So you condone use of sarin gas against civilians ?

Oh really? Grow up and stop drinking Kool aid lol how are those Iraqi WMDS?

FWIW, this has been officially confirmed by France, UK, and USA. That said, what is your source of information telling you Assad is an angel, and the rebels are all villains ?

OH MY you must be right BECAUSE THEY SAID SO! .....neither of those governments have never ever ....EVER embellished anything for their own reasons , WMDs Iraq , oh but its Obama and he never lied about anything the french ........how many times did they hop in and out of NATO? oh don't forget the the French Vichy government in WWII , they didn't surrender to the Germans they took there money and rolled over.

But what it really comes down to is ....
"Hell I don't swallow everything my own government tells why should i listen to another one?"

just think about the validity about what they are declaring . Do you think if Assad pulled something like that that maybe there would be a hell of a lot more deaths and it would be more of a sure thing than what thats being said?

CNN , Peirce (i dont care if i spelled it wrong) Morgan....need i say more

well at least the French guns will get to be fired now

I am thinking a few were fired by the French at the Battle of Dien Bien Phu in 54 which was a loss by the French but that fought like tigers through the 2 month siege by the Viet Minh before being beat the ####e by artillery and then overrun. Too bad the US didn't learn anything from the French and the Japs for that matter before trying to exercise their superiority in Vietnam.

The Vietnamese at one time spoke French as a second language, after all the French had control of Indochina since the mid 1880's and later Cambodia and Laos.

Don't forget the Aussies and New Zealanders were also in Vietnam with the Yanks.

Syria has confirmed and is known to have large reserve of combat gas. Maybe YOU are the one who should stop burring your fracking head in the sand and see nothing.

That said, I do not think anything could make you believe anything, so let agree to disagree, and stfu.

The Syrians want to fight and kill each other, so let them. Why is this an issue?
 
Some of you guys are real gun snobs.

I'd take any of those guns especially if they were being given away for free.

The only thing I don't get is the constant chanting over there. It's like they only ever use two words.
 
No free lunch ever with gift from Allah. You must work for it. The one who chants the loudest get to pick first from the pile.
 
and ? Obama uses his executive power to order assassination of US citizen in foreign country without due process, does that make him "better" ? For a guy who received the nobel price of peace[0], his track record is pretty unimpressive.

Btw, I still haven't had a clear answer. Do you condone the use of sarin nerve agent against civilian population ? Does any of you (ie. pro-Assad) do ?

[0]: it doesn't warrant a capital letter

oh common, I could probably show you a dozen videos of rebels beheading people with a knife... cutting their heads off while they are alive... it's the most gruesome death one could imagine - these people are barbaric, sub human scum. Oh, and cutting out a dead soldiers heart and biting into it... nice.

I'm not defending assad, but both sides are pretty fked up.

brain washing works wonders!
 
So it's ok to live under a tyrannical regime ? The fact that Assad "allows" (the same way our government "allows" us to have firearms) does not change the fact that he is a tyrant. If the final price is a complete burn of the middle east, may it be.

no one seems to get involved in China's politics... I wonder why...
 
Yes, the French fought hard at Dien Bien Phu.

2REP was about 70% Germans, many of whom could not go back to Germany. It was the last battle of the Waffen-SS, if you will.

I used to listen to the hourly broadcasts out of there while the city was surrounded; you could get them on radio, easier if you had short-wave.

MAS-36s, MAS-49s, MAT-49s, some German stuff too, mostly MGs.

DUMBEST thing in the history of warfare: build your final redoubt in a valley and then NOT guard the hilltops to the max. French officers learn things like that at St. Cyr, it seems, along with "cran", "elan", "L'offensive a l'outrance" and "NOTRE quatre-cent vingt" and other outdated ideas that got a lot of GOOD men killed.

Good movie: Lost Command with Anthony Quinn. Lotsa Mat-49s. Different war but good weapons.

Those firearms didn't come for free. I am just about certain, they paid top dollar and then some for them.

There is a very small quantity of them. Not a big shipment by any means. Ammo is on the short side as well.

It almost looks like someone raided a police armory. That hodge podge of firearms is exactly that.

Not that they won't be effective in the right hands but it most certainly isn't anything to get excited about.


The people that control such things have their thumbs on everything that is on the open arms market. Anyone violates the cues on this one, will end up dead or eating out of trash cans.

If and when the big boys step in here, the technology of the firearms will rise in leaps and bounds. So will the quantity and ammunition.
 
Static defense without overwhelming air power can be false security. French found out the hard way in WW2 and again in Dien Bien Phu.
 
This thread had the potential to be interesting until it was derailed by a couple of mental midgets.
If I get the time, I will tidy it up and issue some infractions.
In the meantime, its locked.
