The Cameron Trap: Obama’s Lesson from the British Vote

15. RE: your edited remarks.

The UN could determine who used the weapons--but that's not their charge.

They have said they won't investigate in that fashion and they didn't.

We now decisively know that chemical weapons were used, that much, they have already revealed (just now, a few moments ago, on the wires--no doubt Ban Ki Moon's brief to the key ambassadors revealed this fact earlier, as well).

We also know that the neighborhood where they were used in this latest incident was completely surrounded by Syrian military forces, was subjected to heavy shelling to break windows in the still (no wind) of the night, and this shelling was followed by gas delivered by rockets that the Syrian rebels:

a) Do not have in their arsenals;
b) Were not positioned to deliver (unless they were standing right smack dab in the middle of Maher al-Assad's RG units--and that's a bit unlikely, at best).

It just doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what happened.
