In reply to the discussion: Sources: Intercepts show top Syrians preparing for chemical attack, discussing afterward [View all]CthulhusEvilCousin
(209 posts)28. Of course they do
It's the same kind of silly paranoia, don't you think? No one is even talking about occupying Syria or nation building. We're talking about bombing targets filled with Syrian government goons who ordered chemical attacks on civilians. But yet you're talking Vietnam, Iraq war, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, etc. It's these sorts of comments, not mine, that are completely nonsensical and ridiculous.
So go fly off on a UFO and maybe move to a country you won't hate as much.

There's no reference to specific planning for this attack by any higher-ups -- only vague reference

Best guess is this info comes from Congress members who were briefed earlier this evening.
