Theres no innocent. If they don't want to be blown up then they should over throw their government. If not then they reap what they sew
Oh, I see! So we all need to have governments that are subservient to Israel and the US then or suffer the consequences?

Innocent civilians or armed terrorists conducting special forces like operations of killing government troops and sabotaging crucial structures of the society? these are not innocent civilians but 'prep ups' by foreign government intelligence agencies with financial and arms support. these agents of sabotage can go out and protest peacefully as much as they want. But if they cause disturbance and chaos, then they will be dealt with. If they want government or social reforms then they should take care to not stress the government with additional critical challenges. Reforms and changes do not and cannot occur when the country is being destabilized by foreign agents and criminals.

Ok please can you kindly explain to me what happened in Libya? As far as I'm aware, ghadaffi ordered the deaths and rapes of it's civilians, the cilia's wanted reform, got shot at so took arms. Us and the French spoke to the rebels and said we'll help if we get x amount of oil so the rebels obliged.

President Barrack Obama:

Since China buys oil from Iran and does business with the Iranian Central Bank.......Barrack Obama just froze China's money in American Banks.
Essentially China comes out fighting to stay alive.....or they're dead. Their money abroad has just been frozen.

So it is not OK for the Syrian government to kill its own people but OK for the US to murder many times more in a miltary intervention?
Are you the officially designated murderers of the world? Guess you think so.

US President Barack Obama has signed into law a major defence bill including tough new sanctions against Iran.
The law bans foreign firms from doing business with Iran's central bank.
