In an interview with The Associated Press in Damascus Monday, Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Mikdad said strikes against Syria would trigger “chaos” and threaten worldwide peace and security.
He said a U.N. team in Damascus currently investigating the alleged use of chemical weapons should be allowed to do its work, before the world makes any judgment.
The U.S. has said there is little doubt that Assad’s regime was responsible for the attack on Aug. 21 in the capital’s suburbs. The group Doctors Without Borders said 355 people were killed in an artillery barrage by regime forces Wednesday that included the use of toxic gas.
Exactly what Iraq said.
Please tell us how you will protect yourself against B-2 bombers and cruise missiles?
Assad its time to give up and stop the mass murder of your own people!
Go choose a sewer hole to hide like Saddam!
No, he can not defend his regime against American military. He couldn’t even defend it against Israeli one. But any intervention on behalf of muslim beasts who contest him for power will be a huge mistake!
