wearing Parda and implementing SHERIA law can protect a muslim from sarin gas.... Ask all the muslims in UK to go to Syria and have a very very happy life with all the LAWS...

Not too sure if Prada will stop Sarin gas, but this mess in Syria is only gonna get worse before it gets better.

They are basically admitting that the "rebel" side (the side they are supporting) has used chemical weapons. The evidence linking the Syrian government are flimsy. And why no mention of the UN's del Ponte, she clearly pointed the finger at the "rebels".
Anyway, the Syrian government is clearly winning this fight. They have no reason to resort to using such weapons. Especially with US/Europe, who are itching for a war, talking about "red lines". Assad would be extremely stupid to use chemical weapons, and it is clear that the "rebel" side wants to frame Assad.

The US/Europe are definitely NOT itching for a war. They have strained so hard not to intervene, but they feel a very strong moral obligation to go in and somehow protect the people, of whatever ethnic or religious background.
If Russia, Iran, China would help to shut down this ferocious civil war, great, and if it can be done with no military involvement by anyone, even better.

This is not a civil war. It is an attempted regime change, openly supported by countries like Saudi Arabia (who clearly are not interested in democracy and human rights) and covertly supported by the US, Israel, Britain, France. They are responsible for these killings, not Syria, Russia, China, and Iran.
People like McCain and Graham have for some time been begging for a no-fly zone and arming the "rebels". They want to repeat what they did in Libya.

Assad is a war criminal, plain and simple. His time is coming. He demands proof, but will not allow the means to do it, despite this revelation doing so.
