is it littered all over? If its the latter then here comes another 10year war.
I'd be fucking fine with it if they where honest about the fact they would be after securing stability in the Middle East and using the opportunity to slap a couple of big bases and airfields near Iran and Russia.

A message has to be sent. You can't let a country like Syria use chemical weapons, even more so on it's own people. As I say, a stark warning has to be sent, and clearly Assad isn't listening to anyone.
If you say let Syria get away with it, then that sends a message to the Chinese, the North Koreans, Iraq etc etc
I reckon a couple of days of attacks will send a message. Make it short, make it swift, make it as direct as possible.
By all accounts in that part of the world the UK/US have a fair few ships, subs located, so that's sorted for the missiles.
And is Assad using chemical weapons? 99 Per cent yes. The UN is out there and has said as much. It's basically proven he has been.

Feel the same about this as I do about the Iraq war
It's a load of shite.
Going into another country to essentially sort it out and get it running properly. Can't even run our own fucking country.
Probably was the u.s that was using the chemicals to make it look like the Syrians so they can justify going into Syria and getting the oil
It's all aload of total utter shite

Have to agree with the majority, I think theres probably other motives than just helping the country out.
You'll also find that all the materials for the chemical weapons were probably bought from the UK/US as well.

You thinking UK citizens should be allowed to vote on something important is exactly why UK citizens aren't allowed to vote on important stuff.

Joe Public is far too stupid to vote on anything important, they shouldn't even be allowed to vote for the government they want in power.

Did make me curious when Sky News mentioned a poll that The Sun readers had voted on with regards to what we should do about Syria, which made me think, that's like asking Telegraph readers who will win Big Brother.
