syria civil war

Or so a lot of JREFers think in this Syrian gas attack thread: http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=318402 And the usual suspects: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2017/apr/07/unproven-online-theories-doubting-syrian-gas-attac/

It's too early to make a lot of sense out of the gruesome chemical attack in Syria that killed a number of children. Assad denies Syrian forces are responsible. What I see (sorry to sound so cynical) does not have the staged look of other child casualties. Anyone can put up pictures of bloody...

Assad as he kills his own citizens Iran , China, Russia as they support Assad The rebels as they are refusing any kind of...

But on which side? According to the UN it's the rebels who may have been using poison gas. Fancy that. So, since they crossed the red line we should pile in on Assad's side, right? The US is having none of it: 'Highly likely' huh? Well, how would they know? They didn't know...

I'm trying to understand why China and Russia would block the Security Council Decision to sanction Syria see Russia and China Block U.N. Action on Crisis in Syria. It doesn't seem they would offend anyone in the Arab world since the Arab league has already spoken out against Syria and Syria...
