ocelot2006:


I suggest you read about the conflicts in the first 2 countries you mentioned. First of all, the Iranians won't fight conventionally. Why not ask the Americans about Iraq were Iranian Qud Force supplied insurgents with the training and weapons? And why don't you ask the Isrealis about the disastrous 2006 Lebanon War were a small but highly trained Hezbollah (funded and trained by Iran) practically shattered the myth of the IDF's invincibility? As we speak, Iranian IRCG Special Force Qud are on ground in Syria fighting against the rebels.

With respect to Kosovo, you forgot to mention that the US and NATO failed to stop the Russian VDV (Airborne) from taking over the airport there in the mid-90s. And how about South East Asia were the US Navy has failed to curb China's growing military influence?


Oh btw, the Russians just delivered more sophisticated Air Defense Systems and Attack Helicopters to Syria. How come the US couldn't stop them?

Stand by and do nothing? In what world have you been? America has been doing underground work long before now, just that the Assad regime wasn't budging and the U.S. just declared their intentions OPENLY. Thanks to their Russian Allies, that have voted "CONTINUOUSLY with A NO" to Syrian sanctions. Let me ask you, all the diplomatic and military defection in the Assad regime, you think diplomats and generals just thought it was nice to defect? Come on man, live in reality. Assad was committing a Human Right violation but he did not pose any threat to other nations like having nuclear weapons like Iran does...

Asking the CIA and probably in the future sending military artillery down there with spiral the events of what's gonna happen. Ain't no telling just like Libya, Syria WILL NEVER remain the same. I love America, but I got to say the truth sometimes, American leaders are doing too much, in this case work with sanctions and diplomacy not arming rebels with sophisticated weapon that U.S. may never get back or even control.

snowdrops: And to use the NL cliche. . . .

How does that change the price of Garri in the Market.

I beg to disagree, America is helping to make the world a safer place.

Amalaaba: Somebody wrote that America/Israel has never been humiliated in war; sorry, you are wrong.

America was humiliated by Japan in ww2, but for the use of Nulear weapon they were completely messed up. We are also familiar with their humiliation by Vietnamese.

As for Israel which is a proxy country for America was roundly messed up by little Hezbollah in 2006.

I think Annan is wrong to have accepted the job, but i absolutely agree that he should resign, because the West would not let negotiation work. The west blocked the diplomatic intervention of Africa in the Libya crisis, until they achieved their target.

As for those who call Assad a killer; please don't forget that Assad was trained in the west and married a Swedish lady. The country was essentially peaceful, until the west thought it is time to dislodge Syria in preparation to invade IRAN as they have done in over 30 countries in our recent history.

stuhporh:

Bro! i disagree with you totally on Isreali-hezbollah war also known has the Lebanese war. the Lebanese were greatly harmed and the isrealis had taken over some part of their country before the UN helped in the resolution. please try verify this. and am very sure,

Billyonaire: The Syria Mission is a delicate one, Annan needs to stay away before this gets to WW3, America, Britain and Qatar has been arming the rebels, while Russia has been arming the Government. I dont know why Assad is not ready to step down and spare his life. This war, will take every of their souls. Someone has to talk to Assad. Once that chemical weapon stock-pile gets into rebel hands, it might finds its way into Nigeria. God help us.
