There has been quite a lot of confusion regarding the events in Syria. The Obama administration does not seem to be able to get its act together to decide what, if anything, it wants to do. Some conservatives support action against Assad, some don’t. And Obama’s left wing base is not pleased at the idea of a war monger in the White House who is not George W. Bush.
Maybe the problem is that everyone knows that Obama makes a mess of everything he touches. In Libya he was on the side of the Jihadists; in Egypt he was on the side of the Muslim Brotherhood and now he is once again supporting the wrong rebels. You know, I’m just some person with a computer and an internet connection, and somehow I seem to be able to find out what the White House cannot figure out; that there are actually some rebels who don’t hate us. But Obama doesn’t want to help them, it seems.
Vallely: Obama backing wrong rebels in Syria
Bob Beauprez | Aug 30, 2013“Financial support and arms flowing through the Supreme Military Council and the Syrian National Council (SNC) have been given to radical Islamic elements that have inserted themselves into the battlefield. The true FSA has not received any of the support from the international community, instead they have been marginalized, even though they are the majority of the support on the ground.”
“The command of the FSA – with the coalition of other defected officers and soldiers from the Syrian Military under Assad – originated to defend innocent protesters and civilians against the brutality and killing of the civilian population of the Assad regime. The true FSA desires to have a good relationship with the United States. During the meeting, the commanders spoke of their desire and aspiration for a Syria that allows for the people to think freely and live in liberty and freedom. They want the support of the United States because they say that the U.S. represents freedom to the world and they want freedom for Syria.”
