Syrian government forces have taken most of the Khalidiya neighbourhood in the central city of Homs, one of the few remaining districts there under rebel control, activists and media say.

Yet Obama is jumping right into this war on the losing side.:hmm:

Just like Libya. When the rebels were about to topple the regime nothing. When the rebels start losing time to prolong the suffering and fund the rebels.

 

[Gintaras]

Rebels - when they are on our - US side...
Terrorists - when they are against us - US...

And...of course...we have to help rebels and fight terrorists....

Just like a Spy an Intelligence:
Ours -Intelligence
Theirs - Spies

All it depends on What Side Of The Fence Are You...

Well...I'm not theirs or ours...just because of location - side of The Fence I said that....

The escaped Iraqi prisoners, recently freed by Al Quaeda, might join those "rebel" forces.

I am not sure which side I am rooting for now. Probably want both to lose, as both have embraced barbarism.

 

[Kadarin]

I'm hoping both sides lose.

 

[WhipperSnapper]

With a little luck, hopefully they'll all kill each other.

And then they killed the U.S ambassador because he made the great sin of visiting Libya.

In reality its stalemate.

often regin retage one position/town only to lose another.

Right now SAA is winning in Homs, while losing in Aleppo and Daraa.

Barack Hussein picks wars about as well as he picks green companies.

There really isn't a "good" side to this. It's islamo terrorists vs murderous dictator. We should have stayed the heck out of that lose lose, but with all the other outside forces jumping in (Russia, Iran, China etc), staying completely out of it was also a hard option.

Having an idiot in the WH evaluating our options of course doesn't help either......

I miss the good ole' days when picking a side was easier (e.g. WWII).

Time to send Rambo to save the day.

Both should just give up and let Israel run the whole country for them, life under the evil Jews would probably be much better than monkey self-governance.

Sure lets give the entire world to Israel. They are the shepherds and we are the sheep.

Good idea.

What mental institution you've just been released from?

 

[Generator]

As we speak gun runner John McCain is fueling his plane.

Yes, because the rest of the world outside the Middle East is too busy fighting pointless civil wars and attempting coups.

At least he didn't get us into the quagmires of Iraq and Afghanistan, unlike a certain other recent Republican president (who also committed treason by outright concocting a story about weapons of mass destruction to trick the populace into supporting the war in Iraq).

Yet Obama also has not gotten us out of those areas like he stated.

We have troops in Iraq, Afghanistan.

Gitmo is still operational.


Never trust a politician when they are making promises that they know they can not keep.

 

[Pr0d1gy]

I love how everyone keep calling them rebels when we know the "rebels" are just Al Qaeda. So now we are funding the same group that we started the War on Terror to fight. Oh the fucking irony.

 

[bshole]

I am so so so rooting for Assad.

Actually Obama greatly expanded the war in Afghanistan.

Just ignore Whipper, everyone else does.
