Is 0bama pursuing a "Ceasefire" in Syria? What does that mean? (vanity)
Obama Speech on San Bernardino & ISIS Full Text Transcript ^ | 12/08/15 | Zeneta

You can watch the full 14 minute speech here.

At ~5:35

"Fourth, with American leadership, the international community has begun to establish a process — and timeline — to pursue ceasefires and a political resolution to the Syrian war. Doing so will allow the Syrian people and every country, including our allies, but also countries like Russia, to focus on the common goal of destroying ISIL — a group that threatens us all."

Ceasefires and a political resolution?

WTF?

This is what 0bama said and I have yet to hear anyone ask the White House about this.

Setting aside all of 0bama's other stupidity, why on earth would he say "Ceasefires and a political resolution?"

Both of these require recognition and to a certain extent legitimacy of our counter part in this war.

Is 0bama willing to negotiate with ISIS/ISIL whatever?

Does he really want to "pursue ceasefires and a political resolution to the Syrian war?"

Who are the other members of this "International Community" that are willing to "negotiate a ceasefire or Political solution?"

When you "negotiate" you, by default recognize their legitimacy and therefore elevate them.

Is this what 0bama is trying to do?

Commies ask for ceasefires when they’re losing.

Ceasefire in the ME only means time to rearm for the next round.

A “ceasefire” means ISIS keeps its territory and becomes a “nation” IMHO. Obama & his regime are pro-Islamist IMHO.

Ceasefire now that the Muslim invasion of Europe is complete. He could’ve stopped ISIS TWO YEARS AGO.

‘...why on earth would he say “Ceasefires and a political resolution?”’

Because he’s a lying political hack and phony with delusions of grandeur.

Yeah, I believe he was probably referring to the Russians, who are also fighting against the Syrian rebels. The Russkies must be winning.

The political solution is just another attempt at getting Assad to resign, and be replaced after an election.

It means Obama wants Russia to stop bombing “our” jihadis. And for ISIS to stand fast and consolidate the positions they currently hold.

He sure looks unhappy.

Wonder if that’s because he got tipped off that smoking gun email about Benghazi was about to be made public today.

He is ‘pursuing the process’...which is bureaucrat speak to make it look like they are doing something when they are diddling around.

“Is 0bama willing to negotiate with ISIS/ISIL whatever?”

He’s obviously not talking about that, because he talks about a ceasefire allowing them to pursue ISIS in the next sentence. I think he is talking about a ceasefire between the Syrian government and the various rebel groups that are fighting it.

Of course, many of those rebel groups are allies of ISIS, so, as policy, it still doesn’t make any sense.
