You can keep dodging that point all you want, but you know it is the truth. High ranking US officials ordered a chemical attack on Fallujah and the people who ordered this attack were never prosecuted. If the US won't prosecute people in our own country who used chemical weapons then we have no moral authority to bomb another country on the basis that they used chemical weapons.

No, you're dismissing it by trying to make a false equivalency. ProSense Sep 2013 #20

There is no false equivalency, it is as wrong for the US to use chemical weapons as it is for Syria Bjorn Against Sep 2013 #21
