| Syria asks UN to 'prevent any aggression' |
| 2013-09-03 |
| [Dawn] Syria has asked the United Nations ...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships... to try to "prevent any aggression" against it, state news agency SANA said Monday, as the United States weighs military action against Damascus. "The Syrian government calls on the UN secretary general to assume his responsibilities ... and to make efforts to prevent any aggression against Syria," the agency said, quoting a letter from Syria's UN representative Bashar al-Jaafari. The letter also urged the United Nations to help seek a "peaceful political solution to the crisis" in Syria, where more than 110,000 people have been killed in violence since an uprising against the regime began in March 2011. US President Barack Obama My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it... is seeking approval from Congress for military action against Syria in response to an alleged chemical attack on Damascus suburbs on August 21 that killed hundreds. Much of the international community, including the United States, Britannia and La Belle France, has accused the Syrian regime of carrying out the attack, a charge that the government in Damascus denies. US Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you knowKerry Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat,conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State... on Sunday said Syria used sarin gas and La Belle France on Monday was set to provide what it says is clear evidence the regime was behind the alleged chemical attack. "The Syrian government repeats once again that it has never used chemical weapons," Jaafari wrote in the letter. "The world was expecting the United States to play its role as a sponsor of peace... by preparing seriously for the Geneva conference on Syria, and not as a country that uses military force against those who oppose its policies," he added. |
