The Russians are bombing anyone who is fighting the the "Syrian Army" there are no moderates, and stop blaming Obama this is a neo-librial and neo-conservative plan, Obama just going along with. Stop believing the WSJ BS......
I bet if the American people had a vote on whether to support the rebels "The Free Syrian Army" at a expense of something like a 500 million dollars,(tax payer dollars) or say out of it, i think most Americans would vote to stay out to it, same with Libya "Gadhafi" and most would say that "Saddam" should have stayed in power, we have made a mess out of the mid-east with radicals running all over the place...
The Enemy Within: Terrorist Enablers on the Potomac - Antiwar.com Original by -- Antiwar.com
"What we need is a foreign policy that puts America first: stop defending the Saudis, stop intervening on the side of our enemies, and leave the snake-pit of the Middle East to stew in its own poisonous juices. Before we can do that, however, our bought-and-paid-for political class has to be swept away in a tide of populist anger of the very sort that we are now seeing arising all over the country.
The main enemy isn’t overseas: they’re living the good life here in the USA, right on the banks of the Potomac. The warmongers who control both political parties, the foreign lobbyists, and their shills in the media – these are the enemies within who must be exposed and expunged from public life.
What we are seeing today is the first stirrings of such a movement – and it’s only going to get more intense. That’s something I look forward to every day, because as Bob Dylan said on the cusp of another great era of tumult in this country: the times they are a changing!"
Question for Obama?s Syria plan: Who are the moderate rebels? | Al Jazeera America
"The Obama administration’s plan to pump a half billion dollars into arming and training yet-to-be-identified “moderate” rebels has been criticized and satirized by commentators who believe that no armed faction in Syria could possibly share the U.S. vision for a post-Assad state, and that backing any one of them is dangerous. "
"According to Joshua Landis, a leading U.S. Syria scholar based at the University of Oklahoma, “the last thing we want to do is destroy the rest of government-controlled Syria. There would be millions more refugees pouring into Lebanon and Jordan, and we’d turn the rest of Syria’s cities into Aleppo and Homs," two cities that have been gutted by the three-year civil war.
“Frankly we’ve seen too many failed states fill up with jihadist militias,” he said. “The FSA wouldn’t bring unified rule in Syria, they would bring Somalia, just like you’ve already got in the north.”"
