The hell you talking about?

None of those situations are even close to what's happening in Syria. I agree whats happening in Palestine is atrocious and the banking system is a mess but in Syria the government is systematically killing thousands of its own people.

you clearly don't know much

the bankers and military industrial complex murdered millions of iraqis

so many plaestinians have suffered

 

and you say they are not close.

and why do you think NATO will do any good,they haven't solved other areas and you think they will solve this.

stop this stupid thinking that killing 100 people to save 1000 is a good thing

 

also the killings were by protesters not syria.israeli weapons were found after syria government killed the rebellion.

 

 

 


You really really need to have a massive anti-west bias to think that what's happening in the USA is more atrocious than what's happening in Syria.

 

anti-west,do you even know what that is?

i am not pro or anti anything.just a logical thinker

 

stop taking sides.

@Snake.

You didn't say Iraq - you said in the USA with the bankers. That has nothing to do with Iraq and neither did the bankers. And while I agree that the Iraq war was not a good idea and that many thousands of deaths were caused, even the highest estimates put the death total toll below a million - certainly the US did not murder millons of Iraqis.

I also never said Nato should intervene, that would be kicking a hornets nest. I think Arab countries should take responsibility in this case.

"also the killings were by protesters not syria.israeli weapons were found after syria government killed the rebellion."

Oh I've got up to this point. No point going any further.

Israel should take over Syria. Have to protect those interests in the Golan Heights, and any democratic Muslim regime is just going to end up supporting Hezbollah. They need a dictatorship, they just need the right kind of dictatorship, one which will keep the Arabs in line.

I can't believe there isn't more international uproar about Israels occupation of the Golan Heights =/ they have absoutley no claim to it.

Might just be because it's overshadowed by how the Israelis are treating the Palestinians though.

Yeah... I do not remember killing any Iraqis. In fact, it did happen a few times. By accident. But usuauuly US army artllery is so accurate it does not miss.

Is it cliche to blame terrorist? Well blame them! We may have only made it worse, but can you really blame us for going there? Yes I AM SURE there were some agendas on the part of America, but sorry to wake you up from a sound sleep all countries have agendas. We still went there to help. Because no one else will. Millions murdered all over the world with no one to help them. I say let America have an agenda as long as some suffering can be ended, as long as for a few night of peoples lives they can sleep withought worry.


The world says america needs to get over itself. Sure as soon as you do the same.


millions of civilians died in the war

the cumulative death toll is around 1.5million

which arab country do you think has any real power?

also USA,israel and NATO would obviously help and then try to get their influence.

 

if violence were really that big the syrian people would themselves overthrow the govenment.

 

this thinking that Anglo-american empire are the good guys should really stop.

leave all the countries alone and manage your own shit.

 

set a good example and people will follow you eventually.

 

when you babysit other governments you enslave its people

Screw it, America's not helping. Whenever we try to be nice and save the day, the world yells at us. I think we've learned our lesson.

The UN is useless as always, NATO doesn't seem to have too much to do with the conflict, and the Syria's non-Israel neighbors are pussies. Nobody will do anything. Deal.



My friend is a Vtuber, check him out.

@Snakenobi. The Syrian people are being massacred because they tried to overthrow their own government. The government is committing a brutal massacre against people who dissent. They've done it before when they crushed a Muslim Brotherhood uprising years ago.

Oh and a coalition of Arab countries would certainly be powerful enough to enforce save zones within Syria. Turkey, Kuwait and Qatar probably taking the lead.

Also millions of civilians did not die in the war. Estimates range from ~100,000 deaths to ~650,000 deaths. Huge numbers yes, and undeniably awful, but it does no good to spread misinformation.

And you blame America? I think that because of us more were killed. We did not personally kill all that much ourselves. But by the US being there is what caused the killings by Terrorist. I would let you argue with me about it but I was there. Watching on cameras, monitoring all right from Sadr City section of Baghdad. Sadly it was not even a lot of the terrorist country. They just came from wherever and killed. Forced families to do horrible things! Kids eating in piles of trash in what used to be a grand city. The world wants to put the blame on a lot of things on America. But you need to put some blame on yourselves. Grow up. I am not saying we are perfect, but look in the mirror first.

the world doesn't put the blame on american people but the corrupt government

this is where you need to think freely

 

stop taking sides

 

oh i am an american so i will try to put the blame away from  my country.Rather accept the mistakes and correct them

 

look in the mirror?

 

i am from india and my country is full of corruption and one of the shittiest places to live,i am looking in the mirror and accept what is wrong with my country cause that is the only way my country will improve.

No arab nation want to support Hizbalah (the fuckheads). Only the Iranian and Syrian government want to do that and most likely Shia Muslims as well as lost Sunny Muslims (I don’t the those lost idiots) who don’t know what’s right for them  

 

People talking about the Arabs stepping in should consider that most arab countries have their own problems or do not have the weapons they need to do anything unless you guys want them to go in with rocks and knives!

 

People don’t care that Arabs and in particularly Muslims in general are being killed. What business do they have saving these people? The only reason any big country steps in to “help” is when they can benefit from it all like America “helping” the Iraqi people when in fact they only went there for the oil! America “the global force for good” (I laugh every time I se that fucking commercial!) is not helping anybody they are in fact making it worse for Muslims!

 

I’m glad people in Syria are finely fighting that fucking leader of theirs and realizing that Hizbalah is bad! Just like the other arab nations killing their leaders this fucker will die a painful death (hopefully). It will take time but they will eventually win in the end. People have lost too many close ones to give up and just forget anything ever happened.

 

And Israel should mind its own fucking business!

 

Rant over and I’m ready to get banned now!
