    BRUSSELS (Reuters) - NATO's secretary-general said on Monday he had seen evidence convincing him Syrian authorities were behind a deadly chemical weapons attack and said it would send a "dangerous signal to dictators" if the world did not respond firmly.

    However, Anders Fogh Rasmussen said it was up to individual NATO countries to decide how they would respond to the attack and he did not envisage any NATO role beyond existing plans to defend NATO member Turkey, which borders Syria.

    "I have been presented with concrete information and, without going into details, I can tell you that personally I am convinced, not only that a chemical attack has taken place ..., but I am also convinced that the Syrian regime is responsible," Rasmussen told a news conference.

    U.S. President Barack Obama has said he will seek congressional authorization for punitive action against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad after what Washington said was a sarin gas attack on August 21 that killed more than 1,400 people.

    Rasmussen said there was "agreement that we need a firm international response in order to avoid that chemical attacks take place in the future. It would send, I would say, a dangerous signal to dictators all over the world if we stand idly by and don't react."

    But Rasmussen said he saw no further role for NATO in the Syria crisis, beyond defending Turkey.

    "If a response to what has happened in Syria were to be a military operation, I'd envisage a very short, measured, targeted operation, and you don't need the NATO command and control system to conduct such a short, measured, tailored, military operation," he said.

    Well, there won't be any NATO response. I guess its okay if Middle Easterners gas their own little kids. I guess I'm okay with it. If this had happened in St. Louis or Paducah, I guess I'd be a bit more concerned with the lack of caring.

    Oh well, they were just Syrians. No need to bother about the likes of them.

    "Iraq has WMDs. It is not something we think, it is something we know. Iraq has itself admitted that it has had mustard gas, nerve gas, anthrax, but Saddam won't disclose. He won't tell us where and how these weapons have been destroyed. We know this from the UN inspectors, so there is no doubt in my mind."

    Anders Fogh Rasmussen

    You should probably do a little reading about what NATO is

    Not really. With the Soviet Union long dead, they are just mucking about, sweeping the shop floor and looking for stuff to do. Nobody really cares about Syria, so nobody is going to do anything. They can go all Rhodesia for all I care as well.

    When they've all snuffed it and there's not one brick left standing on another, maybe I'll build a subdivision there. Abandoned property and all, you know.

    NATO by its own charter can not take an active roll in Syria over the use of chemical weapons

    Nice US propagandists ignore USA chemical attacks and chemical weapons available to use again.

    Smart Mongol girl see how intelligent believers in US propaganda & lies. Mongol laugh rev.jpg

    Why do Frenchies support the kind of people that sunk their ships and killed their sailors?
    French ships sunk.jpg
    British treachery against French should not be forgotten.
    But they did forget and let the war crazies in Britain trick them over and over right down to supporting fake Muslims to attack Syria and Libya.
    Maybe they betray France in Vietnam too?

    I'm no longer at the point where I could give a damn what any leader is convinced of without offering proof.

    If there's evidence found in the streets of Syria then there's no reason it needs to be classified. If there's signal intel it needs to be declassified. We already know our government collects it all. Before launching bombs they need to anti up.

    They are the warmongers of our world, it is only to be expected they are seeing reasons to attack and maim and kill more innocent civilians. There is no good or glory in war or in warmongers like NATO. They have been a part of many unlawful wars, that is who NATO is.

    I don't care who they have bribed or blackmailed this time, it's BS.

    You have to either be a dummy or one of them not to have cottoned on by now, FFS.

    It's false flag BS, just like Iraq.

    .

    The author of the above linked article tends to disagree about Israeli intelligence "reliability" ---


    "It [Ynet on the 27 August] says that three senior Israeli military-intelligence officers are currently in Washington briefing their U.S. counterparts on the Unit 8200 intercepts. The paper also claims that the primary evidence the west is using on which to base its charges of Syria government responsibility is the IDF secret intercepts. This makes me nervous for several reasons: one, because IDF claims are notoriously unreliable. This brings to mind the Mossad’s notoriously biased “evidence” offered regularly to the IAEA to “prove” Iran’s intent to develop nuclear weapons. Two, it makes me wonder what Israel’s ulterior motives may be in weighing in like this. – German Report That Israel’s NSA Affirms Syria Government Responsibility for Chemical Attacks, By Richard Silverstein, Tikum Olam, 26 August 2013 - See more at: http://www.globalresearch.ca/commit...he-western-media/5347311#sthash.cQ2kfnl5.dpuf"

    I seem to recall that Iraq was in violation of every ceasefire condition they agree to from return of foreign nationals, war reparations to adhering to their responsibilities to allow for unconditional and immediate inspections as per UNSC 668. It's all on record at the UN Jack, google is your friend.

    Assuming most here were adults or young adults in 1996..
    .
    “A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm,” is published, which makes the following statement that will be replaced with the BS “weapons of mass destruction,” to justify the United States invasion of Iraq in 2003,
    “Israel can shape its strategic environment, in cooperation with Turkey and Jordan, by weakening, containing, and even rolling back Syria. This effort can focus on removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq - an important Israeli strategic objective in its own right.”

    The people behind this report are: Richard Perle; James Colbert; Charles Fairbanks Jr.; Douglas Feith; Robert Loewenberg; David Wurmser; and Meyrav Wurmser.

    Wonder what they all have in common - :grin:

    "Secretary of State John Kerry is calling for the overthrow and murder of his friend, Syria's president Assad, claiming definitively that he used chemical weapons against his own people.

    John Kerry was a frequent visitor of Assad's over the last few years. Perhaps no one in U.S. politics knows him better than Kerry who was complimentary of Assad as short as 2 years ago when he referred to him as a "very generous man"...

    Wonder why they have that in common considering it is an Israeli study. :roflol:

    Anyhow, nothing in there about conducting false flag (see anti semite posters acting as Hamasbara shills all over the internet on forums) operations to topple regimes.

    *sigh*

    Tell you what, Ivan-88. Go HERE. Scroll all the way down to the bottom, and listen to the Revelations ones. Each is an hour long, but he gives a pretty good review of each chapter and what it means. Maybe listen to them when you're cleaning the house or somesuch. And if you don't like his conclusions, I'll find a few others.
