‘Bloody massacres’: Syria appeals to UN after French & US airstrikes ‘kill over 140

[Arrashi]

I suppose that means Nice was also nothing to wriite home about.

Nice isn't a war zone.

[W1sp]

I heard all about how this so called tennisace when I first started reading these forums and I am slowly beginning to understand what all the hype is about

OT: Not really a uprising just your every day bombings nothing new. And no no1 will be held accountable.

[ABEEnr2]

They wont do anything, since it didnt happen in US or Europe.

[IIamaKing]

Collateral Damage. Its a cruel bitch of war, but thats that. 140 is nothing really.

[Hiricine]

The women and children civilians living near Isis targets are the future Isis mothers and recruits who will give birth to the next generation of fighters. The idea that not having a gun makes you a civilian is silly. We grant that the wives of successful men are partly responsible for their success when it comes to divorce court, why do we except families from the atrocities their loved ones commit with their assent?

Just like the deaths from terrorist attacks! 140 civilian deaths has no strategic importance. Just like deaths in Nice or Paris

...

right?

[Ninjavitis]

I wonder why Tennisace never made a thread about : http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/...ticle27442134/?

Probably because it doesn't fit his USA bashing narrative.

Pretty sure something similar is being argued by someone on the other side about Nice.

So you are in favour of murdering innocent women and children?

[GennGreymane]

This thread is too edgy for me.

I am in sooo much pain! the edges... so many....oowwwwwww

[JohnBrown1917]

Nice isn't a war zone.

That makes it all okay.

Unless ofcourse Russia had done it.

[Torched]

I don't care at all, it's been going on so long that all the care has long since gone.

Or MH17, but that one is only bad because the U.S was not involved.

Not until Syria takes accountability for all the "freedom fighters" they sent to help the opposition in Iraq during the initial invasion while killing thousands of our troops.

Stay in your lane Tennisace. Topics about actual reality don't suit you.

If you didn't want thousands of your troops killed you shouldn't have invaded Iraq.

The troops the US invaded a foreign country with? If another country invaded the US and we helped our neighbor would we deserve this?

[Mihalik]

Honestly? War is not pretty and it will never not be. Maybe Syria could have kept their own country under control and this would never happen.

It was under control until we decided that they needed "Democracy".

[Xires]

The other megathreads of Russia bombed X and Y, begs to differ. But i guess WhatAboutIsm only applies to a thread when the US is put on the pedestal, exercising the US trademark: Collateral damage.

Thousands of civilians used to be killed in one night of fire bombing in WW2. It was done to destroy the Nazi war machine. Sometimes civilians die in war and the fact that it still happens sucks (it doesn't happen anywhere near as the scale as it used to just 70 years ago) but intel can be faulty. Also you need to remember that these kinds of people use civilians as human shields.

So if they retaliate in the US or France, its all fair?

No because civilians are their INTENDED target. Big difference. Also death and destruction is common in those area's. Be it under the ironfist of a ruthless dictator or a civil war. France is not a warzone because France is civilized.

INTENTIONS kids. Intentions matter! I'm pretty sure they will understand our intentions.
Death and destruction was not common in Syria. Or Iraq. Not the way it is now.
Oh but sorry who am I kidding hold on:
"They were fucked up already"... Was I a good patriot?

Wait if your country falls under control of crazy people the ones you blame are the citizens themselves even though they're also victims of the same crazy people?
