I think it’s because they (Obama) thinks Assad isn’t his kind of radical Muslim. Obama has a history IMO of supporting radical rebel jihadists in ‘regime’ change.
Did nothing when the young people rose up in Iran to suppress radical Sharia based tyranny, supported Muslim Brotherhood overthrow of Egypt and Libya....
Nothing this man has done furthers the cause of peace in this world. His Nobel Peace Prize was blasphemy.
It would be an enlightening exercise to research WHO and WHERE the push for Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize came from.
That award is likely cover for his Regime Change Activities in the Middle East.
