  1. There are two ways you can tell when Assad uses chemical weapons. 1) Russia vetoes UN investigations into such attacks. And 2) Galloway denies they ever happened.

  2. Trouble is, Assad apologists have used that same excuse for years.

  3. Vietnam was a fight against the spread of communism. One of the most murderous ideologies in human history. Afghanistan was a war against the Taliban, who harboured al Qaeda. Western intervention in Libya stopped the country from collapsing into seven years of war, as we see in Syria today. And the war in Iraqi toppled a mass murdering tyrant, who, like the Assad regime, Galloway supports. And who, like the Assad regime, used chemical weapons.

  4. Indeed. The napalm issue is one of the reasons why people should support the prohibition on chemical warfare. It is in everyone's interests. Although fractured and unstable, Libya is still in a far better position that Syria. And unless you claim the war in Libya would have ended on the very same day it did without western intervention, then it's obvious western intervention put an end to a Syrian-type war lasting years. The Red Cross predicted millions of Afghanis would flee Afghanistan in the event of western invasion. In the event, hundreds of thousands of Afghanis returned home to Afghanistan once the Taliban were removed from power. There are more than simply two sides fighting in Syria. It is not just ISIS vs Assad. If you don't believe me, then ask yourself who the Russians, Iranians, and Turkish think they are talking to when they say they want peace negations? ISIS? It could only be ISIS, if the war in Syria was just ISIS vs Assad, yes? Russia has vetoed yet another UN investigation into a suspected Assad chemical weapons attack in Syria. What is the point of the OPCW, if those who are signatories to it continually veto its investigations? We have already seen Russia is prepared to carry out weapons-grade chemical attacks in the UK (unless you believe it's all a big conspiracy against poor innocent Russia, in which case you should be more worried about the shape of the earth). So you can't use the excuse 'what has this got to do with us?'

  5. Hi, George! This is 3 months later, and the OPCW has indeed found "various chlorinated chemicals" at the site of the attack in Douma!
