“It is very, very difficult for Obama to mount a case for warring on Syria on the grounds of defense or national security, that worn out appeal. His Secretary of State, John Kerry, is trying to wave the bloody flag of chemical warfare in its stead. Obama will continue to press the buttons of ‘deterrence’ and ‘weapons of mass destruction’ in order to divert attention away from the simple fact that attacking Syria is not an act of national defense. And not being an act of national defense, it is an act of aggression.”
