“Carney has another vacuous justification: ‘…allowing the use of chemical weapons on a significant scale to take place without a response would represent a significant challenge or threat to the United States’ security interests.’ This is more than empty. It’s crazy. Syria is absolutely rent by a horrible civil war. There is no way that it represents a challenge to the security interests of the U.S., much less a significant challenge. The U.S. government is itself endangering peace and risking a wider war if it attacks Syria. This lowers the security of Americans. I’ve located 3 elaborations of what these supposed security interests might be.”
