If I were an adviser to President Obama

[Wry Catcher]

I would encourage him to make the following statement:

"We are convinced that the Syrian military under the authority of their leader, President Assad, have used chemical weapons to kill thousands of their citizens, including children, women and men. We had hoped that the nations of the Middle East would be as appalled by his actions as have been the citizens of the United States.

"While some of the nations of the Middle East and Asia condemn him for his murderous actions, they remain unwilling to prevent further murders by using force to engage President Assad and his Military.

"The United States of America holds the power to prevent further reprehensible actions by President Assad and his Generals, but we will not do so alone. Unless the nations of the Middle East, Russian and Iran step forward to assist us in the prevention of the slaughter of the civilian population of Syria, we will stand aside. Should they choose not to prevent further carnage I will recommend to the Congress that future aid to the Military of members of the Arab League be canceled." I will not send American troops into the region to settle sectarian violence nor spend our nations resources in a region where lose, lose is the only alternative for the American people"

 

[ScienceRocks]

Sounds like the best solution as of this moment...

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Line crossed?

Just kidding?

I thought everyone on his staff was intelligent. Hell, Black Jimmy was even president of the Harvard Law Review - whatever the fuck that means. I'm sure he doesn't need advice from some kook on the Internet.

So now its thousands??

 

[dilloduck]

Obama doesn't talk to Congress--they would know it's another bluff.

 

[hjmick]

He's convinced...

Reminds me of another President...

U.S. Syria Conflict: Intelligence On Chemical Weapons Is No 'Slam Dunk,' Officials Say

 

[gallantwarrior]

How can he know for sure that Assad didn't know anything about chemical weapons until he saw it on the 6 o'clock news? Maybe Assad was playing golf? Or maybe his "advisors" just don't tell him anything. Shit excuses like that work for Obama, why not Assad. Assad can certainly not be held any more accountable for what his administration does than Obama...really.

I see, and I understand why you wouldn't offer him any.

He doesn't need anyone's advice. He's the anointed one. According to you - his shit tastes like candy cane.

Seems your boy is in a little bit of a wicket.

It is far too late for that.

Any way it is sliced, the US now comes out looking weak and ineffectual.

The April use is confirmed rebel use. While the investigation continues from August. Did you have a point?

Why don't you put some of these quotes in red. They're just as applicable in Syria...

Didn't seem to bother you when Saddam gassed 10s of thousands of Kurds. All of a sudden, you're hot and bothered about Syria? Oh that's right, you're a Black Jimmy sheep...


Democrat Quotes on Iraq Weapons of Mass Destruction


"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face."
--Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
--Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
Letter to President Clinton, signed by:
-- Democratic Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others, Oct. 9, 1998

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
-Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
-- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999

"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies."
Letter to President Bush, Signed by:
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), and others, Dec 5, 2001

"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."
-- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002

"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002

"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."
-- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002

"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002

"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002

"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do"
-- Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002

"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
-- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002

"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002

"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003

He lets this go on for over two years, and your little statement will make us look all powerful and wise?

Seriously?

BTW....It appears that the Russians are moving military assets into the Mediterranean to counter our build up.

What will Obama do now?

Maybe he'll telegraph his next move too!
