Kerry Draws Red Line, Says Syria Better Start Removing Assad By Aug 1

Secretary of State John Kerry just gave Syria a hard deadline for starting the political transition to get rid of Syrian President Bashar Assad: Aug. 1.

Kerry told reporters Tuesday if Syria doesn’t begin the process of removing Assad by Aug. 1, there will be serious consequences, The Associated Press reports.

“If Assad does not adhere to this, there will clearly be repercussions,” Kerry said. “One of them may be the total destruction of the cease-fire and then go back to war. I don’t think Russia wants that. I don’t think Assad is going to benefit from that. There may be even other repercussions being discussed. That is for the future.”

Oh yeah! Ketchup Boy and Barry Behind are pulling on their lingerie and getting ready with the rough stuff! Vlad and the mullahs are sweating bullets.

Really, this type of thing is beyond ridiculous.

Then he needs to explain to us why Assad needs to be overthrown.

“Because the Saudis say so”, just doesn’t cut it.

The Russians are deeply embedded in Syria....

So that means we are going to fight the Russians?

Kerry gets more stupid every day.

I told you...

This summer is going to be a crap storm, as the muslim brotherhood and their leader (Obama) see their last chances at acquiring more power fading with Obama- especially if they see a Trump win coming

And if Assad is NOT removed, what is the next move? Or IS there is a “next move”?

Red lines drawn in the sand tend to disappear rather quickly.

Hmmm. I wonder if a limited hot war with the Russian Federation and Syria is in the works to jam the election.

How about put Kerry in the dock for war crimes instead? Like Nuremburg. Gallows and all.

I’ve always been against our involvement there. All fighting factions are bad. It seems that in a lot of countries in the Middle East, only a cruel tyrant can keep things under control. Red line? Draw one around Syria and don’t let anyone out.

Obama and Kerry must have just received a new tanker full of red paint from China.

Obama used up the last tanker full redrawing red lines in the Ukraine and Syria a couple of years ago.

Kerry would just change the date to Aug 2. Assad might have Putin in his corner, but Kerry has a pencil with an eraser on his side.

In other words, Barky & “Vietnam” Kerry see a Trump Presidency becoming more of a reality, so they are willing to start a war with Russia.

I was hoping that I was only being paranoid about Obama finding a way to “postpone” the election because of an emergency. With this idiotic statement by Kerry, it appears that Barky & his thugs are actually willing to start WW3 to stop the election.

The evil of this regime knows no bounds.
