Since Assad uses non-precision bombs without any kind of collateral damage restraint, yes it would be fair to say they are "less nice".Also, Assad uses bad bombs, not nice bombs.

I highly imagine that most people just want it to end and the rebels have played their hand weakly enough that they have no choice but to continue to fight, getting the support of a large majority of the populace is hard enough in democratic nations... least of all this.
Ignoring that, lets open up the statement that people oppose him... of course they do, they live in a tribal mindset in a tribal culture, and he's going to have enemies based purely off of that (didnt really work out for Libya).
rebel mortars are highly precise and never killed anyone, the suicide bombers are martyrs.
and ofcourse the side which is clearly winning is the one using chemical weapons when it would make no sense from a strategic standpoint.
who's spreading this crap anyway? the syriam observatory for human rights? which was that one man guy who lives in coventry
...I am inclined to disagree I'm afraid.more likely to have been a terrorist storage house hit by the airstrikes rather than the Russians and Syrians using something so crude and so easily identifiable that once this **** storm is over can really get them ****** over in the international courts?
In fairness so does Theresa May but they aren't running around the country with heavy weapons attacking police/soldiers/civilians
is this the same sources that told us about the definite WMDs in iraq?
why would syria need to pay north korea for this crap? surely they could just make it themselves, they must be more advanced than NK in pretty much everything
but I guess when you add the big baad north korea in their the story suddenly becomes more credible
No!they must be more advanced than NK in pretty much everything
Haha. Funny but very apt.
Funny, because it's true.Haha, not funny at all, i'm afraid.
HehNo it isn't are you an intelligence operative or a government administration with full knowledge of the situation in Syria?
No, you aren't.
I have an important question here that i sometimes wonder about though, why do you care about some arab/muslim backwater?
It's all that is warranted when the tin foil hat brigade post such lunacy. You're one of them though so....great post 10/10 IGN
lol good one though coming from a jihadist supporter it's a bit rich
The main difference between conventional weapons like bullets, shells, explosives is that you can at least to some extent choose who you fire them at, with chemical weapons - they just exterminate everyone in the entire area, so I think it's pretty problematic to compare chemical/biological weapons to conventional weapons - simply because both can kill.
I agree it's not our fight, but if women and children are being melted by chemical weapons in an act of genocide, it seems reasonable to step in and take action, especially if you have the capability to do so on humanitarian grounds, especially considering that if action is not taken - it'll embolden the aggressor into perhaps going even further?
I am sorry that stating people are pro dictatorship insulted you and hurt people's feelings.because we ask why would assad do that when he is winning the war and he has everything to lose and nothing to gain from it you call us pro dictators ?
how about you provide some proof that he did the chemical attack rather than childish insults
then please do hand over all your evidence that a chemical attack was carried out by assad, you could save the investigating teams a whole bunch of time.
Lol. Clutching at straws!And where was the outrage ? Where was the UN security council meetings and threat of having missile strikes ?
Oh there wasn't any because Israel is on our side of this stupid ******* game of political chess
It's unsettling that you do think our leaders motives are altruistic when they're nothing but political moves in order to suit their own and their friends agendas it's why they show a blind eye to the Saudi dictatorship and actively fund the war in Yemen, if our leaders were such bastions of light they would not be allies with such scum and would be denouncing all atrocities instead of cherry picking the ones which suit their political agenda whilst ignoring the others and covertly assisting in them
I didn't say it's ok to use white phos and I didn't say it's better to drop big bombs. It is less worse to drop bombs though, particularly if they are direct fire, precision guided munitions.Because if you drop a few thousand lb's of bombs in a residential area the people are going to be less dead than if you drop some chemical weapons on them right ? Please, show me a war in the last 100 years where there has been zero collateral damage to civilians
I think you're missing the point of the absurdity to claim that it's better to kill another human with one method over another in war, war is ugly, it's far from clean and people need to stop living in this fantasy world that rules are going to make death in a war less terrible, saying white phos isn't comparable to chlorine gas just highlights the absurdity like it's ok to use white phos but don't use chlorine because it's worse, they're both equally bad
Is it really worth escalating over because some civilians died in a war that has been going on longer than WW2 ? That we helped start ?
Then why are we even discussing Assad using chemical weapons ?
And if you think I have hippy idealistic views you yet again show your absolute ignorance like you've done for the last few days, I also care not what you think because you're as insulting as you are petulant, you should grow up and actually try to offer intelligent discussion instead of resorting to weak insults every time you confront someone who disagrees with you. Your cognition is utterly bizarre if you can think that me saying "who cares if he used chemical weapons or bombs it's the same result" equates to me being a peace loving hippy but keep on being insulting if you want.
I think given that we've already had confirmed chemical attacks in the past and given that the rebels don't have airpower, only the regime... then a helicopter dropping chemical weapons is thanks to the Syrian government.
Bit of a difference between criticising views vs being outright insulting which you unfortunately have a habit of resorting to when you run out of anything remotely intelligent to say.
Well they still have the likes of John Cantlie held hostage and since a 4k camera is easily purchased off the shelves these days, I don't think the idea of ISIS throwing together a high quality production is really a great stretch. I'm confused why you find the concept so absurd. I guess the jihadi John videos were fake cia productions too?I think most people understand that it was a video for the Mannequin Challenge, but what it shows is they are expects in faking stuff, like the high production media team for ISIL who produce videos in 4k..
I'm sorry, I read your post that you was implying ISIS vids were fake due to their high quality. It seems I misinterpreted.I don't understand what you saying or your point. lol
Jihandi John was real, his videos was real, the people he killed was real.
