Plausibility of Syria strike / Sparking WWIII ?

[Mike Christ]

With just a few battleships and people inside U.S. intelligence leaking their positions it might not be wise to strike.

The question is: Can America afford attacking Syria with more than that?

Drones are relatively inexpensive.
They already blew a lot of money feeding rebels and their spies.
You don't just walk away.

What it boils down to is, when do America's lenders cut them off?  America doesn't have squat anymore, and they won't ever have it again until they literally collapse and start society over again.  America's entire military is borrowed from people who expect them to repay them someday, or perhaps are knowingly fueling America until they destroy themselves--anyway, America hasn't been able to afford any war for quite some time, and the more wars they get into, the more debt they accrue, the faster their demise, so of course it's in the interest of other nations to continue fueling America's war games.

So, yes, America can always 'afford' more wars, until other nations agree that it's time to pull the rug from under them, and then it's game over.  If America won't use more of its military against Syria, it's because they're saving it for bigger fish, and so Syria is just a distraction at that point.  But remember all those nuke-carrying submarines America has across the globe in unknown spots of the ocean; wonder if they'll use those in a last-ditch effort to retain control once the rug is pulled, or if that's one reason why the rug hasn't been by now.

Make love, not war.

There is one point that I agree with. The use of chemical weapons in warfare can't go unpunished.

That being said further investigation needs to be done by a reliable third party with absolute honesty and openness to the public.

Another war is just what the US economy needs.

Even the missiles cost way too much money.

Well how the Russians are playing it they should just borrow a page from the US playbook and call it a UN crisis of human rights, against the government of Syria since the UN is not going to move on this issue for now.

If everyone pulls the rug, they will not get any of their money back.
Nukes are a good point too.

Not to mention almost every world currency is tied at the hip with USD...

Where exactly will you find this mythical entity?

I believe they currently realize they're never getting their money back; America, with its mighty army, has no intention of pulling out of debt.  I believe this is the point; I believe those other nations did this intentionally.

Probably will be a catalyst for a Russian & Chinese invasion/liberation of the US if this does happen, along with a few targeted drone strikes on places like the Westboro Baptist Church.

The silver lining.

I would try my best to do it if you gave me 25,000 BTC!

Of course for that kind of money you could hire a whole team of professionals, which unlike me have actual experience and journalism degrees....

First of all there is no chemical weapons used. Turkish government (The puppet of the USA) want to attack Syria but still waiting order from Obama.
We as Turkish people don't want to have war with any country.
