WTF White House Statement Of The Day: Syria Airstrikes Edition
When President Obama bragged earlier that "The United States is and will remain the one indispensable nation in the world..." adding that "no other nation can do what we do," we should have guessed some more war-mongering was coming... and sure enough. As AP reports, it appears Syrian airstrikes are on their way, but there's a mind-blowing twist in US foreign policy: "In an effort to avoid unintentionally strengthening the Syrian government, the White House could seek to balance strikes against the Islamic State with attacks on Assad regime targets." In the words of the Guinness commercial, Brilliant.
The intelligence gathered by U.S. military surveillance flights over Syria could support a broad bombing campaign against the Islamic State militant group, but current and former U.S. officials differ on whether air power would significantly degrade what some have called a "terrorist army."
"Air power needs to be applied like a thunderstorm, not a drizzle," Deptula said, entailing "24-7 overwatch with force application on every move of ISIL personnel."
Further complicating the plans, any military action against Islamic State militants in Syria would also have the effect of putting the U.S. on the same side as Syrian President Bashar Assad, whose ouster the Obama administration has sought for years.
So first Iran and now Syria are best buddies with America? Well we can't have that...
The U.S. is not cooperating or sharing intelligence with the Assad government, Pentagon and State Department spokesmen said. But the U.S. flights are occurring in eastern Syria, away from most of Syria's air defenses. And experts expressed doubt that Syria would attempt to shoot down American aircraft that are paving the way for a possible bombing campaign against Assad's enemies.
...
In an effort to avoid unintentionally strengthening the Syrian government, the White House could seek to balance strikes against the Islamic State with attacks on Assad regime targets. However, that option is largely unappealing to the president given that it could open the U.S. to the kind of long-term commitment to Syria's stability that Obama has sought to avoid.
* * *
So to summarize:
...the limited airstrikes in Iraq (which the Iraqi government did not ask for) now appear to be expanding into '24/7 carpet-bombing' of ISIS targets in Syria (which the US are not asking permission or forgiveness for) and in the interests of "fairness doctrine" America will bomb al-Assad's military installations to maintain some 'balance' between the moderate terrorists, extreme terrorists (and national armies), and scary-as-shit terrorists...
Is there something we missed?
White House spokesman Josh Earnest on Monday tried to tamp down the notion that action against the Islamic State group could bolster Assad, saying, "We're not interested in trying to help the Assad regime." However, he acknowledged that "there are a lot of cross pressures here."
"Cross-pressures" indeed. And all humanitarian.

Could we make it a bakers dozen and add Nancy Pelosi (idiot) to that list?
\\\\ he will go down as the most incompetent president irregardless at this point
I'm am being (probably, almost certainly) very forgiving to him.
By the way, all the timelines I mentioned above are neutered if he authorises and chooses airstrikes against Syria in the next few days, weeks, months.
End of the year is the maximum time he has left, airstrikes in Syria indicate he's made his choice, and its the wrong one, and onward to World War 3 we go.
Within weeks of airstrikes in Syria we will see all the following.
Russia >>> Ukraine
North Korea >>> South Korea
China >>> Taiwan
Iran >>> Qatar, Bahrain, UAE, Saudi Arabia
Perhaps even some cute things like
Hungary >>> Ukraine
India ><><>< Pakistan
Once it is on, it is on.
He was put there to Destroy America. Get it through your thick f**ling skull.
When are you people going to wake up and get off this incompetence BS. You must watch TV and support it all with your TV viewership like a dumb shit. He is there to destroy America and is succeeding. Open borders, mass invasion and Congress, the Judiciary and Military do NOTHING.
Nothing will be fixed. Stop being so stupid and living in a fairy tale. Everything is corrupt now. Not just 12 scumbags. Wake up stupid or go watch Fox/CNN/plus Hollywood's shit.
So you disagree that Nancy Pelosi is an idiot?
This can't be fixed...
wtf is america and why is it worth saving?
do you watch pretty little liars though?
