    I have mentioned before, you don't know much about intelligence. How did the VDC confirm the attack was chlorine, delivered by Assad's forces?
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    Yeah you did....but you didn't know what you was talking about. So that's not saying much. They didn't say what was being dropped other than the bombs mentioned. Of course you not knowing the difference between munitions and their results says a lot.


    Activists from the Violations Documentation Center (VDC), which records alleged violations of international law in Syria, reported two separate incidents of bombs believed to contain toxic substances being dropped by the Syrian Air Force.....snip~

    I appreciate you making an effort to appear cute. You consistently fail.

    What is their evidence? How accurate has their previous reporting been? Who specifically saw something and what specifically did they see? Has any part of their observation been corroborated by an independent source?

    Yes, with the help of Russia and Iran, Assad has stayed in power. With the help of the West, we've crushed ISIS, albeit it's still active. Assad can gas whoever is left once we pull out.
