US Troops in Jordan Prepare for War with Syria, Syria Prepares Chemical Weapons
Like this post?

Some special forces troops being withdrawn from Iraq are now stationed in Jordan near the border of Syria. They are there to prepare for war with Syria.
Syria has been building up troops and tanks on the border with Jordan because Jordan has allowed opposition groups to smuggle arms into Syria to fight against the Assad regime. Syria has threatened to attack Jordan if it continues, which it no doubt has.
So the US is now directly facing off against Syria, as never before. With "boots on the ground", preparing the way for more US military involvement, it's only a matter of time before the fuse is lit and war breaks out.
Unfortunately Syria is a client state of Iran and Russia. The Russians have transferred state-of-the-art missiles to Syria that can penetrate our latest aircraft carriers. So in addition to the Russian warships stationed in Syrian waters, there is a real threat to the US battle group gathering there.
So with the US hamstrung in the Med, it has turned to its ally, Jordan to defend it against an attack from Syria, and as a possible launch pad for US forces to go attack Syria directly, in addition to all the other US bases surrounding Syria in Turkey, Iraq (soon to be vacated!) and Israel.
Are YOU ready for WWIII?

i have not been able to stop any of the 'police actions' during my life time, so i don't suppose it matters whether i am ready or not, Skip.
i cannot see a reason why, with these nations who constantly cause trouble, we do not simply nuke them until they are a parking lot, instead of sending our young people in to be maimed. seems clear to me-nuking is more efficient.
despite all the missiles that were destroyed during my time 'in', i believe that there are still plenty available to microwave russia, iran and syria.
nuke them til they glow!
or stop being the world's policeman, and let the bastards kill each other.

Nuclear weapons are not the answer.. Do you know what the modern nuclear weapon does?. This isnt 1945. These weapons will spew radiation into the air and ground. Making 90% the fossil fuels in the surrounding area unusable for decades to come..
Heavy radioactive fallout will spread across China some of Europe within a matter of days..
As for Iran and the stupid joos that want to launch an air strike against purposed Iranian nuclear facilities. This will be like opening up 20 Fukushima reactors.. DO IT!! DO IT NOW!! I dare you...

This post is a tad hyperbolic, . . . tho it will be interesting to see how this situation develops over the next few days.

Skip, I'm trying to search on-line to see where you found this news story. You usually post a link in your stories.
Is there a link?

According to first-hand accounts and reports provided to Boiling Frogs Post by several sources in Jordan, during the last few hours foreign military groups, estimated at hundreds of individuals, began to spread near the villages of the north-Jordan city of “Al-Mafraq”, which is adjacent to the Jordanian and Syrian border.

yeah nuclear bombs and nuclear warfare is just stupid. it destroys nature and leaves radiation there for years. it is just straight up destruction of earth.

Every war is a crime.
The only thing that could justify a military action would be to stop a country from being very repressive against its own population.
(which country has most people in prison worldwide?)
Or to stop a country that attacks repeatedly other countries
(which country starts most wars these times?)

yes, yes...sarcasm doesn't come across well on the net. i ceased to put 'sarcasm alert' on posts sometime back. many people don't understand what that means, anyway....english is not taught in schools nowadays.
and, in any event, so radiation spews across the globe....fukushima the whole place. over populate it; waste the resources. breed like rats, uncontrolled in quality and space and behaviour. the difference in 'nuked/not nuked' is in the velocity of change. of course, if the change is slow, we get to enjoy the show while it melts down, i suppose. entertaining, isn't it?
if nukes are not the answer...what, then, IS the answer? fuck it. that's the answer. c'mon talking heads...show us the bodies! we love horror films...