"The best thing he has done in his Presidency so far is muddle around and prevaricate and eventually allow the voice of the American people via their Congressmen to halt the march to airstrikes in Syria a year ago."
BO never gave a shit about the voice of the American people. The British Parliament shut down the Syria bombing so the US would have gone in solo. Congress cried like a baby saying "Parliament got to vote so why don't we?? waahhhh". Knowing the vote would fail in Congress, BO surrendered to decency and Putin. The surrender to Putin on this issue is a seething rage with Obama, seeking his revenge in Ukraine and still gunning for Syria.
Unfortunately, he doesn't have any authority over Biden.
With Obama's statement today, lexicographers around the world will be busy redefining the pejorative, "nigger."
Aerial bombings for some, miniature American flags for others!
All because he looked like a ball-less wonder with his stupid red lines. Now he's got Hell's Angels themselves about to do what he said he would but didn't. And he was okay with that until the beheading.
Now he's got a shit storm of his own making and is about to put our boys and girls lives on the line yet again....for nothing.
Here's an action plan you stupid piece of shit. Nuke it from orbit....it's the only way to be sure.
I’m in show business, why come to me? . . .
War is show business, that’s why we’re here.

Any chance usa and russia made a deal.i swap you ukraine for syria
Don't think so, Tartus is a keeper.

If Putin sold out Syria, it would seriously harm or destroy his reputation. I think he values his reputation while the USA politicians, govt, military, intel - sell out countries and friends on a daily basis.
if he was a real pal he'd deliver a few dozen S-400 batteries to Syria...... just to balance the equation so to speak.....
He did, S-300 or perhaps BUK's bombed in the warehouse by Israel..
Allegedly. Ever heard of a red herring?
The word play of racist community organizing dooshbags. Obama and his smirking pack of low borws must be shown seer penalties at some point in their lives. It's never too early.
What about midnight basketball? Could that be a solution to ISIS / Assad ?
You gotta be a special kinda stupid to be in the US military and obey orders like these. Obozo is signing your death warrant case he won't be on the front line catching the bullets when this thing inevitably blows up.
Anyone who has allowed his kid to still be in the US Military is a moron. If I had a kid and he was on leave, I would break his leg to get him discharged. And Bushes and Clintons with their wars are just as bad.
Is there no way to stop this lunatic?!
Surely Assad can't be happy about this & will do something about it... maybe Put in can help... yet again...
Looks like the S-300 will e put to the test against American planes flown by American Pilots. Previous excuses were always that the planes were not full-spec models and the pilots were not American.
There are no cameras on the tip of the missiles so one could watch Mr American Pie-lot eject, though. It seems Russian weapons manufacturers do not exhibit the same blood lust as its American counterparts.
S-300 is not in syria.
When the UN put sanctions russia couldn't deliver.
Israel bombed the half delivered first shipment, it was either just the missiles without the launchers or the other way around.
I guess we'll find out
Apparently they are:

I had a problem with field mice at my property...they made my life miserable. traps helped, but
I found that if I dip cotton balls in peppermint oil and put them in all the places I want to protect,
it works perfectly...no more field mice, seems they hate peppermint oil!!
. How this relates to the article, I have no clue, you guys are much
smarter than me and I thought you might make some sense of why I even brought this up :-)
The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft agley,
An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain
As good an explanation as any of the others.
You have an online business selling cotton balls dipped in peppermint oil.
You suspect terrorists hate peppermint and think if only we could drop large enough cotton balls soaked in peppermint the problem would be solved.
You own shares in a company that manufactures peppermint oil.
You have dementia and when you realized part way through that you were on the wrong blog you thought bugger it I can't be bothered writing it out again.
lol aussie...actually, I am barely holding on to my silver...I would not get involved in anything but silver..
but you did make me laugh, thanks. :-) But maybe I should start a peppermint cotton ball company? :-)
Sorry, but I had a few beers tonite, and I think my days of LSD had a flashback :-)
ok, maybe I have my own answer...who would terrorists not bother? answer: a country that left them the frick alone!!! :-)
You're a riddle with no cheese to maze through. But seriously, Tropic Thunder seems more logical and sober than our actual foreign policy these days.
