The answer is Sarin gas.



And the question is…

"What kind of bullshit excuse can we use to get into a war with half of the Middle East?"


Really, people. Are our leaders so dumb that they don't know that they're siding with the Sunnis against the Shia?

Or is it a good old-fashioned Divide & Conquer tactic intended to split the Islamic world & make the Middle East into a rubble pile that Israel can walk into & take over?
