we have the united arab emirates and saudi arabia committed to this.e end of bashar. they have pledged money, they have pledged support and they want to see the destruction of the mafia that rules syria. other countries, when you think about it, is completely reprehensible. the egyptians, who have had their own revolution for liberty, are now siding with bashar al assad against the rebellion in syria. and then above and beyond that, have you the iraqis, iraqis whose liberty is owed to an american war. they want to see an american intervention in syria, that would deliver some deliverance, some -- we're not going to go into a big war in syria. our help could alter the balance of power on the ground without a major effort on our part. that's the hope at least. >> if i may, what if it doesn't alter the balance of power, then what? there will be calls. there have already been calls for the united states to intervene more decisively on the side of the assad opposition. who is that exactly? it's no wonder the american people after having been entangled in th

secretary of state john kerry met with officials from egypt and the united arab emirates to drum up support for the resolution. russia and china are expected to oppose it. u.s. leaders accuse forces loyal to assad of carrying out a poison gas attack last month in the suburbs of damascus. hundreds of people died. if president blames rebels trying to overthrow his government but he admitted in an interview his country has been stockpiling chemical weapons for years. >> translator: syria has built chemical weapons since decades ago. it's no surprise they are large in amount. >> syria is said to possess about 1,000 tons of the weapons but assad didn't give a precise number. inspectors with the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons will check the stockpile in november as part of the u.s./russia agreement. assad said his government will guarantee the safety of the inspectors. >>> chemical weapons aren't the only threat to stability in syria. militants affiliated with al qaeda are exploiting the turmoil and attacking both government and opposition forces. islamic militants and oppos

and so they've entered a partnership with kuwait and the united arab emirates. well, in this case, it's the emirates, not kuwait. but here, german-foreign-policy.com made this statement, "if a german dominated european solution cannot be accomplished, berlin will do without europe and go it alone." now, that shows a lot of power! a lot of power in this country already! and they're building up these alliances in the middle east to pull these countries away from iran and the direction that iran is going, so you can see why iran and europe or germany are going to clash. it's already building toward that, and how could we possibly know these things are going to happen, unless we understood bible prophecy and know exactly what god said would happen! this is just amazing that all of this is happening, and people know so little about it. then it goes on to talk about qatar, whichever way you want to pronounce that, how they're investing, and other arabs are investing in the german economy, and they really have some very close ties. so germany has close ties with what a
