Obama owns Harry Reid, who owns the Senate, so if Obama wants to help the Muslim rebels that is what will happen. He has already been caught running guns to them, got some people killed over it.

Obama is a strategic part of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Every good Hitler needs a SA. The Muslim Caliphate is the violent fall guy for the New World Order pukes. When they are done terrorizing the people into submission, they will be vaporized in nuclear fires so the NWO pukes can be the hero.

Then they will give their power over to a super leader...

“Obama is a strategic part of the Muslim Brotherhood.”
That’s right. The MB gave up OBL in exchange for control of the ME. They’re having trouble with Syria so BHO is going to use our military to open the way. It will be interesting to see what deal he made with Putin to allow this.

“French troops Syria” or “British troops Syria”
The Brits and French are going just to make it look NATO and for practice. We’ll do the heavy lifting.

What Putin needs to do is expose Obama’s perfidy in a reverse of the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Russian Ambassador to the UN takes recon photos of ex-Libya arms being unloaded in Turkey. They display photos of CIA personnel teaching New Syrian Army troops how to load, prepare, and fire chemical-tipped weapons in Turkey for deployment in Syria against Syrians. THAT could slam the brakes on World War III that Barry and Hillary are orchestrating.

If they send the 75,000 military in there to secure the chemical weapons, most of those will return with nerve disorders.

Speculated earlier in the year that Obama would let Putin complete his invasion of Georgia, but that seems like a weak deal now. Putin will want much more. Iran is more or less solid right now. The US has pulled many of its assets out of the Persian Gulf to positions off the Syrian coast. So if Iran wants Iraq, they could take it fairly easy now. The question is, what will Putin want.

Russian and US talks have failed.

Syria fighting rages as diplomats fail

In Dublin, talks among US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, her Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov and UN peace envoy Lakhdar Brahimi failed to make any major decisions.

Brahimi said all three agreed the situation in Syria was "very, very, very bad".

Look up RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT. We’re going in, but why? Look up THE INTERNATIONAL CRISIS GROUP. See who is on their board. George Soros. This guy is a genius. He runs several countries while only costing him a few billion dollars. He gets us to do his dirty work by buying a few politicians. Poor Syria. They are the battleground over oil.

Actually, the US and NATO are fighting a proxy war for their masters. The House of Saud. Just read the Saudi editorial below. And then ask yourself, is the US/NATO really running this show ?

In a con game, the Grifter will often let the Marks believe that they are in charge. The Grifter plays on people’s arrogance and ignorance and naïveté. The Saudis are cutthroat when it comes to oil, but I wouldn’t bet much on their smarts in international affairs.

In a post nuclear age, a World War has no Grifters and no Marks. There will be no winners.

Actually, given the US control of the Western World after WWII, the winner of WWIII runs the table: they get to create the ‘new reality’, and if they’re ruthless, it could last a very, very long time, think thousand year timeframe.

Sometimes I think this entire Sarin gas being mixed by Assad is just an excuse to get us involved. After all the story broke from NBC news.
