Obama claims Putin War in Syria is a sign of weakness


Posted: Oct 9, 2015

President tells CBS's Steve Kroft in interview previewed on-air Friday that Russian President Vladimir Putin's moves into Syria are out of weakness, not strength US has abandoned $500 million to train and arm rebels fighting to remove Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad from power 'He's moved troops into Syria, for one. He's got people on the ground,' Kroft said. 'Two, the Russians are conducting military operations in the Middle East for the first time since World War II... Bombing the people we are supporting.' 'He's challenging your leadership, Mr. President. He's challenging your leadership.' Obama replied, 'So that's leading, Steve?' 'Rather than being able to count on their support and maintain the base they had in Syria, which they've had for a long time, Mr. Putin now is devoting- his own troops, his own military, just to barely hold together by a thread his sole ally.' 'Steve, I got to tell you, if you think that running your economy into the ground and having to send troops in, in order to prop up your only ally is leadership, then we've got a different definition of leadership.' ;

The silly propaganda from the White House is as bad as the - stuff they feed their people in North Korea.

Obrainless should go back to community organizing, or did he fail at that, too?

To quote a line from a recent episode of Homeland, - "What foreign policy?"

Quinn, the CIA operative explains jihadists strategy is based on centuries-old Islamic doctrine to form a Caliphate. He also questions whether or not the US has any real strategy to combat the enemy threat doctrine.

Art imitating life.

His solution was 200,000 American troops - on the ground

To provide security and support for an equal number of doctors and elementary school teachers.

govt guy: "That's not going to happen...What else would make a difference?"

Quinn: "Hit reset -- pound Raqqah (Syria) into a parking lot."

His description of the gathering in Raqqah and their goals is frightening but it's hardly Obama's fault that the US military can't sell that. I guess if it were right after 911 and 911 had been perpetrated by Syria we would do it, but I just don't see the intestinal fortitude for that kind of military presence, do you?

It may be art imitating life, but it may also be just a TV show using dramatic license, hard to tell. I really hope it is just drama frankly.

We call most of the news today agitprop, - Russian for agitation and

propaganda. Hard to know what to believe anymore, especially from this White House.

I wish people would tell him to just shut up because it's making it obvious - how uneducated he is - and clueless

You would think that a normal person would realize how stupid they sound. But noooooo...he just likes to just hear himself talk no mater how ignorant he sounds.

Dem. Senator Tim Kaine things the Obama administration's - Syria strategy is a joke, it's not

Ignoring it and hoping for the best is not a "strategy.”
