Message from a Syrian... Where was morality hiding when almost 200,000 Syrians have been butchered by the regime directly or indirectly, when one million children were displaced, when millions do not have the bare necessaries and are living like refugees, when thousands are made disabled, when countless towns, cities and villages were destroyed? Shall I go on? Where was morality hiding, or was it blindfolded or has it suffered a chemical attack; where was this inimitable lofty noble morality? Some are advocating that they are morally bound not to interfere in a civil war. Is this a civil war? Assad unleashed warplanes, helicopter gunships, ballistic missiles, cluster bombs, white phosphorous bombs, TNT-filled barrel bombs and surface-to-surface missiles, including Scud missiles, not to mention hunger, imprisonment, rape and torture against his people, ending with chemical warfare, yet the world watched indifferently with its morality intact. Please drop the word civil from civil war. This is a war against children, women and the vulnerable. This is a naked, savage, ruthless war against those who are weaker, a war that is spawning and attracting all the evils and all the evil men and the criminals of the world. Please do not go moral on us. Please do not preach and delve into the mazes and murkiness of moral futility. therepublicgs.net/2013/08/31/to-strike-not-to-strike-or-how-to-strike/
