"High probability" Syria has used chemical weapons

[quote]There is a "high probability" that Syria deployed chemical weapons in the ongoing civil war, but final verification is needed, the chairman of the U.S. House Intelligence Committee told CNN Tuesday. "I have a high probability to believe that chemical weapons were used," Chairman Mike Rogers (R-Michigan) told CNN's Wolf Blitzer. "We need that final verification, but given everything we know over the last year and a half, I would come to the conclusion that they are either positioned for use, and ready to do that, or in fact have been used." Rogers and Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-California), chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, struck ominous tones in an interview on CNN's Situation Room about the possibility that Syria had crossed what President Barack [b]Obama has said was a 'red line' that could lead to the United States getting involved militarily in the conflict.[/b][/quote] Uh-oh Bungie, how do you think the U.S. should respond if Assad used chemical weapons?

      Why does the US have to play "world police" like a dumb little bitch.

      • I personally don't see why we should get involved. It just seems like a reason to keep us over there. If we are doing it for the people then I guess we should also free the N. Koreans from their death camps too.

      • Possible Syrian invasion? Guess it's a great time to be flagged for PT.

      • Personally, I hope this doesn't happen. Our economy is already over burdened, so I don't think that we could sustain a large scale intervention that Syria would require.

      • I'm not seeing this news anywhere about a "high probability". So, I'll wait until this is actually confirmed as to start worrying about this. Anyway, a military involvement of some sort would be the best option for the Syrian people. This action would be multilateral, of course, since I don't think France or the UK would idly sit by. This would also help with our fear of the wrong people coming into power.
