The hypocrisy over Syria and chemical weapons is unreal

The world –wide hypocrisy over the use of chemical and biological weapons reached farcical levels this week as Russia, who are complaining that the United Kingdom will not give them access to investigate the Salisbury nerve gas attack, have, at the same time, through their vote on the United Nations Security Council, vetoed an independent investigation of the chemical attacks in Syria? The British Prime Minister raised an eyebrow or two yesterday by saying that ‘we need to see more evidence of the Syrian attacks’ to commit to military action in Syria to defeat chemical weapons attacks on women and children. But its flaming obvious they are using chemical weapons. As we saw in 2013 the British government have no intention of having another free vote as the opposition in Labour could bring them down on it once gain. Sadly because it’s brown Muslim children dying and we have no oil interests in Syria the west simply doesn’t care. It now becomes game of delay and worded test to avoid reacting to chemical attacks that will soon become normalised because we didn’t act.
