Chuck Norris Explains Syria, Assad In Blog Post

Chuck Norris has something to say about Syria over on conservablog WorldNetDaily, and he wants you to listen up about Assad, weapons, and the conflict as it relates to the US, as news breaks that Syria will turn over weapons to Russia.

You may know Chuck Norris for his badass rep, and the action star’s Syria rant references this as he boasts that “[a]s a six-time world karate champion, I know something about fighting, winning and losing… [sometimes] one has to lose a battle to win a war, if only in appearance before certain others.”

Norris goes on to explain that he is of the belief that Syrian President Basher al-Assad used chemical weapons on his own people not to harm them necessarily, but perhaps to draw the US into a conflict in the tumultuous region.

Chuck writes:

“It might sound crazy to some that Assad would want the U.S. to bomb his own country, but, remember, he’s a dealer in lunacy and a high-risk roller autocrat. If Assad is willing to kill his own people, which clearly has been demonstrated for months and years, do we really think he cares if the U.S. joins his dirty work, especially when he can parade the innocent civilians murdered in U.S. bombing sprees?”

Norris further backs up his assertion, adding:

“The problem in this Syrian saga is that the White House isn’t examining the situation according to the power paradigms of dictators, particularly Assad’s. It is responding to it according to the typical model of Western imperialism, and Assad knows it. That’s why he continues to play to his theater and taunt Goliath by poking his chest with his words like, ‘Obama is weak.’ ”
