Underscoring President Obama’s dramatic overestimation of his administration’s ability to sell a war against Syria to the American public, Israeli officials have revealed that they were contacted by the US on August 31 and told an attack was imminent, and would begin in the next “24-48 hours.”
In the face of massive popular opposition and growing demands from Congress to be consulted on the war, Secretary of State John Kerry delivered an afternoon speech on Friday, August 31 insisting the war was “necessary.”
The administration apparently figured it was a slam dunk, and told Israel immediately after the speech that the war was coming that weekend, something that media outlets were also reporting.
On September 1, President Obama changed his tune, and insisted that the war would happen after a Congressional authorization, which at the time was expected to come in short order. The administration also played up a planned speech that would make Americans “want” to attack Syria.
Every speech that was supposed to finally convince everyone of the war came and went, and opposition grew. Congress never even bothered to vote, because it was clear the vote would be lost by the hawkish leadership.
One of these days the deity isn't going to be around to screw up these best laid plans And the crazy bastards are going to destroy the world.
The world will be destroyed base upon what the apartheid state of Israel demands from it's master's in Washington. Religion doesn't play a part in their lives, just plain hatred.
Due to lack of any support by USG Europeans allies Obama halted the attack, later the Saudis barbarians and UAE tyrants and terrorist states sponsored government of Turkey were told that we need something like Iraq lies to attack Syria, that's when the use of chemical become their motive which later all the evidence points to Saudis that supplied the chemical to their barbarians hoping for the best. Otherwise Obama said the right thing they would have attacked Syria if every thing were going according to that chemical plan, and if Russian wouldn't have sent new warships to Mediterranean and Iranian would have stopped supporting the Syrian government.
"Oops!"
Seriously, I knew the Obama admin. was incompetent in foreign affairs, but not that incompetent.
