Russia warns US that military action in Syria

In this article it was reported that Russia has warned "western powers" (the USA cough cough) that any military action in Syria without a UN mandate would constitute a violation of international law.  Again we have Russia with its decades long record of human rights violations, schooling the US on what is right and what is wrong.  Unfortunately, Russia is completely correct in this matter.

I say unfortunately only because the lawless, above the law leadership of the US has basically taken the Nixonian stance of "when the President does it, that means that it is not illegal" to the next step.  Obama now believes that whatever the president says is lawful and thus the law of the land.  Dictator Obama routinely goes around Congress on a variety of fronts today in a completely unconstitutional, fascist, and tyrannical manner in order to push his radical left wing agenda.

With the collapsing global economy, the risk of another world war is rising rapidly.  Why does this happen??  Simply in order to distract the people from the mess we are in.  If you can fool all the people into fake patriotism (as opposed to the honest, constitutional loving kind) and ridiculous nationalism then you can get them to agree to send their children to die in a foreign land.  It has worked time and again in human history so we are genetically predisposed to falling for that con, it would seem.

In past world wars the US always had the moral high ground.  But if Obama and his warmongers go into Syria without U.N. approval then Russia and its allies will have the moral high ground to oppose US/western intervention.  What if Russia and China both stand up to the US on this matter and challenge our leadership into yet another middle eastern conflict?  Will the US reconsider its warmongering ways or will arrogant Obama say "the US is in charge of the world, whatever we say is global law, we will do what we want when the international laws disallow our agenda".

This is a serious risk IMO.  He who has the gold makes the rules and we will find out soon enough that a lot of gold has been moving eastward.  The real power of gold is not understood by most people and so I will just lay it out bluntly.  The real historical power of gold is that it has the ability to fund wars when the fiat currency of a nation cannot.

Let's say Russia and China tell the US to back down and Obama is too ignorant and arrogant to reconsider Syrian military intervention.  All the eastern powers have to do is to back their currencies with their gold stashes and to challenge the US to do the same.  If the US cannot put up then the US will have to shut up.  The dollar would plummet if the US could not match their move to back dollars in gold.  If the US tries to wage war under these circumstances, it would, like Rome of old, go bankrupt.  It would fail to be able to pay its military, just like Rome.

Obama better think long and hard before getting into an internationally illegal scuffle.  The US is just too weak right now to take that hit.  Of course, if you are Obama and you have everyone calling you a lame duck president, what do you personally have to lose?  His children will never be sent to some foreign killing field to be turned into hamburger for no good reason.  All of you who voted for Obama and who still support him, it is time to wake up.  This guy is a danger to us all.
