Attack in syria, area of atrocity is in lockdown and encircled by syrian army, making it completely inaccessible to outside world. president putin, russia and iran are responsible for backing animal assad. big price. its interesting, karl, there has not been outside confirmation that this was a poison attack. its interesting that, one, the president is saying it and two, not only condemning it but also in maybe the strongest terms ive ever heard, condemning president putins support for assad. >>...
