Damascus, Syria (BON) -- Syria will be challenged on its record for the suspicion of using chemical weapons. This was the warning from the White House on Tuesday, August 27, 2013 among growing signals that a Western military attack against Syria was about to happen. "There must be a response," were the words spoken by the White House spokesman Jay Carney. "We cannot allow this kind of violation of an international norm, with all the attendant grave consequences, to go unanswered." David Cameron, the British Prime Minister, had recalled parliamentary lawmakers to London from their summer holidays to come up with a lawful response to the crisis in Syria. France's President Francois Hollande said his government was prepared "to punish those who made the decision to gas these innocent people." In a speech given on the day, President Hollande added that "Everything leads us to believe that the regime carried out this abhorrent act". British authorities stated that their armed forces were taking measures to execute various unspecified operations. Chuck Hagel, the U.S. Defense Secretary, made it clear to the BBC on the samd day that America's military might is "ready to go" if they received the order from President Barack Obama to hit Syria where it hurts. The case against Syria is being made in the political halls of power. "The options are there, the United States Department of Defense is ready to carry out those options," Secretary Hagel said on the BBC. "We are ready to go, like that," he declared, in reference to the forceful potential of the U.S. to conduct any series of strikes without delay.

Are you investing in oil or gas ahead of any strike, or will you wait until after the conflict comes to a head?
