France Prepared To Invade Syria Even Without British Support: Hollande
Itar-Tass
August 30, 2013
France is prepared to invade Syria even without British support
The refusal of the UK parliament to sanction a military strike against Syria will have no effect on France’s stance on the issue. Paris does not rule out that the operation may be launched September 4, after parliamentary hearings on the Syrian crisis, France’s President François Hollande stated, as reported the French newspaper Le Monde. -

Establishment, Careerist Republicans Strike Back Against The Right WIng "Fringe"
You probably heard about how poor old doddering McConnell stumbled right into a right wing trap, tarring all the Kentucky teabaggers as "fringe," which, of course they are. But Republicans aren't supposed to talk that way about what's now their party's base. Local Tea Party leaders immediately blasted McConnell in a very public and very damaging way:

US and France press on with Syria strike plans as Britain, Germany opt out
Al-Akhbar | August 30, 2013
British lawmakers have rejected their government’s call for military strikes against the Syrian government, leaving the US to look elsewhere for international partners while reserving the right to act alone against Damascus.

While Cameron Defers to Parliament, Obama Locks into Warfare State of Mind
The British Parliament’s rejection of an attack on Syria is a direct contrast – and implicit challenge – to the political war system of the United States.
"It is clear to me that the British Parliament, reflecting the views of the British people, does not want to see British military action. I get that, and the government will act accordingly," Prime Minister David Cameron said Thursday night. At least for now, Uncle Sam’s poodle is off the leash. -
The “International Community” is shrinking
As per Prof. Noam Chomsky, now that the U.K. is no longer supporting military action against Syria, "The International Community" is down to three countries: U.S., France, and Turkey.

Beijing: No excuse for strikes
Editor's Note: This op-ed recently appeared in the China Daily, and is reflective of Beijing's official stance on Western military intervention in the Syrian conflict. After the international humiliation of the NSA leaks, the United States would surely find itself increasingly isolated in diplomatic channels if it went ahead and intervened in Syria outside of international law and under false pretenses.

KOL076 | IP Debate with Chris LeRoux
Kinsella on Liberty Podcast, Episode 076. IP Debate with Chris (aka “Sid Non-Vicious”) LeRoux, hosted by James Cox. LeRoux claims to be an anarcho-capitalist and former Randian but not a libertarian (he doesn’t like labels, you see). He was recently arguing kinda for IP-but-not-really on Shanklin’s podcast (see below), and contacted me about these issues. As […]

The Return of the Dodgy Dossier
The War Party’s Syria narrative is beginning to unravel – and, with it, support for yet another US military intervention in the region. Initially, we were told the US had incontrovertible proof the regime of Bashar al-Assad was responsible for attacking the rebel town of Ghouta with chemical weapons, and that the substance involved was […]

Will Boehner Stop Our Rogue President?
The next 72 hours will be decisive in the career of the speaker of the House. The alternatives he faces are these: John Boehner can, after “consultation,” give his blessing to Barack Obama’s decision to launch a war on Syria, a nation that has neither attacked nor threatened us. Or Boehner can instruct Obama that, […]

So, Is It Time To Get Behind Cory Booker Now?
Same crap, though one wears blue panties and one wears red panties (big ones)As you may recall, Blue America backed-- vigorously backed-- Rush Holt for the Democratic nomination in the New Jersey Senate primary. Newark mayor Cory Booker won, and won big. On the Republican side of the fence, an extremist sociopath, Steve Lonegan, won the nomination and he's genuinely far worse than Booker on almost everything.

King’s dream still just a dream after 50 years
As America marks the 50th anniversary of a landmark speech delivered by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, it’s fitting to ask the most important question: has the ‘dream’ of a just society built upon a foundation of morality and equality actually been fulfilled?
Or is it merely a collective delusion that all must accept? -

Selective ‘obscenity’: US checkered record on chemical weapons
RT | August 29, 2013
The US charge against Syria is being driven by Damascus’ alleged use of chemical weapons against civilians. While Washington is quick to intervene on moral grounds, its own checkered past regarding WMDs may put the world’s policeman under the spotlight.

Updated: 5 Minutes To Self-Immolation Of The Israeli Empire
Israel Shahak wrote a foreword to his translation of Oded Yinon’s 1982 paper for the World Zionist Organization which revealed Zion’s plans for America, Israel, the Mideast and the world. The Israelis claim all the land in the Mideast from the Nile to the Euphrates. All America has to do is to evict all 300 million people already living there. Wesley Clark was given a list of 7 Muslim nations after 911 that America was to invade. That 2001 hit list originated in Israel in 1982. The last nations on that list are Syria and Iran.

The war on Iran begins … in Syria
As the United States, along with its European and Israeli allies, prepares to launch yet another illegal war of aggression in the Middle East, the geopolitics of the US strategy could not be more apparent.
Despite the high-minded talk of humanitarianism, the US is advancing a transparently neo-colonialist agenda aimed at securing hegemony in the region by destroying what little opposition remains. (Read entire article) -

Indispensable Imperium: War Against Syria To Shatter Obama’s “Legacy”

Strikes on Syria will shatter Obama’s legacy
By Clifford Kiracofe
====
In the last few days, Obama has spoken of the US as the so-called “indispensable nation,” a phrase first used by Madeleine Albright, former president Bill Clinton’s secretary of state. Albright was the key figure behind the US and NATO military intervention in the Kosovo War in 1999. -

Republican: Kyrsten Sinema "Participated In Pagan Rituals, Singing And Spiraling"
Reactionary Arizona New Dem, Kyrsten Sinema is one of the half dozen most conservative Democrats in Congress. Her voting record on crucial roll calls is worse than even Blue Dogs Mike McIntyre's and Jim Matheson's, who both represent deep red districts (unlike her own). She votes more frequently with the GOP than even fellow Arizona ConservaDems Ann Kirkpatrick and Ron Barber. Unquestionably, she deserves to lose her seat next year.

Drawing Red Lines with Syrian Blood
It doesn’t matter whether or not Bashar al-Asad used chemical weapons. The US and its allies are going to carry out an attack on Syria in the very near future; the reasons for this attack have nothing to do with the recent incident in Ghouta.

‘The Spectacle of Fearsome Acts’: Syria and the ‘Credibility’ Fallacy
“You know how I stayed alive this long? All these years? Fear. The spectacle of fearsome acts. Somebody steals from me, I cut off his hands. He offends me, I cut out his tongue. He rises against me, I cut off his head, stick it on a pike, raise it high up so all on the streets can see. That’s what preserves the order of things. Fear.” -Bill the Butcher, Gangs of New York

NY Times Op-Ed: ‘Bomb Syria, Even if It Is Illegal’
I really can’t add much to this…
Here’s the link.
At least it’s an honest argument. And it’s the same for many people now pining for another U.S. war in the Middle East: “the law” is just some antiquated, idealistic notion that doesn’t apply to states, especially when you’re the most powerful nation on Earth…our might makes it right. -
