Obama denounces Assad in speech to UN (check out unbelievable statement)
dw ^ | 9-28-15

Posted on 09/28/2015 12:19:01 PM PDT by doug from upland

"There cannot be a return to the prewar status quo. Let's remember how this started. Assad reacted to peaceful protests by escalating repression and killing that in turn created the environment for the current strife."

"When a dictator slaughters tens of thousands of his own people, that is not one nation's internal affairs - it affects us all," Obama said, before turning his fire on IS.

"Likewise, when a terror group beheads captives, slaughters innocents and enslaves women… it is an assault on all our humanity."

The piece of crap of a leader voted against removing Hussein from power ------- a man responsible for not just tens of thousands.......he was responsible for the deaths of 1.3 million innocents. And he clearly let it be known to his CIA hander in prison that he planned to gear up his nuke program when the heat was off.

President Obama will likely bomb Bashar Assad’s regime in Syria. Here is the logic—and limits—for the president’s plan of attack.

Putin is the only man preventing ISIS from taking over the middle east?

We really are on the wrong side of history with Obama yet again.

This regime can’t end soon enough. He’s done more damage to America in 8 years than our enemies could have dreamed.

As I understand it, Assad is bad but better than ISIS. The Christians in Syria prefer Assad. The middle east is full of crazy leaders. ISIS must be stopped together with their cohorts Boko Haram and Al Qaeda.

Obama is a great pretender. You cannot trust anything he says. He adjusts his statements to fit his current audience. Look to what he does.

You get what you get with Assad- tin pot dictator in a saddam like strongman mold who oppresses everyone equally, yet squashes all radicalization. He’s a balance to the natural menace of islamists in the region.

Notice the entire ME was more stable with madmen like Hussein, Mubarak, and Gaddafi running the place than the current opposite.

IMHO, Soetoro is a Shiite muslim for causing all the instability and allowing Iran the upper hand.

Obama will demand the removal of ANY government that fails to slaughter Christians and Jews.

Like the Ottoman Empire before them. The muzzies seem to be OK if they have boot in their face, but let “the Arab Street” start picking its own governance and you get islamowhackos coming out of the woodwork...

You got that right. Him and all the Senators that voted for Cornyn’s Bill and TPA giving Obama more power and violated the Constitution. This vote could cost US lives. The Iranians will continue to sponsor terrorism and Americans will be killed. Only Senator Cotton voted no on Cornyn’s Bill. Only he will have no blood on his hands.

It’s the only thing that the tribal “cultures” in the Mid East understand and respect...a “madman” stronger than your “madman”.

We’re seeing the results of deposing such “madmen”...chaos, strife, war, vicious barbarity and death on an immeasureable scale.

And 0bama wants more.

I wish Obama would stay on the golf course or take another vacation!

I think it’s in the genes personally.

God says this about Arabs:

Genesis 16:11-12

“11 The angel of the Lord also said to her:

“You are now pregnant
and you will give birth to a son.
You shall name him Ishmael,a
for the Lord has heard of your misery.
12 He will be a wild donkey of a man;
his hand will be against everyone
and everyone’s hand against him,
and he will live in hostility
toward all his brothers.”

It’s so obvious that 0dunga wants to get rid of Assad so ISIS can have it that few see what is right in front of them.

Following in Jimmie Carter’s footsteps and his ousting of the Shah.
How did that turn out? /s

I agree, history proves that is very true.

Obama wants Assad to go. Putin wants Assad to stay. That being the case, it looks like Assad will be staying.
