11 G20 States Urge 'Strong Response' to Syria Chemical Attack
2013-09-07
[An Nahar] Eleven G20 states on Friday called for a "strong international response" to a chemical weapons attack in Syria they said was clearly carried out by the regime.
"Manolo! Fetch me the stiff notepaper... and my best calligraphy pen. There's a strong response to be written!"
"The evidence clearly points to the Syrian government being responsible for the attack, which is part of a pattern of chemical weapons use by the regime," said the statement which was supported by states including Britannia, La Belle France and the United States.

"We call for a strong international response to this grave violation of the world's rules and conscience that will send a clear message that this kind of atrocity can never be repeated," said the statement which was released by the White House.

#10  Not much hand wringing over 100k dead before the gas attack. Those people are just as dead but not gassed so it is ok. Throw out a few heart wringing zingers and the well fed elites see opportunity knocking.

#7  G20: The Syrian chemical attack was horrible. SOMEBODY MUST DO SOMETHING about it.
Germany: Not us,though. UK: Us neither. Russia: Hell, no. ... The rest of the G20: Umm, not us either.

I don't think the US should get involved at all. However, the G20 should just STFU unless they are willing to DO something about it.

#1  Well, write up a feasible Operations Order and send it. It never hurts to try. Also, make sure there are some back up FRAGOS in case it gets nasty.

Europeans are warriors, unless it comes to budgets.
