[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1194843, member: 14668"] I do [I]not[/I] think we should invade Syria. I do [I]not[/I] think we should take sides in the civil war by providing weapons to the rebels. I do [I]not[/I] think our goal should be regime change. We, as well as the rest of the region, are probably better off if Assad remains in power rather than turning control of the country over to Al Quida terrorists. [I]However[/I].... If there is [I]clear, convincing and indisputable evidence [/I]that the Assad regime has or is using widepread chemical weapon attacks, then we have a moral obligation and justification to punish the regime with cruise missile strikes. Chemical weapons have been outlawed by 189 nations worldwide, the use of chemical weapons is considered a crime against humanity and a violation of the laws of warfare, and harsh consequences [I]need[/I] to be imposed upon any regime that would use them. Its none of our business who wins the civil war, but its [I]everybody's[/I] business when chemical weapons are used against civilians. [/QUOTE]
