SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Syria conflict: 'Chemical attacks kill hundreds'

A rumoured 3-days air campaign against 50-70 targets will neither impact on the chemical arsenal, nor will it seriously hurt the Syrian forces _ scattered across the country as they already are. Obama does it as a show only - and to get himself out of the corner he boxed himself into.

And the rebels - I heard a comment on radio today, describing the state of the FSA as even more inferior as I used to see it, and reminding of that not only is it outgunned and outfinanced by the radical groups, but that the socalled FSA for the most consists of former Assad soldiers who switched sides and now switch again and running to the radical groups, due to them outfunding and outgunning the FSA.

And these kind of guys, from which civilians flee as they flee from Assad troops as well, these airstrikes will give some relief. Must that be a case of getting involved at all? Worse genocides have gone unnoticed and uncared for in the past years - much worse.
