Putin says Syrian Chemical Attack "Sly and ingenious provocation by rebels"
Russia believes that Syrian rebels were behind the chemical
attack. This statement was made by President Vladimir Putin. Countries
including the US, Britain, and France all believe that this attack was in fact
done by Syrian military. Russia strongly disagrees with the United State’s
plans to attack Syria, with the reason being that it would “violate basic
principles of international law and undermine the U.N. role.”
The reason that I chose this to go with my blog theme of
crime is because Syrian chemical’s attack is a crime. Doing something that can
potentially harm a whole population, intentionally, is dangerous and deserves
criminal charges. What the Syrian rebels did was a form of attack and although
I am not sure if the United States should take action and get involved, I do
believe that action should be taken to prevent things of this nature from
happening again. If the roles were reversed in United State’s rebels were doing
chemical attacks on civilians, I too would want something to be done. I believe
that if we ignore crimes such as this one that can cause so much harm, they
will continue to happen. I am not sure of the lesson that should be taught in
this case, but I do hope that some light is shed on this particular issue. It
is becoming quite popular globally.
