Official comments omit explaining who bears full responsibility. Washington planned war on Syria years ago. It's been raging since early last year.

No-fly zone advocates know establishing it declares war. Installing Patriot missiles on the Turkish/Syrian border combined with recognizing Syria's illegitimate opposition perhaps is planned pretext to launch it.

Syrian chemical weapons again made headlines. Contrived US intelligence reports claim Assad may be readying them for use. On Monday, Obama said:

"Today I want to make it absolutely clear to Assad and those under his command: The world is watching. The use of chemical weapons is and would be totally unacceptable."

"And if you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons, there will be consequences and you will be held accountable."

Last summer, Syrian officials said they'll never be used internally. In self-defense if NATO attacks, anything is possible. Washington uses chemical, biological and nuclear weapons freely. So does Israel. Media scoundrels say nothing.

They prefer headlines calling naked aggression humanitarian intervention.

On December 3, The Atlantic contributor Jeffrey Goldberg headlined "Israel Asked Jordan for Approval to Bomb Syrian WMD Sites," saying:

Why ask Jordan? Only Washington's approval is needed. At issue is some chemical sites are close to Jordan's border. Syrians might also suspect Jordanian involvement if Israel attacks.
