And no one does a thing to stop it. Where is Nato and what are they doing?

This is a chess game between Russia and the West and Western media, as usual, is lying shamelessly.

What can you do though when Assad has a big Russian bear in his corner.Taking out Assad means war with Russia.The time to do it was 2012 but parliament voted against it.

There's a video trending at the moment about a pregnant woman caught up in the atrocities in Syria. Because she's so badly injured the doctors decide, with the little facilities they have, to perform a caesarian on her. She dies whilst on the operating table and they remove the dead baby. They try to resuscitate him but all seems hopeless until one doctor notices a small movement. Considering her injuries, its incredible this baby lived. He was like a little drop of hope amongst all the devastation.

Fast forward 17 years and he'll be having the **** kicked out of him on an English street corner for daring to be an asylum seeker in "Great" Bwitain.

Inflammatory speculation or what!

I know let's just invite every person in the world suffering from war, persecution and starvation (where do we stop) to Britain until many are dipping their toes in the North Sea whilst tying to turn over in bed at night.

That's a bit unfair to tar a whole nation on the actions of one group who were out to pick a fight armed with knives, they weren't going to bible class, the fund for the victim is now at 43,000, I can't recall how many millions were raised for the Sudan in one week but it was a lot, you need to start seeing the good in people and not constantly focus on the bad otherwise you will get very bitter

If it's going to properly reflect recent events, it will be by a group of black kids who've never read the Daily Mail.

listening to some points on the internet.Some questions that were raised.
Who benefits from this chemical attack?
Assad is winning in Syria.He's not stupid.He knows the consequences for throwing chemical weapons around.He knows he will be attacked by the US.
Why would he kill a hundred civilians with chemical weapons?What would he gain?
He's already winning.All it would do is harm him.
Also,Why was this US response so quick before any proper investigation could be conducted?
And...
Who does benefit from this?

I don't know the answers but interesting questions to think about.

Maybe Assad is just stupid and Trump is reacting emotionally.Hillary also backed this though.

Very gradually, the man behind the curtain is being revealed. I really believe that. I sometimes wonder what an "aware" world actually looks like, though... I frequently say, once you've looked into the abyss you can't ever look away. "I should have taken the BLUE pill" etc.

And what ones do you think we had a hand in? What about the millions we have already taken in? Is there no limit for you? Should the Brits and the their families have no say in their future? The list goes on.

British Lives Matter too. Maybe we need to start calling ourselves BLM too.

We have taken in less than 150,000. Total.

You need to brillo up on your facts tbh. "the millions" we have taken in. Honest to God. No wonder you're terrified if you actually believe this.
