Something 'very fishy' about this Syria thing [Vanity]
September 03, 2013 | GeorgeWashingtonsGhost

Posted on 09/03/2013 11:45:11 AM PDT by GeorgeWashingtonsGhost

I've got that same funny feeling about Obama's Syria threat that I've had during other events in recent months.

Right now we're seeing a highly visible 'public hearing' over the issue of Syria.. Why not another IRS scandal hearing, or Benghazi hearing or another hearing on the DOJ spying on Fox news? Obama and Congress seem to have whipped up a Syria hearing rather quickly, so what's the problem with doing so on these other issues? I smell a RAT!

Why does Obama want to start a war with Syria and possibly the entire region? What is the REAL reason for him doing this? I'm not sure, but I DO know that a military strike will bury just about every other news item for the next few weeks and I feel THAT is what this is all about.

In the next few weeks the Muslim Brotherhood will be on trial in Egypt. There's been talk that Obama is a Muslim Brotherhood MEMBER. Is THAT what Obama is trying to bury in the news? Or perhaps that Benghazi was a hostage-taking of Stevens planned by Hillary, so as to give Obama a reason to release the Blind Sheik to the MB? Why did McCain and Graham fly to Egypt to meet with the MB??? Was there a pay off made to keep them silent about Obama's involvement with them, or possibly his involvement in the 'hostage-taking gone bad' in Benghazi?

Something is very fishy about this Syria thing. Something's not right. Just as Obama called for Mubarak to step down for the MB to take his place, Obama is now asking Assad to step down for Al Qaeda to take his place?

We're looking at some serious 'wag the dog' here, folks. The GOP is on board with Obama although there is little to no evidence Assad is responsible for the chemical attack. We're being told there's no doubt chemical weapons were used, BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN ASSAD IS THE ONE WHO DISPERSED THEM!!! It is entirely possible that those (Al Qaeda) who rip the hearts out of their enemy and EAT them would kill their own to get Obama to fight their war for them!!!

Obama supporting the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt is something NO CHRISTIAN PRESIDENT WOULD DO. The Muslim Brotherhood has torched numerous Coptic Christian churches to the ground and Obama has said NOTHING about this. The culprits are the ones he's funded and supported. Asking the man who has honored a peace treaty with Israel to STEP DOWN is something NO CHRISTIAN PRESIDENT WOULD DO.

Suddenly, we are expected to believe that Obama's motives are just for his desired action in Syria? Based on his FAILURES in Egypt, Libya and elsewhere.. Hell no, and HELL NO!!

The British and the German and the French and the Israeli intelligence services have all said that Assad did it based on the information they have collected. I don't blame you for being skeptical about the NSA or the CIA, but not all those foreign services as well.

Much of what you say is true, and very worrisome.

But, all of that aside, it is only recently that Obama, Rice, and H. Clinton, lied to us in the most baldfaced manner that it was an internet video that motivated events in Benghazi. Obama even broadcast that lie in a speech to the UN.

Even if we can’t get at the truth behind Benghazi right now, how can anyone believe anything that comes out of his mouth, or from the rest of the leadership agreeing with him?

And, although we support out troops, how can we be behind a President who is quite likely to be misusing them for his own secret ends?

If America is involved in something, then something shady is going on, and that is all there is to it.

If Al Qaeda was taking over here, I’m not sure I would see using chems as a bad thing either. But if we are winning they way they say Assad is, not sure why I would feel the need. I think maybe the rebels did something with them first and he retaliated in kind myself.

Aww come on. You answered your own question in the vanity you posted. It is indeed a wag the dog scenario.

Lather, Rinse, Repeat.

Obammie’s answer to every scandal or crisis is to create a new and different crisis to divert attention away from his previous scandal. Read Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. Its Obammie’s modus operandi.

Whats going on in Syria is no worse than the genocide ongoing in Egypt. Except there its CHRISTIANS being slaughtered. So - no big deal, right?

Also of note is that Hillary detached herself just shortly
before this particular State Department crisis & failure.

Just an observation.

No one can know but I highly suspect this is #3927 in his play book on How to Destroy America. Everything he has touched over the past 5 years has withered and turned into a rotting monster. Look at every scandal, the economy, health care, employment and hours being cut, food an agriculture, housing, now he’s messing with college education, he’s lost us allies, we’ve lost countless freedoms and most importantly privacy, he’s cost us lives of civilians by is open door border policies, he’s cost the lives of our troops, he’s corrupted our local police and made us afraid of our military, we’re frightened of our out of control government, etc. It’s all been part of the plan.

I'm not sure I want to be in the "we" part of either side of the issue. Assad or the rebels, there isn't a bit of difference between the two. No matter which side wins, the U.S. loses.

Nothing like a war to distract from a lethargic economy, tenuous health care reform, and at least four scandals.

Foreign wars are an old political ploy for getting the people’s attention off of the local problems.

Anyone remember the Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964, when N. Vietnamese Patrol boats allegedly attacked a USN intelligence gathering ship?

LBJ used this supposed incident to get Congress’s approval to
attack N. Vietnam. It turned out it never happened. But it led to 8 years of our involvement in Vietnam and 58K names on the Vietnam Memorial in Wash. D.C.

Because it worked before, mass graves of Muslims in Serbia (that were empty), the Tonkin Gulf incident (that wasn't), the neutral passenger Lusitania (that was carrying munitions), it never ends.

There is a lot more to this Syria debacle than what meets the eye or goes into the ear. I will believe until proved otherwise that big money is involved and that involves oil and gold on the part of known nefarious persons.
