The Obama administration’s outreach to the Islamic Front in Syria earlier this month failed due to a flawed plan and unrealistic goals, insiders say–and now American influence on the ground with the armed Syrian opposition is at a new low.
Update: Syria misses deadline to remove chemical weapons
I still don’t get how people aren’t rioting over the fact that the Obama admin has been arming Al-Qaeda, the very same sick freaks that took down the twin towers – and behead kids, burn churches, rape women and children, threaten to annihalate Jews, and hate the Great Satan!
Whose side is Obama on anyway?
Obama is plainly and simply an idiotic figurehead. He has the ability to read three word groupings of prepared speeches. That is enough for his 47%.And that seems to be enough.It is truly disheartening.And now the NYT is trying to paper the way for another hideous candidate In Hillary.
No slant in this article
Did you notice how they contrasted the “more Western and democratic-leaning” moderates with “Right of center Salafists in the Islamic Front”.
Do they even think about this, or does “Right of center” really mean undemocratic in their minds. How do you judge a group that wants to get rid of democracy as being “right of center”? Its like saying the football was to the right of the strike zone.
The Syrian Islamic Front, I’m sad to say, must be racist. What other explanation can there possibly be for rejecting the sage counsel of the black president?
I agree and endorse the above comments.
But, but, surely Hillary will turn the economy around in short time; have we already forgotten that H.R.C. turned a $1,000 investment in cattle futures, into $100,000 in less than a year? This was shortly after the big Jerk was elected POTUS.
Need you ask?
Whatever Putin’s position is, let’s just go with that. Washington is hopeless.
Washington=hopeless. Yes indeed.
When it comes to Iran, Israel, and the rest of ‘over there’, I think I’ll stick with Canada’s position.
About three months ago David Goldman wrote that the US was being cut out of the information flow on
Middle Eastern affairs, where the major non regional players now were Russia and China. He said that for
that reason he was no longer willing to make predictions for the future.
The US has developed a reputation as being untrustworthy. With the present creatures in power, the Obama and
the Kerry, that feeling has obviously intensified. And there remains the fact that personal qualities do count
for a lot in world affairs. Few people can stomach being in the same room with the Obama.
There are some things that even jihadis won’t do!
Obama + Kerry = empty suit + empty brain
Trick question…which is which?
President Clouseau.
Haha! The Daily Beast says today that “Obama Will Fight the Surveillance
State in 2014”. The leftards really don’t know their man yet.
The moderates don’t eat you, while using a real sword to cut your head off. The none moderates dine on your flesh while using a butcher knife to behead people. That’s the difference.
The whorish media will of course continue to pretend otherwise for the Muslim messiah Obama.
Unfortunately for them, less believe them than ever before.
Awaiting Obama’s hissy-fit speech of renowned great oratory and zero effect.
The empty chair speaks!
Few people can stomach being in the same room with the Obama.
Do you have a source for that statement?
A few years back, I read a story about the British lead-up to WWII. Even after the Germans invaded Poland, there were still people high up in the government and military who opposed a declaration of war because they needed more time to reach out to the moderates in Nazi Germany.
All of these things, in O’Bambi’s mind they are features, not bugs.
I would love to know what the Secret Service think of this guy. I would imagine the jokes are classic.What an impotent tit this person is.Both him and the Mooch.
obumbles has screwed up 6 ways to breakfast on the Syrian file, makes un-realistic demands, and then send in a low level FEMALE, does this rectum not get that very few ppl think (oxymoron alert) as he does, he needs to learn to understand others, but he never will, he’s a devote narcissist
Their side.
He has no intention on bringing Islamic groups to any table. He is a war-monger and an Islamist.
So as one of the great accomplishments of 2013, why is Obama now talking up war with Syria? I must not understand accomplishment.
Yeah well, the rumble is that twice, the IDF had their bombers lit up ready to take off and the Yanks spotted the heat blooms from orbit and tipped off Iran, through the media wire service.
Not the way ta keep friends and influence…..
This logically will result in Israel deciding that if the mullahs want nukes they should give ’em some……
they have now got sub launchable cruise puppies, Iran should be concerned
Oh don’t be pedantic. Leave that to me 🙂 But observe the body language of those in the same room with Obama.
Michelle Obama, to begin with. His older dog, for another. Vladimir Putin, for another. The King of Saudi Arabia,
for another.
