Even better, declare all religions as terrorist organisations & seize their funds. As an atheist, who was brought up in a very christian household, I take it as my right to use a sharp stick to poke holes in the supposed beliefs of the churches and their followers. I also quote Romans 16:1 to those that oppose women priests. |

Your lack of comprehension is terrifying! NOTICE the word "Declare". Where does it state "ALL religions are terrorist organisations"?Even better, declare all religions as terrorist organisations & seize their funds. |

To be fair to moomin's thread, wouldn't it be best to post on "God or Not" as this is off topic now.. |

If it was only the problem with Religion... Most of the parties fighting in Syria is not religous at all. And for instance al-Assad is an secular Alawite , and Alawism is not an admitted branch of Islam because all Islamic sects consider them non-muslims.

I wonder why the Syrian war is called the Syrian Civil War. "A civil war is a war between organized groups within the same state or country" Are Iran, Russia, Turkey, the US, UK, and France organized groups within Syria? Perhaps, but when so many nations are fighting each other it could easily be a war between nations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_involvement_in_the_Syrian_Civil_War |

Syria is only a part of a region-wide war. Which has lasted over 1000 years among different ethnic, religious and cultural groups.Very much like Europe where we have had region-wide wars for over 1000 years. I guess every 10 to 20 years or so an ethnic, religious or cultural war pop ups. Just in my lifetime there has been 4 war. At Cyprus in the 60's, Cyprus again in the 70's, the Balkans in the 90's and now Ukraine. (Have I missed one?) |

Aaaaaaaand this. I forgot to list this. That was the war in Cyprus 1974 that I mentioned. Actually I was in Greece in the archipelago when it happened. The big issue then was that both Greece and Turkey was and are members of NATO. When Turkey invaded all Americans left the island we stayed at next morning. Rather spooky really and when we got back to Athens some days later we found out that the Swedish embassy had evacuated all Swedish citizens from Greece. Almost all citizens:) Anyway. We weren't the only one so they arranged an extra plane. Northern Ireland. I didn't forgot but I was thinking if it was a region-wide conflict with several nations. Actually it was with IRA attacks both in Northern Ireland and England. Adding the war in Georgia 2008... The list of conflicts in Europe is rather "impressive". And so is the list of modern conflicts in the Middle East https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_modern_conflicts_in_the_Middle_East |

He is a Genius and from Karlstad so what could possibly go wrong:) It's not the first time both France and Britain are trying to "end" wars in the Middle East. Britain redraw the map after WWI I think resulting in that nations and ethnic groups got divided. And for instance Kurdistan (parts of Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran) disappeared from the map. France "owned" Lebanon and Syria. Well, this is the legacy. |

He turned London in a sh*thole city. Don't criticize him because if you do you're racist. Be politically correct. |

'''''''''''''Legal and moral''''''''''''I think the strike was morally correct. Legal? Not according to international laws. There is no evidence of who did the CW attack. Russia and Syria even say they there were none. Only today or tomorrow OPCW are allowed to invistigate the site. |

But if I throw a missile and hit the chemical weapons depots, then the toxic cloud expands and ends up trying more victims. This does not make sense. |

Hmm... I don't think that anybody has thought of that possibility. So now we have one more alleged gas attack at hand in Syria. Or at least three more places for OPWC to investigate. |
