W460

France has issued an international arrest warrant for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, accused of complicity in crimes against humanity over chemical attacks in 2013, a judicial source and plaintiffs in the case said Wednesday.

The judicial source told AFP that Assad was also suspected of complicity in war crimes for the attacks, blamed by the opposition on the regime, that killed more than 1,400 people near Damascus in August 2013.

Sure thing , but your Hezbollah is no cure; you don’t fight metastatic cancer by injecting more cancerous cells.

Remember that your party of God has been targeting journalists exactly like the Zionists do!

France has requested Lebanon's elite Presidential Security Service to serve the warrant, with a promise of an extra dollop of whipped cream when the PSS next visits one of France's floating pleasure palaces.
