Obamas next move will be his speech tonight.

"Let me be clear: It is vital that we do whatever is necessary to cleanse Syria of the curse of Christianity, err, I mean chemical weapons."

Putin is now the acting Police Chief of the New World Disorder, and he just issued Barry a warning ticket. Maybe Putin’s efforts will quell the head-loppers and organ-eaters, and slow down the persecution of Christians. So we got THAT goin’ for us.

“One side is as bad as the next.”

Not really. The Alawites don’t exterminate Christians:

Assad is probably the best that can be expected from a ruler in the middle east. He clearly treats Christians much better than the Saudis and the Pakistanis.

Here’s the contrast:

“Obama’s unintended consequence is the death of more of his Al Qaeda friends in Syria by Russian weapons. Hey Obama... dead is dead no matter how the people are killed - you’ve just approved Russia’s involvement. But I guess that is okay as long as it is not “chemical weapons” slaughtering everyone. What brilliance!”

I’ve got a hilarious vision of a bunch of Obama speechwriters sitting around watching the news as they furiously scribble out lines only to replace them with lines the wrote and scribbled out earlier.

Even Assad does more to protect the Christians than Obama does.

This is another aspect of what “should be” a component of U.S. response to Putin’s insistance that we remove our threat of attack, as a part of Syria giving up Chem Weapons.

U.S. “should” tell Putin, et al,:
“We will NOT have the terms Syria’s surrender of Chemical Weapons dictated by their principle advanced weapons supplier!”

...if we only had a LEADER!

Nothing. Bluster. Sarah called him "Zero" for a reason.

Last week one of the Syrian Christian anti war protesters in Detroit said that things weren't perfect under Assad but at least his mother didn't have to fear leaving her house.

Putin is playing Obama like a whore plays a 15 year old boy with money in his pocket.

LOL...that narrows it down!

Seriously though, there are so many battles going on, each of them important in their own way as they all pose a detrimental outcome, it really is very difficult to keep up.

I'd bet to some degree it is all by design too.

Assad is putting down the murdering ‘rebels’ who are murdering Christians. Thank you, Putin.

I hope this story is true. I have been praying daily for the Christians in Syria to be protected from Obama's evil soul mates - Al Qaeda.

Obama's main concern is unleashing Al Qaeda so they can slaughter all the Christians. It brings him great joy.