You tube "spinning bucket trap", easy to make and maintain, kill hundreds of the bastards.
Your welcome.
Who makes the bombs?
Who are the major shareholders in the companies that make the bombs . . . cough . . . Cheney . . . cough . . . Rumsfeld . . . cough . . . <insert prefix here>stein.
The CB's must be frothing at the mouth for the nuke to finally go off in a major US city. Absolutely frothing at the mouth. They must be so excited and brimming with anticipation at the gargantuan amount of money now to be made to the downside. All that US pension money can be inistantly transferred into a few wealthy hands. Ideally this nuke will be set off in a place that destroys as much evidence of the malfeacance perpetrated over the last few years.
I wonder when Cheney is going to set the final plan into motion?
Jackson Hole?
Ideally this nuke will be set off in a place that destroys as much evidence of the malfeacance perpetrated over the last few years
So basically Wall Street, London and DC have to take it in the neck
You're right actually, you'd need a pretty big fucking nuke to cover up the fraud of the last few years.
Obama did say he was busy trying to prevent a nuke going off in Manhattan.
I'm so fucking sick of this shit. The U.S.S.A war mongers destabliize governments across the globe, violate any sovereign country's airspace that they feel like, and then they have the audacity to claim that Russia is the problem in the world. I used to have a lot of respect for our service people, but not any longer. Not until they do their sworn duty, defend the constitution, and arrest the terrorist fucks in Washington. Of course when our military is reduced to this:
At ease: Obama eyes transgendered troops
http://washingtonexaminer.com/commission-pentagon-obama-likely-will-let-...
I don't expect much.
There is no need to respect people in uniform. This is a trained response to ensure a never ending supply of new recruits. People who join the army and navy are killers, end of fucking story. How many instances since world war II can you cite where military personnel are defending their own soil. The obvious and hugely ironic exception here is Iraq. Their military have been trying to defend the country against US invasion for more than a decade. Afganistan is another notable exception. The mujahideen have been defending their soil against US invasion for how many years?
The fact so many people are willing to enlist and then the fact so many others (especially politicians) idolise and exhalt these assholes is a sad testament to the human race. It also goes to show just how deeply we are conditioned by society to behave in certain ways. Shocking realisation isn't it when Iraqi military and Afghanistan terrorists have a higher moral ground than the US. They have at least taken up arms against an invading force.
If you were to say such things a couple of decades ago you would be run out of town but people are slowly waking up to the extent to which we have all been brain washed to fight banker wars. Same thing with religion, twenty or thirty years ago if you said anything bad about religion we were trained to show deep offence. Fucking fascinating stuff. We're like biological automatons programmed from birth.
STOP ENLISTING IN THE US ARMY YOU MURDERING LOW LIFE MOTHER FUCKERS.
I have infinetly more respect for a guy who flips burgers to pay for college than a guy who joins the military to do so.
AMERICANS!!!
You have the highest amount of fire arms per capita. What are you waiting for?
Who do you think have to remove your pale parasite?
Everyone with a couple of planes is bombing the shit outta the middle east. Shouldn't the United Nations at least send in some air traffic controllers? They could make it like Tee times. "Egyptian foursome you're up. Qatari twosome you're next."
Let me guess, Canada gets to start from the Ladies' tees?
Canada was caught with its fingers in the Ukrainian war pie. Donetsk Armed Forces captured a truck full of Javelin missiles from Canada.
Oh no, don't tell me that horrible carnage was Ottawa-based. Holy shit. (Thanks for the tip.)
Edit: I only say this because there's never been a suitable explanation given for how a town square was so (by my eyes) demonstratively damaged, or how Pushilin's car was hit so precisely in June. Sorry if I was not clear.
The source for the Javelin story would be much appreciated.
Edit. I shouldn't be so lazy...
