Lesson for our legislators in that UK vote on Syria

Sep 03, 2013

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Observer - BRITISH Prime Minister David Cameron is fighting for his political life and the legitimacy of his Tory party after Conservative members crossed the dreaded political divide and joined with the Opposition Labour party in voting no to Cameron's plan of participating with the United States in a military strike on Syria. The planned military action is in response to the use of chemical weapons, allegedly by the Syrian Government, against civilians in what has become a brutal and bloody civil war in that country. This newspaper places on record its total abhorrence of the use of chemical weapons in any conflict, be it domestic or otherwise. We shun the repugnant notion that in any war, which seems to be the bane of mankind, the use of chemical weapons can be justified in any way, shape or form.
