See ya, chemical weapons!

This weekend I read an article titled “Syria 'can meet' chemical weapons deadline” which was written and published by Aljazeera and agencies. This article was last updated on April 4, 2014 on http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middleeast/2014/04/syria-can-meet-chemical-weapons-deadline-201444134226938708.html. Syria faces an April 27^th deadline to remove all of its chemical weapons. However, Syrian transfers have been suspended for “security reasons” and the Syrian government has said that they will proceed in a few days. The 72 containers of chemical weapons added to the amount of chemical weapons that have already been removed from Syria make up 90% of the county’s chemical weapon supply. The chemical weapons are scheduled to be destroyed on June 30 of this year. The United Nation’s order to remove the chemical weapons from Syria began after President Bashar-Al-Assad launched a chemical weapons attack on the rebel army in Syria.

This news about Syrian chemical weapon removal progress is tiresome and yet, at the same time, uplifting. It’s good to know that, after this removal process, we will no longer have to worry about Syria practicing chemical warfare. This removal process will also level the playing field for the rebel army in Syria.

When everyone in the United States of America is drinking lemonade and swimming in the pool, the Syrian chemical weapons will all be disposed of. The rebel army will charge into the city of Damascus with a flag with the word “freedom” written across it and the song “wave your flag” by K’naan starts playing. Then, you see Bashar-Al-Assad marched off the battlefield in chains with a gun to his head. A United States helicopter has come to pick him up and bring him to a cell where he will be put on death row. Finally, President Barrack Obama will step out of the helicopter and congratulate every member of the rebel army bringing iced tea and sandwiches for everybody. Everywhere in Syria there would be peace.

That would be amazing if that happened, but that’s unrealistic. The Syrian rebels probably wouldn’t have a boom box, stereo, or even an I-pod in war zone so they couldn’t play “wave your flag”. The rebels don’t have enough people or weapons to storm Damascus like that. Bashar-Al-Assad would be out running political errands and if Barrack Obama was present when the rebel army braved Damascus,Vladimir Putin might just have to start World War Three. Also, a myriad of people in the rebel army have committed human rights and war crimes. However, if you believe that scenario could happen, then feel free to show your support.