The Saker, August 25
".. Partisan activities are increasing in frequency and force in the Kharkov and Slavyansk areas to the point Kharkov is building defenses facing Novorossiya. Of particular interest was the capture two weeks ago of an entire Kamaz load of Javelin antitank missiles. These missiles were offloaded from the 'Canadian' air force planes that brought 'non lethal' aid to the Uke army according to eye witnesses. The Javelin is not listed in the TOE (Table of Organization and Equipment) of the armed forces of Canada, although I have few doubts that that oversight will be rectified within minutes of this report being read in The West.
Thanks to Harper and Bum Boy Baird.
Yep. That's the one.
Of course one would not expect to hear about it from the BBC.
Those missiles will make it much easier for the NDF to deal with Ukrainian Armor.
Next stop Mariupol.
What did you expect. Canada is only about 1/4 Ukrainian. Our Jews and Ukrainians fight each other but I'm sure they would get together to hit Russia. And Harper is the muppet that makes it possible.
Finally! A military strategy that ol' Blood-And-Guts Obama can understand. Brilliant!
Absolutely hilarious, Assad will be happy the US has decided to stop arming the terrorists attacking him and is going to bomb them instead to get rid of all those weapons the US has been handing them, not so happy the US is also going to bomb his stuff because they don't want him to have an unfair advantage over the very terrorists they are bombing.
Hilarious watching Washington trying to spin this.
whom the gods would destroy, they first make Barack Obama the president.
"...the White House could seek to balance strikes against the Islamic State with attacks on Assad regime targets."
On behalf of myself and the many others that have been screaming that ISIS is really a CIA/Israeli construct to be used as an excuse for CIA-Obama to bomb Assad--We told you so.
An American, not US subject.
Happened faster than I thought. But it was obvious all along. You did what you could, Assad, but your time has come. On the next episode, either Kiev (somewhat) gives in or gets fucked up.
I saw Bin Laden come across the US/Mexican border 2 1/2 weeks ago. I think Obamus should close that border before he starts bombing himself and ISIS.
They could try being honest.
'look folks we messed up and we are going to have to spend another couple of trillion dollars, courtesy of the US tax payer and probably kill another couple of hundred thousand people of which only a very small amount will actually be terrorists to try and fix the problem...Ta Da.'
Psychopaths cannot admit to being wrong. Not that they internally realise they are wrong and want to consciously avoid this information being known, they have no internal sense of being wrong. The concept doesn't exist in their minds. As the internal world of an Aspergers sufferer has no concept of give and take, not that they are being selfish and don't give a shit, the concept doesn't exist in their minds.
You'd reckon with all the gun toting citizens some of these psychpathic assholes would have been picked off, leaving home, going to a bar, talking to constituents. I mean, how hard can it be to find Cheney or Rumsfeld on a sunny day in the US ??????????????????????????? The only thing these people understand is death, this is what they mete out on innocent human beings every single day. This is the only thing in turn that will stop them. You can't sit down and have a chat with these people to see the error of their ways as (refer above), they have no internal notion of error.
So the last message from the American people did not get through...WE DO NOT WANT WAR..with Russia or anyone else...that's why we told you to stay the fuck out of Syria last year...this guy has gone from ridulous to dangerous.
It doesn't matter what the people want or do not want. USA stayed out of Syria on the last episode because the military resisted. It was considered a too risky combination of relative Assad strength and Russian activity. But it was obvious that sooner or later they would find a way to bomb the country, without officially bombing the country, once circumstances become more favorable. Similar to what the Israelis do.
Please Vlad, destroy US jets and other military assets in Syria. They have gotten beyond our control.
Damn you and your freedom America!!!
Save yourselves from the 'terrorists,' submit to the DC US terrorists.
An American, not US subject.
Okay, are you fucking kidding me! They are going to attack both sides in Syria? So really, we now get our war on Syria, but by a back door means that even Orwell could not have dreamed up.
Neocons! How many posts have I made attacking these Neocon fucks? This is them at their very deadliest. Starting a war on a nation state because we need to balance out this equation.
