I’m pretty sure Michelle is the one that does the poking in that family.
Once again Obama is riding in the “Bitch” seat.
Given the dialogue of these ‘rebel’s it sounds like they are more Jihadi, than rebel.

Face-to-face with Abu Sakkar, Syria’s ‘heart-eating cannibal’
By Paul Wood BBC News, Syria
5 July 2013
It sounded like the most far-fetched propaganda claim - a Syrian rebel commander who cut out the heart of a fallen enemy soldier, and ate it before a cheering crowd of his men.
The story turned out to be true in its most important aspect - a ritual demonstration of cannibalism - though when I met the commander, Abu Sakkar, in Syria last week, he seemed hazy on the details.
“I really don’t remember,” he says, when I ask if it was the man’s heart, as reported at the time, or liver, or a piece of lung, as a doctor who saw the video said. He goes on: “I didn’t bite into it. I just held it for show.”
The video says otherwise. It is one of the most gruesome to emerge from Syria’s civil war. In it, Abu Sakkar stands over an enemy corpse, slicing into the flesh.
“It looks like you’re carving him a Valentine’s heart,” says one of his men, raucously. Abu Sakkar picks up a bloody handful of something and declares: “We will eat your hearts and your livers you soldiers of Bashar the dog.”
Then he brings his hand up to his mouth and his lips close around whatever he is holding. At the time the video was released, in May, we rang him and he confirmed to us that he had indeed taken a ritual bite (of a piece of lung, he said).
Now, meeting him face-to-face, he seems a bit more circumspect, though his anger builds when I ask why he carried out this depraved act.
“I didn’t want to do this. I had to,” he tells me. “We have to terrify the enemy, humiliate them, just as they do to us. Now, they won’t dare be wherever Abu Sakkar is.”
In a YouTube video from June 2011, Abu Sakkar can be seen at the front of a crowd waving olive branches to greet deserting army officers. He took up arms against the regime, one of the first to join a new organisation called the Free Syrian Army (FSA).
The ONLY sane response to this fiasco has been Donald Trump’s. The rest are either stupid, lying, or fools.
There is no Russian term for ROE.
Ask the Chechens about Russian Rules of Engagement.
Yup, we funded and trained the “moderate terrorists.”
Didn’t John McCain get his picture taken with these kind of people? What kept them from using him as practice? Is McCain a covert Mussie terrorist?
The sane reaction would have been to treat Assad as a moderate he was (his dad was the butcher Assad, Jr is a stand in) - promise him an orderly transition and give him some free hand to make sure Syria does not go jihadi. Something other than - what Obama did.
So now civilian causalities are to be considered when Russia does it against these muslims who we are finding.
CIA backed moderate rebels are head loppers?
Shocking!
If by “we” you mean the Lesser of two evils congress, then yes.
I’m getting a big bucket of popcorn ready. Ivan v. Camel humpers.
We trained them to behead people? Do that to a Russian and watch the fireworks.
"Scorched earth" is as close as I can think of. The Russians invented it I think. I mean Napoleon could not believe the Russian would burn their own villages and capital as he advanced on them - who does that? Right?
“There is no Russian term for ROE.”
Sure there is, it’s called stupidity.
But we were told they were moderates. PFFTTT
They are all as bad as each other and it seems this administration has no idea what to do. Who do we talk to, who do we want in power, I hope not these lunatics who want to cut heads off?
Imagine if we had a decent non biased media? Yea I know it’s hard to, but if we did they would be ripping this white house apart right now over their failed foreign policy.
All ISIS corpses were Free Syrian Army.
Did the Russians bomb the milk factory too? Can’t forget the milk factory. What about the babies in incubators?
We trained them to behead people? - No, I think that is culturally learned.
