I think Putin sent him a clear message that if you arm the rebels be prepared, as we will destroy them openly.
What does this all mean? It means that we have a weak cowardly president who in a very short period of time, probably days, will be challenging Obama openly in the press on the battle field.
Obama will not fight, he will back down...as he's trying to do now. Putin will push the envelope. Obama will then try some covert maneuver and be squashed.
It could be a real game changer. Bottom line..Assad remains in power...Hezbollah strengthened and the threat of war with Isreal.
Meantime Iran pursuex their nuclear weapons, and we're mired in Afghanistan.

Sorry for the mis speak.
Obama has sided with Al Qaeda
At the same time, the US and Russia each arming a side in Syria could be the start of a World War 3, since there is already turmoil in much of the Middle East.
There is no moral position than could draw us into this.
This is what happens when people vote incompetents into office with the hopes that they’ll loot the public treasury for them.
Things have changed a bit since this was written by CK. He is getting his wish. We will help Al Qaeda.
Good. Assad as bad as he is beats Al-Qaeda 7 days a week.
The answer to your quandry is in the headline. You don’t REALLY expect him to REALLY do anything to oppose his own team, do you? 1st clue: He has muzzie brotherhood people on his team right IN the White Hut. I can’t wait to see what kind of phoney-baloney “opposition” he sends over there; and how many pretzels the media twist themselves into, trying to make Obunga look good, and make the “aid” he sends look like it amounts to a fart in a tornado!
we want Assad in power, with his secular government.
We do not want the Islamists in power, although obama might
So what?
FTR Charles is for domestic disarmament of Americans and he is pro-armament of radical muslims. Freaking evil
And so, we, the USA, are going head-to-head with Russia and China over the Syrian civil war. What’s wrong with this picture.
What does the US gain? Both sides are declared enemies of the US. I don’t give a tinkersdamn about Russia or China, but to butt heads with them over Syria is just plain stupid!!
Did the Muslim Brotherhood (CAIR) dictate this move to Obama’s regime to arm the AQ rebels and more? as they now appear to be dictating to the FBI and CIA on investigations?? (thinking of Mueller’s testimony in Congress Thursday)
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.
Seriously, unless sombody has a plan to protect the Christians there's nothing of interest there for us.
Maybe we should send McCain ~
The king of neocon commentary wants us in a pointless war?
Forget it.
Putin (Russians), the Chinese, The Iranians have defeated the USA and Obama. It is as simple as that!!! The Russians possess deadly anti-aircraft weapons that are effective and accurate. Should Obama move to a “no-fly-zone” policy, we will lose many American planes and fighter pilots. If Obama moves to arm the rebels (our terrorist enemies) in Syria, the Russians will support Assad in destroying the existing rebels. Face it folks.....Obama has lost the entire Middle East. Iraq is imploding, Afghanistan is lost, Libya, the love of Obama, is sending terrorists into Syria by the hundreds, if not, thousands. IMHO, which is probably right, Obama is supporting his Muslum Brotherhood brethren, more then he is protecting the USA!!! Just one man’s opinion. Fact: Russia has kicked out butt out of the Middle East, for all practical purposes. How’s tha “hope & change” working for you now, Americans???
Putin has a lot more to lose in Syria than we do. We should back out now.
Who cares what the President wants. It appears that John McCain and Bill Clinton are controlling US foreign policy now.
