Title: Sign this petition if you have seen the massacre of men woman and children Syria
Post by: Jacqui Harvey on August 22, 2013, 10:18:54 AM

Please sign this petition.   I hope you have seen all the dead people including all the poor children killed in Syria.  This has to stop..  The inspectors must be allowed to go in.

To be honest Jacqui.. Why would they take any notice of a petition? These are politicians and insane people we are talking about here.  >:( I know that there are good intentions behind this but it won't make any difference...They are aiming for 15.000 signatures which is a drop in the ocean...

In the past there have petitions for wills, sgk, animals and whatever.
Personally I don't think that those petitions made any difference.
But the person who signed the petitions probably felt that he/she was able to do "something".

There isn't much we can do about the atrocities that are happening in Syria but we can at least show our feelings about it.
Hundreds of children have died because of the chemicals used.
When will the world open its eyes?!?

So, it has been reliably determined that the pictures are fact, has it ??

I would like to think they where not true.  However, it's hard to show children suffering who are just actors. The pictures last night where dreadful and the bodies in the papers where appalling.
I don't know if a petition will do any good, but it makes me feel I have done a little something to show my utter disgust at what has happened to these poor people and their totally innocent children.  >:( :(

I've signed it
The sight of those poor innocent children is heartbreaking, and of course a petition isn't going to help, but what else can we do other than show our support for these people ?

Sure, pictures can be photoshopped but how about videos of young children dying, grasping their last breaths.
Do you also think that they are fake?
