“U.S. approaches allies as it tries to boost the rebels, including with possible military aid.”
“The administration said last week it was rethinking its opposition to arming the rebels . . .”
“. . . noting that the U.S.’s main concern is the use of chemical weapons by Assad.”
These statements are all from the Associated Press which makes anyone who knows what is actually happening in the real world wonder who the Associated Press is associated with as they continue spewing this meaningless banter.
Let Tubularsock clear up any doubt about this entire Syrian mess. It’s pretty simple really.
The U.S. doesn’t like Iran and Syria has the support of Iran.
Iran and Syria don’t like Israel and the U.S. supports Israel.
The U.S. has been involved it supplying and training al Qaeda going back to Ronald Reagan.
Funny side note: The U.S. supplied and trained Bin Laden and his boys so they would attack the Soviets in Afghanistan. They ended up attacking us …….. remember.
Al Qaeda is at the center of the “rebels” who are attacking Assad and attempting to topple his government. So the idea that Obama is “rethinking the opposition to arming the rebels” is ridicules. The question really is, will we ever stop arming them.
The U.S. wants to topple Assad so as to weaken Iran’s presence in the Middle East.
The U.S. and Israel both are frightened about Iran building a nuclear bomb.
Funny side note: Back when Dick Cheney was running Haliburton they sold nuclear components to Iran. That is where Iran got its ability to build its nuclear power plant and its ability for making a nuclear bomb. These components were banned from being sold to Iran by a U.S. embargo but Dick went ahead and sold them anyway. No …….. neither he or Haliburton were held accountable.
Iran wants a nuclear bomb to protect itself from the U.S. and Israel. And you really can’t blame them. The U.S. and Israel are wacko-crazies!
ENTER CHEMICAL WEAPONS (a-la Saddam Hussein)
Funny side note: It was Ronald Reagan who sold Saddam Hussein the chemicals that were used to make weapons. (Have you noticed a recurring theme?)
And now it has been revealed that it was the U.S. under the contract of a private contractor who trained the “rebels” in the use of chemical weapons and IT WAS THE REBELS THAT USED CHEMICAL WEAPONS NOT THE ASSAD GOVERNMENT! This is what former war crimes prosecutor Carla Del Ponte has discovered and she and fellow members of a four-member U.N. human rights panel have indicated.
And still the U.S. is “. . . saying it’s highly likely that the Assad regime, and not the rebels, has been behind any chemical weapons use in Syria.” (Obama via Bush playbook)
So here is the bottom line: When the next inspired FBI/CIA terrorist attack occurs in the United States and the new found terrorist use their training in the use of chemical weapons to explode a sarin laced bomb ……… don’t even act surprised.

I’m either a little obtuse or a little confused – I thought WE attacked us – not devilish Bin Laden – or maybe since we supported him then really we did really attack us. Yeah, I know , it does give me a little vertigo to try and comprehend all this ! And yes I agree, all against Iran and long live Israel ….

Dearing thank you once again for taking the time to comment. Obtuse you’re not but being confused wouldn’t be a surprising thing to be in discussing bin and the boys. I guess Tubularsock has to define his terms and time periods much better in order to dodge one, such as yourself, who is paying attention. Way back in 1998 bin and the boys decided to bomb the U.S. embassies in Tanzania and Kenya. And like any good al Qaeda operative they did. The U.S. considered that an attack on the U.S.
Now if the U.S. had bombed, say the Chinese Embassy in Baghdad which we did, well that was a mistake. You certainly see the difference.
And then you throw in the attack on the USS Cole in 2000 by bin and the boys and you can see that there was a pattern emerging. So bin and the boys “attacked” the U.S.
But it was 911 that was an INSIDE JOB and maybe that is where the confusion came from.
