'General' Obama does a Custer, acts like an insecure adolescent and refuses to admit he screwed up (Image Source)
On Wednesday 17 February (unremarked by mainstream media in Europe and the USA), President Obama appeared to admit there is no chance of victory for the 'Syrian opposition' (i.e. Obama's beloved 'moderate rebels', the same people who earlier in the conflict were ripping vital organs from the still warm corpses of Assad supporters and Syrian Christians and noshing them, posting videos of the feast on YouTube) according to White House and Pentagin sources Obama thinks the
Speaking at the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) conference in California on Wednesday, the US president was asked by Bloomberg reporter Toluse Olorunnipa whether he had been "outfoxed" by Russia's President Putin in Syria (to which the only honest answer would be, "Yes, totally.". Russia had managed not only to avoid getting caught in a quagmire (contrary to US expectations), but had succeeded in bolstering the Syrian government, whose army has been making major advances around Aleppo, while US-backed rebels have been on the retreat, Olorunnipa continued.
Put on the back foot, Obama blustered, insisting that actually, Russia would "absolutely" get involved in a quagmire, and that "about three-quarters of [Syria]…still under control of folks other than Assad." The President failed to mention or more likely just does not know that most of the rebel controlled territory is sparsely populated, and that about 80% of Syria's population is in areas controlled by the Assad regime.
More importantly, the president conceded that "yes, Russia has a major military. Obviously, a bunch of rebels are not going to be able to compete with the hardware of the second-most powerful military in the world."
WHAT! Not even with all the hardware and money the USA has thrown at them in a bid to depose Assad without and American bodies showing up on YouTube?
As a result of this, Obama suggested, "the only way to do that is to bring some sort of political transition."
Analyzing the president's words, Svobodnaya Pressa columnist Andrei Ivanov remarked that Moscow, for its part, has always been in favor of a peaceful settlement and that in fact, "it is the opposition which has disrupted the peace talks, by setting impossible demands, including that Bashar Assad step down."
"However," the journalist added, "Obama's words do mark an interesting change of rhetoric. Earlier, Washington had insisted that the opposition fighters they were preparing would simultaneously fight both the terrorists and overthrow Assad.
It is surprising that after his track record of failure, fuck up and total embarrassment (remember that time he tried to suck the King of Saudi Arabia's cock?) there are still a few people out there who think he's The Obamessiah. One tuned up in the comments thread on the site where I found my source info for this site:
Joseph Lobianco
President Obama wasn't "outfoxed" by Russia President Putin. The U.S.A. received no United Nation mandate to attack Syria. United Nation S. C. Resolution 2249 gave no country the right to bomb Syria. The U.S.A. Congress approves wars through a declaration of war. President Obama sought Congressional approval for military intervention in Syria and they voted NO. Obama was taught Constitutional law at Harvard law school. President Obama, is the first president since Frankin D. Roosevelt, to followed the Constitution.
To which I felt I had to reply:
Ian Thorpe ·
Your day job is stand up comedian, right?
Others took up the cause:
Terry Ross · Coventry, United Kingdom
Even the NYT admitted the CIA has been involved with supplying the terrorists for several years. The number of bombing attacks within Syria by the US has been made public on Pentagon website. There is no point trying to deny any of this Joseph.
Karl Bike
They didn't recieve a UN mandate to attack Iraq either but they did anyway in any case Syria is a Sovereign nation that happen to ask Russia for help so only they had a right to be there!

Russia's Surprise Withdrawal From Syria? "If We Don't Go Away, We Can't Come back Again.
There is no doubt that the withdrawal is not quite what it seems to be, but more likely a tactical move by the Russians. The Kremlin feels it has done enough to secure the regime of President Assad, the remnants of the Sunni Muslim Free Syrian Army are no longer capable of mounting a challenge and the Syrians, along with Shi'ite militias in Iraq and Kurdish irregulars, backed by Iranian Republic an Guard troops ought to be capable of dealing with ISIS

War For The middle East - Why Islamic State Is Winning
The Obama Administration, and in particular The State Department which under the leadership of John (57) Kerry looks after foreign policy has all in all had a nightmare few months since the turn of the year.
