Kerry Was So Bad At Negotiating In Syria, He Wasn’t Invited To The Latest Talks

The whole point of the Syrian Civil War was a natural gas pipeline. The Saudis and Qataris want to sell their natural gas to Europe. The best way to move gas is by pipeline, and they needed transit rights through Syria to do it. Syria is and has long been a Soviet/Russian client state. The Russians don't want that pipeline run because they currently have a virtual monopoly on natural gas supplies to Europe. So they told Assad to refuse transit rights.

In order to get their pipeline, the Saudis ginned up the uprising to topple Assad and install their own government. From that decision and struggle between the Saudis/Qataris and the Russians through their Syrian proxies has come much suffering for the Syrian people.

The Saudis and Qataris use their petrodollars to buy American policy through ideologues like 0bama, crooks like Clinton, and idiots like Kerry. They all supported the "uprising" and "moderate rebels," all in accordance with the wishes of their Saudi masters. I would note that Bush 43 was in their pocket on this, too.

By the way, the photo of the ISIS truck convoy tells all. Where did the ISIS fighters come across a fleet of brand new identical Toyota trucks for their military convoy? Is there a Toyota dealership in Mosul or Aleppo we didn't know about? Or maybe it was Gulf Oil money, and American aquiescence. 0bama was never serious about attacking ISIS, because ISIS was created by the same people (Saudis) who are directing American foreign policy.

Dear US Oligarchs,

Goodbye.

Why the long face, John?

Then, only the UN will be left out - my dreams are that he will, in time to come - kick the UN out of the US
Yes, the UN from everything I can see regarding its operations is an anti-American organization. I believe Trump should completely restructure our country’s affiliation with that organization, and basically defund all of its political activities.

But, but, he served in F’n Vietnam !

Don’t they know he’s a close personal friend of James Taylor?

For all intents and purposes, the U.S. military in the Middle East is nothing more than a mercenary force that has been deployed on behalf of these foreign interests. Once you understand this, then it’s easy to see right through these stupid propaganda campaigns aimed at getting the American public to support these foreign military ventures.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
And this is why I advise my children, their friends, and my grandchildren to stay away from the military unless our country is directly attacked or threatened with imminent attack by some foreign power capable of actually doing it.

To Kerry, this is a huge success. Hard work, giving away billions in tax dollars and insuring NO seat at the table. Success !

Know I know more about what the hell is going on over there than I could have ever learned by relying upon the fools in the mainstream news media. Thank you for a superb and succinct presentation of the facts.
