Are They Making OBama Look Like A Whimp On Purpose?

As you know the SYRIA crisis is now being downplayed by all nations.

To me Something is up, as Last night I had a dream they were going to bomb the HELL out of syria....and I think they are just trying to make OBAMA look like a whimp. TPTB must be laughing right now.

What do you think will happen? Most the time the US just does what is wants, and I fear that if they BOMB syria, the US will pay later on down the track, in the form of a terrorist attack or something much sinister.

Your thoughts?

    Hit with a barrage of volatile questions, wary of authority ready to punish anyone who violates protocol, I stand like a stunned deer in the headlights. Why did I take on this mission, I wonder. What mission, I ask myself, I don't have a mission. Confused, I retire to my quarters.

      Yep, l find it ironic that they say there is conclusive proof, that they killed 450, (the 1200 or more is inflated).

      The only proof is that someone who is highly organized gassed them.


      This could be the same people or hidden group in the US, that has caused major disasters to go to war.


      I won't mention the most obvious one, but a third party that tried to start the Korean conflict again, and could have gassed these people may be behind it?


      If, so, then a major war is inevitable, or as long as we rule ourselves!

      Syria may be open with chemical, but not nuclear, (or will develop nuclear power and deny any involvement in nuclear arms) so it may still happen, but for different reasons.

    We need to send Congress about 500 American Heritage dictionaries so they can all look up the word "sovereign". Might make a few things clear to the yahoos that don't understand constituent disapproval.

    Regarding the retaliation, like celente said? I have been saying that for DECADES! History proved me right at every term, but what do I know?

    As for who is making him look that way? He put HIMSELF and the US in an untenable position. Since it became clear that he would be held to task for it, he asked, as is required, and they are apparently listening to constituents. So don't blame others for THIS!

      Ya know, at one point I considered asking Thomas to create a substitution rule that would change "ICSM" to "Steve's trying to be political again." The extra Ss show why it was a bad idea.

      Every time you use that acronym, you throw the folks who know the pattern into a mode where the thing they're thinking of is the sort of political discussion that isn't allowed here. That's like putting booze in a recovering alcoholic's coffee.

      Are you that unaware of what you're doing? Or can you simply not resist the urge to create friction?

        I'm just saying there is more to the story. Actually, I'm showing restraint. BTW I WAS going to offer a solution to the war that satisfies everything about the war, but you would probably ban me for its implication, so I didn't.

                        True, your country is going to war with all the little crackpot dictator country's that have oil, to install Democracy, (or try to).

                        But doing so in a democratic way, not the we want your country and will invade strategy.

                        It is quite amazing that America only needs a flimsy excuse and they can invade and knockoff another dictator.

                        True they are not making that country their own, but getting close to it.


                        I bet if China for example did the same, they would ignore it!

                        Why, because China's army's are 3 million, or the same as US forces.


                        America could, (with this strategy) invade and conquer or instill a puppet democracy on every dodgy country on the planet.

                        But the Syrian president only needs one long range nuclear weapon buried in Russia's forests, and it could get nasty.

    Saudi Arabia provided gas to the rebels for this purpose, for a pretense to attack Syria.

    400,000 people died in Uganda last month apparently, but a gas attack that killed 400 is what needs to be stopped.

              Marxists and fascists are not really on opposite ends of the political spectrum. They are both on the totalitarian side. On the other end of the spectrum is freedom.

              If you're still looking at a "left vs right" labeling, then yes it's on the opposite side. But most people by now know that left and right are virtually one and the same.

                Yeah, I got that Thom, but it wasn't "on the other side of the coin" since your example didn't show people praising or defending him for two things that he couldn't possibly be at the same time. Your point was just that people support him.
