The indecision is over folks. Obama’s Defense Department announced today that it has picked 90 so-called ‘moderate rebels’ in Syria to train and arm to fight against ISIS, with more to come in a few weeks:
That’s what they announced, of course. But the problem with this, as most of you know, is that there aren’t any ‘moderate rebels’ left in Syria. They are all Muslim jihadi terrorists and we are about to arm them…but not to fight ISIS. Yes, they said ISIS. But critics argue, as Shep points out above, there is no way to prevent these 90 terrorists from fighting Assad instead of ISIS.
Look we know Obama isn’t serious about fighting ISIS. Heck, when Egypt asked us for help to fight ISIS, we declined to give them intelligence. If we really wanted partners to fight ISIS, we would have been aiding both Jordan and Egypt.
Even John McCain has admitted that Obama is really going after the Assad regime. And is it any coincidence that on this day that both Saudi Arabia and Turkey announced a new alliance in Syria for the sole purpose of taking out the Assad regime?
HURRIYET – Turkish officials are confirming that their country has forged an alliance with Saudi Arabia to help rebels fighting the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad.
Turkey and Saudi Arabia have been at odds over how to deal with Assad, their common enemy. But mutual frustration with what they consider American indecision has brought the two together in a strategic alliance that is driving recent rebel gains in northern Syria, Turkish officials say.
These 90 terrorists aren’t our soldiers. They don’t take orders from us. We will train them and they will do what they want to do which is to fight to take out Assad with US weapons. That’s the bottom line. It’s all about Dabiq.
ISIS will be defeated one day or they will be absorbed into Turkey’s coming caliphate. Either way, it won’t be with America’s help, at least under the Obama administration.
