Re: Why the U.S. should invade Syria.

...I can't believe that your church support this kind of crimes against humanity. Children are our future, without them, the world is lost

Then you're not a Christian.

A Christian believes those children have eternal souls. When compared to the eternity after death that their soul will spend in Heaven (or Hell, whichever), the few decades of life we get here on Earth pales into insignificance. This whole life is just to set up your forever.

That being established, where does your soul go after death? To Heaven (if you were a good enough Christian during your life) or to Hell (if you made any other choice, and no excuses like, "I was born somewhere that they didn't teach us about Jesus" or "I died from a childhood disease before I was old enough for Sunday school").

So all those children in Syria? There are a few Christians, but likely Coptic or Orthodox, and they don't use the King James Bible so they're probably not doing it right and might as well be Muslim. The rest of them are Hell-bound in their present state. The True Christians™ here care enough about them that they don't want them all to burn in Hell forever like you want them to.

What would you say to any of the 460 children that have already died, on August 21, at the hands of their own government's forces? "Yes, we have a treaty on chemical weapons, explicitly banning their use against anyone, anywhere, for any possible reason, that was signed by the leaders of almost all the nations on Earth (including Syria, the U.S., and Russia), that states that contravention of that treaty is grounds for severe, immediate repercussions, but we felt that actually doing anything might offend someone, or someone innocent MIGHT get hurt [oh, right, you're already dead] but so long as our consciences are clear we can just overlook the fact that failure to respond in a meaningful manner will just give our tacit approval to ANYONE TO USE THESE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION AGAINST ANYONE AT ANY TIME else we might look like hypocrites, so sorry for the agonizing death, we really should do something about it but it's not convenient right now".

Re: Why the U.S. should invade Syria.

Looks like anyone who looks like a threat for USA must be eliminated. That's wrong, and just justify that most of arabic and muslim countries hates you, of course I don't support terrorism, but you know, you don't have to be arabic to be a terrorist. In that country they also have children, I can't believe you support the murders of million of innocents, you're not better than them



Do you see that? This is what you win with absurd violence, I can't believe that your church support this kind of crimes against humanity. Children are our future, without them, the world is lost

Re: Why the U.S. should invade Syria.

...Even if the Russians don't get involved someone else might...

No one else (of any military significance) has interests in Syria or the present regime, aside from Iran (who will not go toe-to-toe with the Americans, because they know they'd get slapped silly).

...The Russians seem to have a fairly good navy/airforce and they have excellent tanks...

Tanks were great until someone invented shaped charges and guided missiles (ie. RPGs), let alone smart bombs.

...China and at least 10 other countries buy military tech from Russia...

FTFY.

... China also buys energy/fuel(oil, coal etc.) and more machinery from Russia...

FTFY.

...China getting involved is something to consider...

China's just objecting because crushing peaceful protestors with tank treads worked for them the last time (see Tiananmen Square, 1989) but what if they (the CCP) have to deal with a large-scale, well-armed rebellion like the Syrians are doing, and if someone involved in that squabble then goes and lets loose a few CX munitions against civilians in Xiaxiong or somewhere then they don't want a precedent set.

...What if China gets involved economically and cripples the US...

Do you ever wonder why people at the top don't panic over how much the Chinese are buying? It's because it's American assets (or even better, debt) they're buying. If they went and "attacked" the US economically, they'd be shooting themselves in the foot. If the US dollar goes down in value, what the US pays in interest on their debt falls, and that means LESS money for China (and it costs a lot to feed, house, clothe, educate and care for over a billion people).

...Although other countries seem like a big deal the US is always the main instigator of towel head conflicts...

Because the banana republics don't have oil. This behaviour isn't new.

...Who teaches rebels how to make IEDs? Who give them weapons?...

If you give neither side weapons, then whoever wins will look at you and say, "Where the hell were you when we fighting for our rights/freedoms/liberty all that stuff YOU say is important?".

Re: Why the U.S. should invade Syria.

The last time the Russians saw combat (aside from the odd Chechen skirmish) was Afghanistan in the '80s. That's over 30 years ago. In the last decade and change most American combat troops have seen multiple tours in Iraq and/or Afghanistan. So, um, you were saying?



Solely as a check on American world power. They share no political and few economic interests.



The human race is calling, wondering why you left.

Finally, an atheist has arrived. Ok ok my bad the current russian forces most likely have little to no combat experience aside from the extremely short Georgian war. The Russians were unequipped for a major war back when the Chechnian war began. That's why the Chechnians kicked their butts, they werent combat ready in the second war either but the Russians won. Even if the Russians don't get involved someone else might. The Russians seem to have a fairly good navy/airforce and they have excellent tanks. China and at least 10 other countries receive military tech from Russia. China also receives energy/fuel(oil, coal etc.) and more machinery from Russia. Does that make china and russia really good friends? No, but china getting involved is something to consider.

Who teaches rebels how to make IEDs? Who give them weapons? The US of course. But thats all nothing compared to what their planning next. They might try to assassinate Ron Jeremy before he can run for president in 2016!!!

Sand rats? Slaneesh, you're welcome to state your opinions, as uninformed as they are. But we don't tolerate racism here at Landover, so you can't call Arabs "sand rats." The polite term is "towel heads."

Re: Why the U.S. should invade Syria.

Pastor Zeke, I'll be the first to admit that the US military has gone downhill since sodomy was made a requirement for Basic (thanks Obama), but even the queerest Marine is better than any commie soldier.

What branch of the military were you in? Anyone in their right mind knows that messing with Russia is a bad idea. Being gay has nothing to do with combat experience and ability. The average Russian soldier has better training and skills than a us soldier and possibly more combat experience fighting a conventional army. Gays are barred from the Russian military ranks. This kind of information is open to the public. Russia is also allied with china. Its best for the US to let the sand rats kill each other.

Amen Brother Smyth - there is nothing like a US sodomite to strike terror and fear into the hearts of a mooselimb. There is no way a mooselimb is going to spend eternity with allah and the virgins if he takes one up the rectum from Uncle Sam (not to mention our bacon tipped ammunition).

I'm interested in this question too. I'd like to know which branch of the Soviet Army lets retards serve.

Re: Why the U.S. should invade Syria.

Iraq was using outdated Russian handouts for a tank force. Lol it takes 1 an airstrike for Americans to kill one Taliban insurgent. The Russian army has higher training standards for their soldiers. Their soldiers are well equipped, trust me.