This is a war crime, equal to Bush's war crimes. Finally the cunt neocons have found a way to declare war on Syria.
Syria needs to be cleared out for the next wave of Jooish settlers.
Perhaps they are neolibs?
The global military industrial complex is the big tent party.
No war is immoral if initiated by a Nobel Laureate.
This would give Russia 100% legitimacy to start bombing Kiev.
Yep, great idea. Is this merely yet another ploy to draw Russia into Ukraine like they always wanted?
No Russia has no rights, it is free and souvereign, not part of the ZOGs. It's only protection is it's atomic bombs. But rights? Nope.
or China to take out Japan.......or India to take out Pakistan......it could be a very dangerous world
Our government and this particular Prez has disgraced the citizens of the US with the level of arrogance, hubris, meglomania and psychopathic behavior, that the rest of the world would like to aim every missle, ICBM, SAM and Scud they have, and fire them at us at the same time...I am truly ashamed and I weep for our children. We have become as disgusting as Israel. Of course, our government is run by Israelis... Nuff said.
Oh he was helped by TV and Hollywood, Congress, the Military and Pentagon, plus the banksters and corporations. Unplug TV and Hollywood or keep supporting it. Starve the beast.
Josh Earnest? Really, c'mon now, you've got to be kidding me!
Nobel Peace Prize at work... stand clear everyone.
This is just a sham to skirt public opposition against millitary intervention in Syria to finally bomb Assad.
Just like the 'humanitarian' bombing in Nth Iraq to help the yedizi turned into helping the Kurds secure their borders and puts them closer to eventually break away from Iraq.
isis and al nusra will be going after syrian bases trying to take out some of that nice integrated air def system soften them up some giving a clear run for us,brit,qatari,turkey,uae and israeli shock and awe all planes painted one team usa for cover.
all invested in gas and oil pipeline futures.
chatham house rothschilds wants it.
then let it be so
cos it written in der talmud
President O-BomB-A to the rescue.
Fuck it. Let's do some humanitarian nuking or, perhaps more appropriate for Syria, VX gassing. Jesus. Yet further proof that the primary role of government is PR. As long as you look like you're in control, you can keep the skim flowing. Really, we're going to effectively manage a raging civil war?
Politics follows biology.
3rd world population and politicians, 3rd world politics...
divide and conquer(manage)it is working.
Sickests among the sicks.
At some point they're gonna have to bomb the entire World.
Well, at least that way all the oil is gonna be available for the USSA and some are gonna get that homogeinity they seem to seek.
You fuckers voted for him.
dont you get it yet...it doesnt matter who got voted in
Yes and no. I think if Romney was in - people would be all over him if he did anything.
Obama can do anything and no one says or does anything.
I didn't. It was the idiots who wanted their "free stuff". I cannot wait for the economic collapse here. Perhaps that will eliminate millions of them.
i voted loser nader the first term
green party the second....
Voting is done with electronic black box machines. We don't really know who voted.
One bomb for them, and one bomb for him,
One drone strike against you, and one against them,
wait, whos turn is it?
And now to the other war
I've been watching and reading Ukraine updates and they are very edifiying to say the least. bullet points.
- Donbass militia is now DPR with formal military units and are beginning to counterattack
_ Cauldrons of Ukies are being squeezed and eliminated one by one and some of the video is pretty gruesome. I mean guts hanging out and burned bodies in the midst of burned out tanks. Vineyard of the Saker gives a good analysis of how and why this is happening.
- Canadian anti tank rocket systems just off the plane that was suppose to be carrying nonlethal aid captured by DPR
- Mercernaries and contractors from Poland and "the west" helping Ukranians
- Instances of American contractors at training base for Ukies being taken out by snipers while swimming
- Russian and French volunteers working with DPR
- Some of the units the DPR are fighting against, are the same named SS units with the same unit patches that their fathers and grandfathers fought in the great war.
