Well there's a mind-fuck!
Anybody with a moderate IQ who has been following the US-engineered shit-show in Syria has figured out long ago that ISIS is the meat and potatoes of the Syrian opposition.
So we're going to crush them and arm them at the same time?
Alrighty then!
...and now we've got perpetual war-monger Senator McCain on our CNN screens screaming about how Obama's latest bon-bons to the war profiteers are not nearly enough...
Well, that part is probably right.
The Exxon/Carlyle/ Eric Prince crowd will never think American war-mongering is mongering enough war...
The calibre of arguments on display this evening is discouraging indeed. America is a bankrupt nation that cannot afford to educate her children or provide health care to her suffering.
But it looks like the American taxpayer is gonna be shelling out another trillion to keep the Arab masses pissed off...
...and the warmongers rich!

Susan Rice claims US still supporting moderate Syrian rebel
Four days after a coalition of Syrian rebel groups rejected the leadership of the US sponsored Syrian National Coalition, Susan Rice appeared on Fareed Zakaria's show on CNN to assure the American public that the US continues to support the moderate rebel in Syria.
Falling Downs field operatives tracked down the moderate rebel, Captain Abdul Barakat of Battalion One of the Free Syrian Army, at the Best Western in Istanbul for a Q & A.
FD: Captain Barakat, how is it you are able to fight Assad from your suite at the Best Western in Istanbul?
AB: I am temporarily on furlough, a little bit of R and R, and much needed, I must say.
FD: So you maintain command of your troops in the First Battalion from your command centre here?
AB: What troops? It's not called the First Battalion, it's Battalion One, because it has one guy. Me. Battalion Two had two guys but they defected to the Islamists.
FD: So when were you last in your country?
AB: I was in my country just last week.
FD: Where in Syria were you, and what was the situation on the ground?
AB: Syria? I wasn't in Syria, I was in my country. I live in London. Situation on the ground is tense. That Cameron is an idiot, worse than Blair.
FD: Oh... so when were you last in Syria?
AB: I flew in with Senator McCain a couple of months ago for a photo op. That's me there in the picture, right behind the Senator.
FD: So... do you actually have any fighters on the ground in Syria?
AB: Of course! We are all brothers united against Assad... every fighter is my brother!
FD: But do you command any of them?
AB: This the problem from the lack of support from USA. We need heavy weapons. Tanks and drones too, and no-fly zone across country. If Americans step up support, maybe nice shock and awe from Hellfire missiles and Pavemaster on Assad for a few months, then I have command in Syria, but America shameful for lack of help for Syrian freedom fighters. All they supporting now is State Department pay bill at Best Western, but Abdul left to fend for self on bar fridge tab.
FD: Well good luck to you, Captain Barakat, and thank you for your time.

Tears for Hollande
France 24 has a bizarre interview with Senator-for-war John McCain this morning, in which he laments the tragic turn events in Syria have taken.
McCain is deeply disappointed that the war he could already taste mere days ago has been snatched away by the perfidy of that punk Putin. In the course of his remarks McCain uncorks this whopper, "All of us seek a peaceful, non-violent resolution to this conflict."
Of course we do, John...
McCain expresses concern for the predicament that French President Francois Hollande now finds himself in. Already through the floor in polling numbers, Hollande must have thought there was nothing to lose when he stepped forward so conspicuously as the only US ally other than Israel to back military action against Syria.
It was perhaps his last best chance at those spurs his spiritual guide BHL has promised him.

The "credibility" of the USA
I was listening to Senator McCain pontificate on the grave disservice the first black president is doing to the nation by not invading Syria right away.
According to war monger #1, Obama is "undermining the credibility" of the US.
Where in the world does the Senator imagine that America retains any credibility?
The Saudi's have been going behind Uncle Sam's back to pursue their own agenda.
Ditto Qatar and the Gulf gang.
Nobody trusts Obama in the Holy Land.
The Generals in Egypt thumb their nose at America even as they keep taking the billions in aid.
India? Pakistan? China? Does any serious person believe America still has clout over there?
As for Russia, Putin's contempt for Obama is almost palpable, and no wonder.
Everybody in Russia understands who runs Russia.
Everybody in America knows Obama doesn't run America, let alone anything else.
Here is the list of who still believes in America's credibility;

- the Free Syrian Army

The 24 hours that saved Assad and sunk Obama
This is the tits-up moment for war-monger number one, Senator John McCain.
John's been lobbying for war with Syria for the last two years.
All of America's besties are busy on Saturday night.
Canada is scheduled for a shampoo and curl.
The Brits have let the democracy cat out of the bag and seem to be scaling down the war rhetoric in favour of the will of the people.
The only NATO ally still on board is Francois Hollande. The poor devil is determined to win his spurs one way or another. Mali didn't quite do it, so he has been hoping for a second chance.
And of course the only democracy in the middle east would dearly love to see an all-out assault on the people of the towel, but the Likud crowd must be beyond despairing that such a thing is going to happen this time around.
Maybe even a few of the smarty-pants know-it-alls around Obama have concluded that dumping Assad isn't worth risking WW III.
So carry on with the whatever, Mr. Assad; we were just joking around with that "red line" shit.
Twenty-four hours ago, the Nations of Virtue were coordinating their plans to annihilate Syria.
Tonight they're not.
There is hope for humanity.
