U.S. Will Take Action In Syria Regardless of Support From Allies or U.N.Madison Ruppert The attack would be a response to alleged chemical weapons use. Despite the lack of published findings by the UN investigators, Western nations have been calling for a response to the alleged attack and one report claimed that U.S., Israeli and Jordanian commandos are already on the ground in Syria. Today the Syrian government called for an immediate UN investigation into three new alleged attacks, reportedly carried out by the rebels. Yet the United States rhetoric has become increasingly bellicose today, with the Associated Press reporting that the U.S. will simply ignore the backing or lack thereof of the UN and allied nations. Note: The Washington Post changed the AP story entirely. Here is the original version posted on another site. On Wednesday, Britain proposed a draft resolution that would authorize a military operation against Syria but that effort was stymied by the continued opposition of Russia. The Associated Press rightly notes that if the draft resolution was put to a vote, it would almost certainly be vetoed by Russia and China, which have blocked past attempts to sanction President Bashar Assads regime. Marie Harf, deputy spokeswoman for the State Department, said that the U.S. cannot be delayed in responding to the alleged attack by Russias opposition in the United Nations. Russia maintained that a military strike on Syria without the approval of the UN Security Council would be a crude violation of international law, something which doesnt seem to bother the U.S. In the United States, No War With Syria rallies are scheduled for Saturday, August 31 in cities across the United States. The movement in no way support the actions of the Assad regime, but we recognize that US intervention will instigate more violence and suffering in Syria, organizer Nick Bernabe said in a statement. As the U.S. is already hurting from a recession and perpetual wars, becoming involved in Syria will only create further destabilization in the Middle East and strip the people of the United States of desperately needed resources, he added. Opposition has also been voiced by former Congressman Dennis Kucinich, who said that a strike on Syrian President Bashar al-Assads forces would mean the U.S. was supporting al-Qaeda.