- Too much to go into, but you won't hear any of it on Western MSM. The DPR guys giving one of the interviews made the point that it seems that every 30-50 years "the west" has to try and invasion of Russia and the east to impose Western values on them and it always ends the same way...with the fall of Berlin, Paris and other cities. Right now they are late and slightly behind schedule, but they're starting it again. DPR soldiers seem in good spirits, motivated and have a good understanding of what they are fighting for.
It would almost be funny if it wasn't sick that the Canadian Javelin missiles got captured by DPR.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FGM-148_Javelin
F Canada-Harper-Bronfman-Cohon-Reichmans.
DPR or the former rebels have been giving the Ukies a chance to surrender or walk away. If not they will kill them. The Ukies are fighting for an illegal and corrupt junta.
DPR is saying they are fighting mercenaries including Poles and "blacks" on drugs. I wonder if they are Africans chewing chat like Somalis. This will enrage the locals.
http://www.vineyardsaker.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-defence-ilovaisk-repor...
You would expect Waffen-SS units to be active again as the UK/US had a thing about preserving the 14th Galician intact with its weapons in Rimini ready for their planned war with the USSR in 1954 (see Lord Montgomery of Alamein comments) but Stalin was murdered in 1953.
The structure of the USMC nowadays owe much to the Waffen-SS in terms of army-within-an-army
in the meantime nobody is talking about the 40 Turkish hostages ISIS
took from the Turkish embassy months ago. Something stinks here.
Clearly they were advised to do this by their CIA/NSA handlers to keep Turkey onside and in NATO.
The Turks need to wake up to themselves and realise they're being used.
The best thing Turkey could do right now is withdraw from NATO in protest at the Syrian strikes and declare neutrality and close the Bosporous.
Does Erdogan have the strength, the leadership or the mettle?
I doubt it, but there is certainly a lot of press about how he is not happy with the Americans. If he is to have any impact as Turkish President he needs to act in the next few days or weeks, or the time will pass.
Erdogan - are you a real leader or merely a cowardly puppet?
The Turks were funneling Libyan weapons into Syria to unseat Assad. Maybe they wanted a "greater Turkey", a more Turk-friendly Syria regime, who knows? It's all a quagmire. The US has no legitimate reason to play puppet master here. But, it does beg the question. Who benefits most from an unstable Syria? My money is on Israel. The Israelis only have to deal with Palestinians now, and only in the Gaza. With Syria fighting itself, there won't be any concerted effort by an Arab nation to join in the fight. Which also begs the question of why ISIS hasn't attacked Israel?
The US will need to bomb the PKK Kurds to please Turkey and then bomb Turkey to please the Kurds so they keep fighting. It should bomb London to stop the flow of terrorists to ISIL but not bomb the Docklands for fear of damaging Goldman Sachs
Are you kidding?
We have the Master of PUPPET MASTER'S leading the world today, OBAMA!!!
FLAMES, FIRE AND BRIMSTONE coming to your town, soon.
Turkey is totally controlled by you know who. It is an Islamic ccountry controlled by dual citizens and Erdogan is supposedly tribe.
so bomb ISIS and government forces?
and in doing so leave Syrians in total, utter and complete destruction and chaos...
for the love of christ hasn't Washington done enough to these people already? kept this war going even though it has almost no popular support among the majority of the Syrian people.
is this what it was all about this whole time? is this why ISIS ended up with large amounts of American weapons, why they suddenly had the mussel, the money and the organization to launch a campaign of rapid dominance across large parts of Iraq and Syria?
is this who they were secrectly training, arming and funding this whole time? is this the "moderate opposistion" Mccain went to visit...it would make sense cause the FSA sure as hell was not getting shit from uncle sam. are we now seeing exactly who got all the arms, all the money and all the training?
now the picture becomes a little bit clearer, the false flag chemical attack last summer didn't quite get it done. but now we have ISIS which is a threat to the entire planet, we have the new and improved, supersized AL-CIADA which can destroy an American city and they are posting photos showing everybody that they are all ready here.
so we must bomb them, we must destroy them, we must be ruthless and show no mercy on these terrorist for they will show us none. we must get them before they get us...
