How many of you are ready to lose our sovereignty and open us to attack?

Attacking Syria, a sovereign nation, will cause us to lose our sovereignty.
Other nations that are allies of Syria will be IN THE RIGHT to attack us.

Syria has attacked neither us nor our allies nor threatened to.
Your thoughts?

Some seem confused:
How do you lose sovereignty?

1. Invading a neighboring country
2. Violating the Genocide Convention
3. Harboring terrorists
4. Violating the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty

None of which Syria has done.
Chemical weapons were used WITHIN it's borders - go look up the laws regarding it's outlawing in WAR against another nation.

We would become the aggressors. We would lose our sovereignty.

I would agree that attacking Syria would be a dumb thing to do. What one nation does with in there own boarders is none of our Business . as long as it's not a threat to the U.S. or our citizens we should stay out of it. WE ARE NOT THE WORLDS POLICE !!!

The world outlawed Chemical weapons after WWI.
Syria used chemical weapons.
That needs to be punished. You have to enforce the laws or they don't mean anything.

That's why we will attack.
Syria's "allies" won't be doing anything. They want them slapped down for the same reason.

And you can't lose your sovereignty by attacking another country. Where did that goofy idea come from?
