The Nuremberg Tribunals conducted after WWII settled the issue as to what is a war crime. The first trial was in regards to unprovoked attacks on sovereign countries. That became U.S. law as well as international law. Those laws still stand, regardless as to what any President past or present claims.

I wonder if he would be granted diplomatic immunity. The so called charges against him are suspect at best. -

Congressman Alan Grayson speaks out against any unilateral attack on Syria. Grayson states that the military industrial complex wants this. -

Assad is a highly educated doctor and therefor would not use chemical weapons? Given that he is a doctor or is highly intelligent has no relevance.There have been many highly educated persons in the past that have been responsible for such atrocities and worse. -

'Doctors Without Borders' were the first to report on the use of chemical weapons. Victims showed symptoms of chemical weapons. http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2013/08/24/doctors_without_borders_reports_on_a_possible_use_of_chemical_weapons_in.html -

Aljazeera is stating that Thursday the U.S. will strike against Syria. Where in the hell are the diplomatic solutions and if Assad has been committing war crimes, then put him in the Hague for trial. -
Belief and faith have nothing to do with the shape of the earth. Science can prove the shape by empirical research which is based on observation/measurement. By foisting such absurd ideologies on persons who may not be well educated, you are responsible for spreading lies and misinformation which is no different than the papal anthropocentric lies during the time of Galileo. Have you ever taken a science course or been to college? Are you home schooled?
-
This argument is not flexible vs. inflexible. I am a creative thinker but there are some subjects that serve no purpose to debate or even believe in. Flat earth belief systems are nonsensical!
-
The shape of the earth is a given and yet some want it to imagine it to be different in reality. Go ahead and waste your time with fanciful illusions! You are wrong and science is correct.

The church claimed erroneously that the earth was the center of the universe. Anyone questioning was subject to the inquisition. The views expressed in the OP are nothing but anthropocentric. http://law2.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/galileo/galileoaccount.html http://physics.ucr.edu/~wudka/Physics7/Notes_www/node52.html

For those true believers that claim to create their own reality, which is what the OP is in regards to, then the disaster in Fukushima is only based on perception/belief systems. To follow, the increase in thyroid cancer is just a perception and has nothing to do with science or reality. I could create many absurd examples but anyone can make absurd statements not based on reality. The OP is nothing new and is just a continuation of the mindset of the inquisitors of years past.

Trolls for certain and persons who have little ability/training to think critically. This is the state of the educational system here in the U.S.
-
This is not about freedom of expanded thinking or opening up minds to some other, what if possibility. To be frank, it makes persons that engage in this wishful thinking look foolish.
-
The shape of the earth is settled science and this little diversion into la la land serves no purpose except to entertain ones who have no grounding in science. There are differences between delusional belief systems and rational science. This discussion falls into the former category.

There is no maximum legal use for telescope optics. Where are these delusional posts coming from? The shape of the earth and the moon are settled science.

Just watched this interview which reveals where the major problems are. Greed corruption and media shills! -
If you fail to understand the archetype of Cupid, then how are you concluding that 'Cupid is a retard'? Just does not follow.
