You would have to argue that the deaths of Putin's opponents are somewhat of a massive coincidence. And when coincidence reach that extent, the onus shifts to proving the contrary or providing other culprits.
No evidence just allegations. Just random acts of crimes mostly.
Yes, people should stop bitching about the use of nerve agent on their soil shouldn't they? Dumbest statement ever.
Yes, you should stop bitching. Stop harboring and protecting criminals from foreign countries and no one will get poisoned in your country. But once you harbour foreign citizens who committed crimes in foreign countries, you are the one who created the situation. It's more like Taliban complaining about airstrikes after harboring Al-queida.
Take up France's intelligence with some of our French members. There was a very good explanation over on militaryphotos.net providing the proof as to why Assad's forces perpetrated the 2013 strikes. Contaminated shells were of a type only used by Assad at the time. The direction of fire was from territory controlled by Assad into opposition territory.
No concrete evidence whatsoever ever, just statements.Syrian goverment demanded an international investigation and it never happened since the accusers failed to produce any evidence. OPCW already certified that they destroyed the chemical weapon stockpile of Assad, however they also said in their report that they didn't destroyed or inspected chemical facilities under the control of Militants since they refused to give access for OPCW to the facilities under their controll.
All dictators are terrorists. What the hell constitutes lawful? By his own law? IS was the lawful government of IS under their own law. Terror and fear is no legitimate mandate to rule.
UN accepted regimes are considered as legitimate goverment in the view of international law. That is why Assad's goverment have the voting right in UN. UN never accepted ISIS goverment or Taliban goverment for example.
Assad is a hero who is protecting his country from being overrun by salafist Islamist militants
Theoretically, yes. Many of European countries are monarchs who sucking up to a historically dominant family in that country.Kings and Queens don't rule in Europe anymore.
Anyway, does that mean Europeans are going to tear down all statues and rename stuffs named after past Kings since they are terrorists?
There'll be a protracted period of asymmetric warfare whatever the result,
Depends on how good Assad is in wiping the slate clean.
but a democratic solution would face a shorter period of the aforementioned.
Ohh yeah, we see that shorter period of insurgency very well in Iraq, Libya and Afganistan even after establishing democratic goverments. Do you even think about anything you say?
Let me tell you something. Islamists do not fight for democracy. They are fighting for an Islamist theocratic state.T hey are gonna keep fighting until they get it. Islamists are not South Koreans, they fight for God, not for earthly affaires.[/QUOTE]
