Russia Hits Back at U.S. Over Syria [BO is NOT feared or respected by World Leaders]
Wall Street Journal ^ | 6/14/13 | Paul Sonne

The Kremlin Friday dismissed as unconvincing evidence that U.S. officials provided of Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad's alleged use of chemical weapons and criticized Washington's decision to arm Syrian opposition fighters, but stopped short of threatening to deliver air-defense missiles to the Assad government in response.

A senior Kremlin official said Moscow is "not yet" discussing the delivery of the advanced air-defense system in the wake of the U.S. decision. Last month, Russian officials threatened to fulfill the 2010 contract for the S-300 missiles as a way to deter potential outside military intervention in the two-year-old Syrian civil war. Western powers and Israel have staunchly opposed the sale of the system.

...been saying this for years. Most world leaders thought Jimmy Carter was a fool and a ineffectual leader. He was, what we call a wimp. This President is far worse. The world shakes it's head and asks, “what were the American electorate thinking”? The US WAS a superpower. Now, under this President it has neither power or respect, pretty sad actually. The Axis of Evil are having a field day on the planet right now...

Its like Obama is trying to start a fight with Russia. Something that both American and Russian leaders have managed to avoid for decades.

After the recent scandals, who would even believe the decisive determination that the poison gas “red line” had been crossed? It’s just as easy to believe that this is being said because it seems politically convenient or necessary.

How can you trust anything that comes from this Administration?

Not so.

Obama is dragging his feet by continuing his flexible ‘leading from behind’ foreign policy.

Obama promised Putin that he would be “flexible,” and the blurry red line is a good example of that flexibility.

The only entity that considers Obama to have ANY leadership qualities is the gullible Liberal Agenda Media.

I also get that impression and I'm puzzled by it too. Why would he do that? Other than the fact that Moscow was formerly pretty aggressive in dealing with its problem Muslims, I can't see any reason that Obama would want to pick a fight with Russia.

Like sheep, the people will want revenge when an American is shot down by a Russian missile over Syria.

People here will be pissed about it but I’m not going to be angry at Russia for our “president” ordering Americans into a place we have no business being.

Why would he do that?

War has always been the easiest way to re-engineer society. Plus its a huge distraction from scandal and a collapsing economy.

Do you think Obama or any of these Elites care if millions die in WWIII? No. They would be throwing parties.

“The Russians play chess. Obama plays with his winkie.”

Obama “tiddles” with his “winkie” while the media “winks while Obama tiddles “as America burns!

Mine too. America's a shell of what it once was... and the Russians and Chinese are wise to that fact.

Re: Obama’s leadership.
Barry couldn't lead a band of randy gays through his bath house in Chicago with a wad of $100 bills that would choke a horse or a fistful of credit cards. (Hint: he doesn't know how to write a check because it wasn't covered in community organizing school.)

No respect for BO and none for Barack Obama? The first can be helped by personal deodorant. The second can be helped by impeachment.

Parties in Africa. I think BO is going there because he wants to find out which country is going to provide him with his new throne after he destroys the US.