wherever they may be.
so you see it is Iraq all over again and the Orwellian mind fuck bait and switch has already been set up.
we are at war with ISIS, we have always been at war with the Assad government.
in two days we went from no chance of involvement in Syria to Washington is considering bombing everything that moves in that country. ISIS was the gateway, the excuse, set loose to exactly this point and purpose, the perfect cover to finally attack Syria.
god help those innocent people in Syria who have already suffered so much over the past three years if those sick, evil satanic psychos in Washington get there way. cause there will be nothing left of Syria if they do...
need any more proof that it is the devil himself who feeds the teleprompter the TOTUS reads from?
attack ISIS in a country where they have no right, no permission and no authority to use weaons of war AND attack the only organized goverment that country has left after 3 years of war...
this is insanity, this is evil.
so bomb ISIS and government forces?

Quite possibly the best post on this site, EVER!
Thanks marcusfenix..
the Bible does say quite specifically at the End Time Damascus will be utterly destryoyed.
Jus' sayin'.......
Thank you again Marcus. You and a few other posters are what makes it worth reading the comments.
Ignoring the trolls(paid and unpaid) is a small price to pay to read someone who can crystalize the headlines in such short and concise prose.
THank you again for posting.
Assad has greater support of the Syrian population than Obama has of the American population. This means that Assad has more moral right to bomb America than Obama has to bomb Syria.
Even "Hitler" had a plan, before it went awry!...will this evil, succeed?
CRIMINALS
Hitler was a front man. Fascism was, and is, a design by corporations to control nation states. Hence the American Industrialists support for Hitler.
Jesse made an iteresting post on it today:
http://jessescrossroadscafe.blogspot.in/2014/08/gold-daily-and-silver-weekly-charts_26.html
Any attack on Assad's forces is
unequivocably a War of Aggression,
equivalent to Bush's Iraq war.
Considering that he's armed and funded the jihadist rebels, I'd say that condition has already been met.
proxy wars carry an element
of plausible deniability, as does
the employment of mercenaries
such as Blackwater...The moment
you involve your own militia, the
veil of plausible deniability disappears
This shit is now beyond surreal....
The people of the world must hate us for our freedums! The current version of the United States is an embarrassment to mankind.
What would you call another sovereign nation launching a bombing campaign within our borders and consistently trying to overthrow and kill our President?
It is all Russia's fault.
And those sneaky Chinese too.
"We realized that we could save a lot of intellegence budget if we just bomb everything"
we have no intelligence, so just bomb everything...
better?
Start organizing the neighborhoods...
So now American exceptionalism means being able to cluster bomb BOTH sides?
They will probably join forces against us.

It could really be simple. Suppose Obummer wants to continue to support ISIS, but is concerned about fall elections.

I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
...you can't fix stupid...but you can term limit it out of office...
So we are going to bomb both sides...really?
Barry is a bad and mean man, worse bad man than Saddam Hussein.
What a nightmare, a delusional psychopath wants to blow up both sides and expect to come out a winner; moar like a suicide mission with no hope of winning. Ha. Ha.
Ironic is it not, American military blowing up American made heavy military equipment at tax payer debt expense; that is insane. Barry has political capital to blow?
Why not declare war on China, Russia and the rest of the world like a real psycho Kenyon Liein King. Ha. Ha.

Pop Quiz: How many Jedi Knights would it take to eradicate ISIS?
Getting beheaded by a light saber would leave no blood as the power and heat would cauterize the wounds -- maybe the executioner dressed in black robes is really a Sith -- and like all good 'bad guys' even has a British accent!
Did we actually see the executioner's lips move?
Could it have been Nuland off camera doing the butch voice she uses when she whips her husband?
The USA loves Bashir al-Assad. The USA has always loved Bashir al-Assad.
"We are al-Assad now!"- Hillbilly Clinton's Campaign slogan for 2016*. (*Replaces "Benghaziiiiiiii!" as it is less controversial and no animals are killed in the presentation.)
