Is this not treason?

I'm going to see if the 'red' disappears and pray the kittehs will stop me by keeping the 'red' of 'llss' if this question should not be asked ...

So the author is basically saying all the red lines in Syria were bluffs, while the true nature was to run the bluff of red lines and pull a double cross against saud and qatar and allow isis to gain strength and postponing any action against isis to draw out the monetary exchanges and observe and the walk in the garden with General Dempsey was simply intended to be a ruse?

No red under Word Wrap:ON so am posting.

By your tactics, we will know your strategy.

I thought the article got muddled at the end when he tried to explain why Obama had not yet bombed ISIS in Syria. My own opinion is that Obama is sympathetic to both Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood, with ISIS being an extreme MB offshoot. As a result, he is in a quandary. Then again, part of me is so disgusted with the Muslim world, that their "eating themselves" in a very public & graphic manner is not the worst of all possible outcomes. Let everyone see what they really are.

The author is also telling you that VJ runs the WH - via instructions from the Iranian mullahs.

Moo-cow and VJ take Obizmal off to a private conference when decisions have to be made. Obizmal afterward supports whatever position VJ took prior to the conference - via Blood Feud: The Clintons vs. the Obamas by Edward Klein.

Clown Prince nobama has a strategy...and has been open about it. He is “transforming” America. He is effective in doing so. It is very difficult for many to accept that they support a traitor in his ruinous ways. In a sense, they are co-traitors by their support. Treason, I’d say.

I read ML's column last evening, and while I've learned to respect his interpretation of events, in the Middle East especially, what he wrote this time left me with a lot of questions.

The rise of the Islamo-Nazis straddling the Nineveh plains aided the cause of the Shia mullahs in Tehran, or those formerly represented by Maliki in Baghdad? That's a Sunni franchise of the chain, and they don't even offer an opportunity for submission to Shiites, when they cross paths. They just execute them.

I'm not denying his claims regarding backdoor connections to Tehran, but the Muslim Brotherhood and their Sunni supporters in the Kingdoms are already embedded in Foggy Bottom and on staff in Washington. Ledeen doesn't address this novel cooperation between these two strains of Islam that have been killing one another in bunches almost from the hour Mohammed died.

Notice the Qatar articles this morning about them funding terrorists? Looks like a jab to me.

Is this not a high crime or a misdemeanor?

During his first presidential campaign in 2008, Mr. Obama used a secret back channel to Tehran to assure the mullahs that he was a friend of the Islamic Republic, and that they would be very happy with his policies.

Secret? It was no secret. He wrote in his book that he would side with the Muslims. Doesn't anyone ever pay attention anymore?

yep, am not one to have faith in vj nor anything that has a (d) label since cuban missile crisis ... if the author is correct in this opinion (as all written is normally opinion) am of the opinion this too might be a ruse. So many ruses ... so little time, which if one adds a capital ‘T’ to time becomes a whole new set of misinformation with nearly no information which one should or could have faith or trust in. The fog exercises are becoming more numerous by all writers though, myself included, and I’m not a writer except here. Don’t want to call ruse but am beginning to lean in that direction.

I posted a similar idea on another thread about this article, and got no responses. Why would Obama back Sunnis if he is loyal to Iran? This make no sense.
