I was shocked when I went on YouTube and watched the mortifying videos of Syrian children dying, suffering, foaming at the mouth, and howling in pain as they laid there taking their last breathes. While the innocent continue to die, Obama continues to say the same things he's said for the last several weeks as the civil war gets bloodier, and as President Bashar al-Assad breaks international laws with the use of chemical weapons. Watching these videos with my own two eyes has given the understanding that if we don't strike and if the Syrian government refuses to relinquish their weapons, cold bodies will continue to be stacked as the US does nothing except watch it happen. Obama says that the Russian intiative "has the potential to remove the threat of chemical weapons without the use of force." Well I for one don't give a fuck about the "potential" of it removing them, I want them removed and so should every other citizen of the world. Obama has made several moral cases for invading Syria and yet sits there and asks congress to hold off voting on the issue until a non forceful plan is drawn up. This article brings up a good point by stating that Obama has yet to answer three questions that should be answered immediately. Obama, how long is he willing to wait for congress? Obama, how do we know that Russian's plan is credible? Obama, what are we going to do if it isn't credible? I for one want these questions to be answered immediately, and want children to stop being massacred not tomorrow, not next week, NOW. Obama needs to step up to the plate and start acting like the president of the United States or else people should start blaming him for not using the strongest military in the world to stop the bloodshed of innocent human beings.
