Obama on Syria - Syrian Update

The White House: In the following statement the Oval states the following on the role of Hizballah and Iran in Syria, " It is clear that the regime could not contest the opposition’s control of Qusayr on its own, and is depending upon Hizballah and Iran to do its work for it in Qusayr.  Hizballah’s involvement in Syria and the Syrian regime’s cross border attack today on Arsal represent blatant violations of Lebanon’s sovereignty and a deliberate threat to Lebanese stability.  The United States firmly supports Lebanon’s security, stability and sovereignty.  We commend and support recent statements by Lebanon’s leaders calling for adherence to Lebanon’s policy of disassociation from the Syrian conflict.  Hizballah and Iran should immediately withdraw their fighters from Syria. We also urge all parties to avoid actions that could exacerbate the already devastating toll of this crisis on civilians and increase the risks of spillover of violence. ....Assad’s refusal to step aside is only prolonging the suffering of the Syrian people and postponing the inevitable.  Assad’s reign will end, and the Syrian people will build a new, democratic Syria without him.  Those who have committed these heinous crimes against the Syrian people will be held accountable. ".

Lets Get Real: 

The Obama Oval has let down the Syrian people, it has been estimated that over eighty thousand Syrians have died in the Syrian Civil War, over million Syrians are refugees in Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Turkey, these Countries have started to be infected with the violence from Syria, the Oval stated last year that should Assad use chemical weapons this would be a red line and the US would ACT, well the French and the UK has confirmed that chemical weapons have been used and the WORLD does nothing, the Obama Oval has abdicated leadership in the Middle East, the ISRAELI air force has become the regional Policeman because the Oval is afraid to ACT, history does not look well on weak leaders, no matter their internal domestic record, President Johnson was tarred with no winning in Vietnam, Bush 43 saw his administration eaten away by Iraq, his brave decision to have a surge allowed the US to leave Iraq with some honour, even thought the place is now falling apart, and that is more down to VP Biden not getting an agreement for the US to stay in Iraq.   The Oval has to get off its ego and lead in the Middle East, that means using force in Syria and Iran, otherwise the region and the World will suffer folks.
