Syria War: Anger After Russia Vetoes Resolution At Un
http:// www.bbc .co.uk/ news/wo rld-eur ope-395 85071
If anybody still thinks that Russia is a benign force in the world, they can now see, quite clearly, how Putin supports his friend, Assad the Butcher. This is now the 8th time that they have vetoed resolutions at the UN.

Any enquiry would take months and in those months, Russia would continue to prop up the regime of the dictator, Assad.
The only reason that Assad has stopped using chemical weapons on his own people is because Trump has threatened to destroy his capability to do so again.
I have made his comment before, but I will do it again::::I am far from being a supporter of Trump, but on this issue, he has acted quickly and decisively. While the UN faffs about in New York, he actually did something useful....something that should have been done years ago.
Russia should be held to account here, and explain why it is propping up Assad the Butcher. Its obvious to everybody why it is doing that of course....in order to get a warm-water Port in the Med.

Some people cannot get it into their heads that 'anti Russian sentiment' is based on Russia's actions. If you doubt they a UN sponsored investigation, which would involve the surrender of Syrian flight logs, inspection of premises with publication of all or any the evidence, would be 'biased' then that is up to you. Anyway, isn't it Syria that is in the dock here over the use of chemical weapons, not Russia :-)
I can see how an enquiry might establish the facts, but with the rest of the International community already believing the existing evidence and deduction is sufficient, I can't help thinking they can't all simply be jumping to conclusions. And how long does an enquiry take, and how likely is it to uncover more evidence, especially since any evidence will be rapidly being removed as we debate ? On balance it looks like a delaying tactic to me, but we'll see how it goes.
