What really frustrates me about this circus is, that when one considers the “best” outcome for the United States, it cannot be seen.
The best outcome IMO is let the United Nations handle it, and if they discredit themselves one more time, have the U.S. pull out of it.
The only wise thing to do is to allow them to continue to kill each other.
The enemy of your enemy is not your friend, sometimes they are convenient.
This isn't one of those times.
I can see it.
The attack on Syria is something that powerful forces want.
AIPAC which lobbies on behalf of Israel is for it which means Israel wants to do it.
The supporters of the “opposition” in Syria (Al-Quaeda and other elements) include Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
And of course there’s Barack Obama.
What endgame are these folks working towards? What backroom deals have been made?????
My thoughts would be that short term they are going after Syria to draw Iran into a fight so Iran could be taken down.
But later down the road I suspect the quid pro quo involves a Palestinian deal with Bibi Netanyahu giving away a lot of the store in exchange for the elimination of the Iranian threat.
