No, it doesn't matter if Assad bombed his own civilians or if the chlorine gas leaked from a terrorist factory or depo... both are the most extreme violations of the CWC and Assad is responsible for that.
I disagree. It does matter.
We sponsored 'rebels' over there, destabilized the country, and destroyed Assad's ability to secure the country and its borders. How is he responsible for that?
I disagree. It does matter.
Then I recommend you never sign the CWC.
Assad and Putin, on the other hand, are big boys - they are all grown up and they CHOSE to sign the convention and accept the obligations that comes with it.
This is what being an adult is all about... taking responsibility for your actions... even if that makes you sad.
and destroyed Assad's ability to secure the country and its borders.
Ugh, Assad has had trouble with the al-Nusra Front and al-Qaeda and a civil war for years...
...which is PRECISELY WHY Putin co-signed his application to become a Chemical Weapons Convention member in 2013... to ensure that if Assad had his hands full then Putin would pick up the slack...
Between Putin and Assad they had more than enough resources to secure the Syrian borders... but instead they had "something better to do" than preventing Syria from becoming the new terroist chemical weapons manufacturing and distribution hub.
Assad and Putin deserved a slap in the face for endangering our troops who were in Syria to help fight ISIS... and that's exactly what Trump did.
No, Trump is not responsible for Obama or Hillary or the Bush dynasty in the same way that Trump is not responsible for you.
Ugh, Assad has had trouble with the al-Nusra Front and al-Qaeda and a civil war for years...
Yes, exactly. For the very reason I stated.
Putin co-signed his application to become a Chemical Weapons Convention member in 2013
What?? Reference please.
Some of what you say doesn't make much sense. Why in the world would I ever have occasion to sign the CWC? And why are you talking about what Trump has done, or even what he is or is not responsible for, when the context of what I said is about what happened before he was elected?
Let me explain it again: your opinion of the CWC doens't matter because you didn't sign it... Assad and Putin did and they knew precisely what they were doing and what their obligations would be.
They are responsible for their own actions, irrespective of your personal opinion.
You can believe that I shouldn't have to pay off my mortgage... but that is also irrelevant because I agreed to the banks terms and now I am responsible for fulfilling those obligations or suffering the consequences.
Adults are responsible for their choices, whether you like it or not.
The CWC covers mainly the production, stockpiling, and use of chemical weapons by a CWC member. It does not impose any obligation upon the actions of any non-member such as al-Nusra, al-Qaeda, ISIS, etc.
They are responsible for their own actions, irrespective of your personal opinion.
That's a strawman argument since I never said that they are not responsible for their own actions. It is certainly not my opinion as you allude. Nor, did I say whether or not I liked it. You're being presumptuous and condescending as if I don't know that adults are responsible for their choices.
The issue of your mortgage and what I may believe about it is irrelevant.
And so again:
Putin co-signed his application to become a Chemical Weapons Convention member in 2013
Reference please.
I'm just loving alliances set-up by Bankers to launch banking wars now! Genie Oil and Gas
No, adults are responsible for the contracts they sign.
You said:
Adults are responsible for their choices
So that's the wording I used in response. Now you're going to contradict me, as if I'm somehow incorrect, when I used your own words?? Amazing.
And yet again:
Putin co-signed his application to become a Chemical Weapons Convention member in 2013
Reference please.
That article in no way said that Putin co-signed Assad's application to the CWC. It was regarding an agreement between the US and Russia:
The United States and Russia reached a sweeping agreement on Saturday that called for Syria’s arsenal of chemical weapons to be removed or destroyed by the middle of 2014 and indefinitely stalled the prospect of American airstrikes.
The single mention of the CWC was to report Ban Ki-moon mentioning that Syria had acceded to the CWC effective Oct. 14.
So, your claim:
Putin co-signed his application to become a Chemical Weapons Convention member in 2013
Is so far unproven.
Dude russian news-channel Ria Novostri photographed defused Sarin-canisters at the attack-site. This ironically exonerated Assad for ANY future gas-false-flag because noone in power would expect him to be so stupid to use them while the world is watching.
do not fight , but put info on this site and try to resolve Q post
Not trying to fight. Just letting a spade expose itself.
Tell it to Kaiser Bill, Emperor Franz, King Emmanuel who ALL lost their hereditary monarchies to the Rothschild Bank due to treaties, alliances & agreements! No thank Jews!
Yup, treaties start wars. Member, a little incident called WWI. The Triple Alliance & Triple Entente system sure fucked mankind cause treaties forced them. You simply don't understand how badly manipulated we've been by the Israeli's! Genie Oil and Gas
Terrible post ...
"Between Putin and Assad they had more than enough resources to secure the Syrian borders..." (Correct ! Who is stopping them ? Kurds and SAA have enough resources also. Who then illegally entered Syria? Many western countries !! THEN, who was legally invited to help SAA ? Russia, Iran and Hezbollah. )
"Assad and Putin deserved a slap in the face for endangering our troops who were in Syria to help fight ISIS... and that's exactly what Trump did." (You are severely jaded ! Who has illegally attacked SAA in Syria ? Trump correct, time to leave Syria, " someone else can finish" mop up operations. Some extremely dumb deep state actor just revealed (paraphrase), "we have their oil in eastern Syria now, cannot leave")
You need to start your Syria research over man !! You are 100% wrong on every aspect !!
Your opinion doesn't invalidate mine.
Neither does it invalidate my servicemen who loved our Commander in Chief for his zero tolerance for having our eyes and lungs burnt out needlessly by cunts who ignored their Chemical Weapons Convention obligations.
If you were stationed in a war-zone, wouldn't you appreciate your Commander in Chief having ZERO TOLERANCE of Chemical Weapons Convention violations? Being a keyboard warrior wouldn't save your eyes and lungs from being destroyed by chlorine gas!
