How Putin is out-maneuvering Obama in Syria

The Stop-and-Go Syrian Peace Talks

In what has become a monthly ritual, the United Nations Security Council received a briefing on March 30th regarding the very dire humanitarian conditions in war-torn Syria. Stephen O’Brien, the Under Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, delivered the latest assessment. He noted as positive developments a respite in violence in some parts of the country since the cessation of hostilities came into effect one month ago, and some limited progress on access for the delivery of humanitarian aid to besieged and hard-to-reach areas. However, he said that many of the 4.6 million people in need “still remain outside our reach due to insecurity and obstructions by the parties.”

Syrian authorities are still throwing bureaucratic hurdles in the way of getting timely approvals for delivery of critical medical supplies, food, and other aid. The “daily misery” in the affected areas “shames us all,” O’Brien said.

Putin plays chess; Obama plays marbles.

Putin was a KGB colonel; Obama played Call of Duty.

‘nuff said.

First, it has never been established that Obama actually has a maneuver, or strategy, to fight any of the terrorists anywhere in the Middle East. He wants to import them all over Europe and America.

CoD debuted in 2003.

I really doubt Caliph Baraq has ever played it.

He plays Madden football with Reggie Love.

A 5-year old on a Big Wheel can outmaneuver Obama.

And Putin is not even breaking into a moistened forehead.

The Current Occupant, on the other hand, has perfumed the room with flop sweat.

And if ever you have been in the presence of that odor, you do not forget it. Almost as bad as being confined with a skunk. And very distinct from released intestinal gas.

Obama doesn’t care. His foreign policy is dedicated to weakening the Republic, and whatever looks like he is being outmaneuvered is just success.

Putin appears to be dating Wendi Deng, Rupert Murdoch’s ex-wife. Very interesting.

On the other hand Putin is supposedly out-maneuvering everyone all the time and yet the average yearly earnings in Russia are still ~$5800 before taxes. Doesn’t seem regular Russian is getting any benefit from all this out-maneuvering.
