Sounds like a thug saying 'come at me bro'...
Russia has deployed a huge vessel to protect Syria from missiles....
Im so confused as to whats going on or what i think is right in this situation..every option sucks...its either Assad or Isis/Al Quaieda..
This is the type of shit Obama tried to avoid..i used to bitch about him for not doing enough in Syria...maybe i was wrong..just the amount of different actors in this situation....
Feels like this six year conflict has turned a new chapter..
Things are looking worse: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...-a7671631.html

This was fucking classic last night.
Today's episode of WTF With Marc Maron with Jeff Ross has an interesting perspective, from Ross, on Trump.
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST ON TOAST ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME WITH THIS SHIT?!
I'd be worried about dying of a brain aneurysm if I didn't think I'd be bombed in World War III first.
Spicy is a complete moron. He looked like a deer in headlight today. He tried to explain what he was trying to say the first time around and completely failed.
i think what spicey said, was "even Hitler didn't use chemical weapons!" another WTF moment from the WTF adminstation the same people that brought you our nicrowaves have cameras in them how can anyone believe a word from these thief's

Technically, he's correct, if you are talking semantics in terms of "weapons" like in Syria used as a form of chemical warfare in a civil war. Al-Assad has also been killing these people via A SHITLOAD of barrel bombs. He claims they are actually "terrorists." Sarin bombs are "weapons" because they are bombs.
The Nazi gas chambers and gas vans were extermination agents to quickly and cheaply exterminate people whom Hitler deemed unacceptable per his "Final Solution."In accordance with The Geneva Protocol of 1925, Nazi Germany refrained from the tactical use of chemical and biological weapons in war, possibly due to the personal experiences of Adolf Hitler as a sergeant in the Kaiser's army where he was gassed by British troops in 1918.
Stanley P. Lovell, Deputy Director for Research and Development of the Office of Strategic Services, reports in his book Of Spies and Stratagems that the Allies knew the Germans had quantities of Gas Blau available for use in the defense of the Atlantic Wall. The use of nerve gas on the Normandy beachhead would have seriously impeded the Allies and possibly caused the invasion to fail altogether. He submitted the question "Why was nerve gas not used in Normandy?" to be asked of Hermann Göring during his interrogation. Göring answered that the reason gas was not used had to do with horses. The Wehrmacht was dependent upon horse-drawn transport to move supplies to their combat units, and had never been able to devise a gas mask horses could tolerate; the versions they developed would not pass enough pure air to allow the horses to pull a cart. Thus, gas was of no use to the German Army under most conditions.
Hitler and the Nazis did not in fact use chemical "weapons" (e.g. bombs) against enemies in WWII, even though these weapons had been invented and used in WW I.
Hitler EXTERMINATED people, including their own citizens, and Nazis called the process "euthanasia."
As @Deepvoid said, Spicey just looks really fucking stupid every time he tries to explain or clarify anything; he's bumbling. This could have been handled more elegantly, for sure.A Nazi euphemism, "euthanasia" referred to the systematic killing of those Germans whom the Nazis deemed "unworthy of life" because of mental illness or physical disability.
After the June 1941 German invasion of the Soviet Union and Einsatzgruppe (mobile killing unit) mass shootings of civilians, the Nazis experimented with gas vans for mass killing. Gas vans were hermetically sealed trucks with engine exhaust diverted to the interior compartment. Use of gas vans began after Einsatzgruppe members complained of battle fatigue and mental anguish caused by shooting large numbers of women and children. Gassing also proved to be less costly. Einsatzgruppen (mobile killing units) gassed hundreds of thousands of people, mostly Jews, Roma (Gypsies), and mentally ill people.

I don't give a good goddamn about technicalities and semantics. To compare the killing of < 100 people by sarin gas as an unspeakable tragedy when directly compared to the mass slaughter of millions of people in gas chambers is fucking unreal.
He didn't compare it; he was trying to make al-Assad look WORSE than Nazis. But, the reason why Nazis didn't use chemical weapons wasn't because they were HUMANITARIANS, like "oh my God, chemical bombs, WE can't use THOSE" (which is what Spicer was implying), like the Nazis didn't want to break the rules.
The Nazis didn't use chemical weapons because it would kill their horses and they needed horses in battles to transport weapons. They tried making GAS MASKS FOR THE HORSES but they didn't work. So, his whole "the NAZIS didn't even use these bombs" was correct -- but his implication was that the Nazis were too nice to use these bombs, and THAT is ridiculous. The Nazis would have absolutely used "chemical weapons" had they figured out how to implement them without losing their horse transports.

Spicer thinks he's still on the school's playground and he and his buddies are arguing whose father is stronger. Only he's saying "the psycho dictator we bombed is meaner than that other psycho dictator".
Syria's leader is BIGLY mean.
That's a really good analogy, @marodi .

I saw Leviathant post this on FB and couldn't help but instantly comment on the patch on their uniform being the Year Zero cross gun patch, which may be the only thing keeping me sane about all of this shit, it feels too out there to be reality.

Your posted graphic said (Hitler didn't) "sink to the level of using chemical weapons" and that is the part that is technically (mostly) correct because of the word "weapon" as in "bomb" but Spicer ALSO said that Hitler "did not use gas on his own people" which is WAY incorrect, of course.
Edit: My husband said it best, I think: "Noooooo, do not EVER mention Hitler, EVER, noooooooooo." Spicer just shoots from the lip.

No, it came from an IDIOT who isn't a good press secretary or spokesperson who doesn't choose his words carefully or prepare in advance. The German Jews killed by Hitler were German citizens not "from" anywhere else, weren't immigrants. He's thinking LIKE an American who thinks everybody is an immigrant from somewhere "else."