So its a threat. He's saying, let us bomb these ISIS fucks and don't down our planes with your S300's...if you do, then we start bombing you too... ??? something like that.
Syria has not had to worry about air attacks from ISIS but with US planes and drones in the skies it will give Putin a chance to test out some anti-aircraft weapons in Syria. The problem for the US is that they don't have a lot of neutral bases to launch these attacks from. While they have the capability to launch - it won't take long to figure out the routes that the planes/drones/missiles have to take to get in or out of Syria. This will let Syria set up their defenses much more effectively. As soon as the US hits an Assad target all bets are off.
ISIS has taken over major Syria military in Raqqa base with fighterjets, tanks, etc.

Problem (create ISIS) - Reaction (beheading) - Solution (bomb away other country goverment)
I suppose no UNSC resolution wont be. When two criminals fight as Putin regime and US oligarch regime - international law is a joke.
Most of the bombing in the Middle East and elsewhere in recent times by Obama and also other nations (eg: Egypt & UAE jointly bombing Libya, Israel levelling Gaza and the Ukie Poroshenko fascist junta levelling East Ukraine) have never been voted upon or approved by the UN. They probably never would be.
The post WWII consensus that the UN will be the final arbiter of disputes between nations is breaking down. Wise people already knew that it was always going to be like this.
As political elites and their criminal cronies become ever more desperate to remain in power to milk their treasuries, assert their authority and deflect attention away from the economic, social disasters and criminality they have themselves sponsored, the maps of war will expand.
The world is sinking into a collection of small wars which will eventually merge into a collection of bigger wars with everybody fighting everybody else for what's left.
Obama's latest decision to not only bomb ISIS in Syria but also Assad (ie: both sides), is a perfect example of what is emerging.
Isn't it ironic that many of the refugees who have been made homeless by the fighting between Assad and the US-backed rebels have fled Syria -- when in fact these are the same group of people that could have eventually formed a majority electorate that could have peacefully elected someone other than Assad? The only voters left in Syria now support Assad even more!
Nuke the entire site from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

(Reuters) - Unidentified, heavily-armed strangers with Russian accents have appeared in an eastern Ukrainian village, arousing residents' suspicions despite Moscow's denials that its troops have deliberately infiltrated the frontier.
Two witnesses told Reuters on Tuesday that the dozens of men, who arrived at the weekend and set up a road block, were not local and had military ration packs marked with Russian writing.
While they wore no insignia, their appearance or behavior bore striking similarities to a group of Russian troops detained in Ukraine in the past few days, and to Russian forces which occupied Crimea earlier this year, the witnesses said.
The men had white arm bands, the same identifying mark that was worn by 10 men captured a few kilometers (miles) away by Ukrainian forces and who, in video released on Tuesday, said they were Russian paratroopers.

Okay.
But did you think they they good in bed?
I hope you are right. That would be a big help to the Novorossiyans in their battle against teh Kiev Nazis. But it really is of no strategic importance as the rebels are doing quite well without Russian help:

Soon I think, the Kiev Banderistas will find themselves on the run from people with utter revenge on their minds.
Moron, how about your SS history? Do you still admire Hitler?
I'm sure we can rely on this reuters/Kiev reportage.
Surely, there are no Junta supporters who understand "Russian writing" and speak the language passably well.
"While they wore no insignia"
"The men had white arm bands"
So, lets' get this clear: did they or didn't they have some recognizable insignia ?
Ukie trolls just can't ever seem to make sense.
Actually, the reason the US wants to bomb both ISIS and Assad is that Assad is really fighting the US-backed 'moderate rebels'. Assad knows his army is not strong enough to take on ISIS so he is negotiating with ISIS and is willing to give ISIS parts of Syria for their Caliphate and he has negotiated oil deals with ISIS too. In other words - things are too Peaceful between Assad and ISIS!
Thus the moderate rebels really are fighting both Assad and ISIS - and in Obama's mind this makes both legitimate targets.
"The moderate rebels"... gotta love that meme.
