The Syerian debacle started with the socalled “Arab Spring.” Recall how liberals everywhere danced in the streets. With just a little push all of those horrible western oriented or neutral dictators would collapse and be replaced by...be replaced by...Does anyone remember who was supposed to replace the horrible western oriented dictators? I remember somebody was pushing for a college professor someplace to be the new...elected? Do middle eastern countries have elections? Because, when the do they tend to elect people like Hamas. What, exactly was this wonderful Arab spring that Obama pushed the CIA to create supposed to do again?

The Syrian and Libyan "springs" were actually winters. Ditto for the Yemen "Spring" -- these three countries are hell-holes now.

And this is clearly Obama + Hollande + Cameron's fault -- these three aided the jihadis fighting the regimes

The only middle eastern countries that have regular elections are: Israel, Turkey and Iran. None of these is Arabized

democracy and freedom were blooming. The elites could not abide by that. The elites supported Iran suppressing their people. The elites supported extremists to take control back, They sent guns and weapons and turned their heads to atrocities.
