The Syrian dictatorship had clearly broken every agreement about chemical warfare and was using a vicious chemical weapon against civilians – including women and children.

In using these chemical weapons the Syrian military was violating a United Nations resolution and making a mockery of Russian assurances that the dictator Assad would refrain from using his chemical stockpiles.

Was Putin mad because Syria was an ally? Or was Putin just acting mad for the neocons? Or was Putin mad because he wanted to try and handle the Syria chemical attack situation?
