#1 The only non-messy policy on ME is.
(1) Let the animals kill each other.
(2) Don't let them get any advanced weapons.

#3 I'll disagree with the good doctor - the administration does have a clue in Syria. It's just not the one expected.

#4 Expected by whom, Pappy?

It's certainly what I expected, and I assume many other 'burgers as well.

#5 The Obama strategy is as clear as the nose on your face. It is:

Leave it for the next guy!

#7 See also LUCIANNE, BIGNEWSNETWORK > [Daily Beast] PENTAGON: OBAMA "TOO TIMID" ON PUTIN.

And SSSSSHHHH ... CCCCCCCC the ISIS/ISIL as well.

* SAME, TOPIX > US SEEKS TO ESTABLISH JOINT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE - IRAN.

Yokay, as said times before, TO BE A OWG GLOBALIST-DESIRED "US-STYLE", "US-PAR" CO-SUPERPOWER IRAN NEEDS A MODERN MILITARY-INDUSTRAIL COMPLEX BEFITTING ITS NEW STATUS.

US-LED ANTI-US OWG-NWO + GLOBALISM = US IS HELPING ITS GEOPOL ENEMIES, RIVALS, WANNABES, ETC. BECOME STRONGER RELATIVE TO ITSELF.

Even iff the ARTIC isn't true + Tehran seemingly or allegedly "lied", ITS IN THE US-LED ANTI-US GLOBALIST AGENDA TO DO SO, most likely POST-OBAMA/JAN 2017.

* SPACE WAR > NUCLEAR PEACE: MANKIND'S MOST DANGEROUS BLUFF?

* GROONG, TOPIX > [ARMINFO] SARGIS HATSPANYAN: TENRAN'S ONLY "BREATHING HOLES" ARE US-MILITARY-BASE-FREE ARMENIA AND ARTASAKH [Armenia + Azerbaijan], TOPPLING OF SYRIA'S ASSAD WOULD TURN IRAN INTOA GEOPOLITICAL "ISLAND".

IIUC, IOW the US' OWG Co-Superpower sibling iran NEEDS "LEBENSTRAUM" = "LIVING SPACE" = "SPHERE(S) OF INFLUENCE", as does Iran's Sunni rival wannabe "NEO-OTTOMAN" TURKEY + OTHER IN THE ME = MUSLIM/ISLAMIC WORLD.

Deter, Protect, Expand, + Project MilPol Power + Trade.

VERSUS

The ISIS/ISIL threatening Mainstream/Honest Amerikans back home in CONUS-NORAM due to the Bammer's [intentionally?] messy FP???

* LUCIANNE > EMBOLDENED ISIS THREATENS AMERICAN MILITARY FAMILIES OUTSIDE THEIR HOMES.

The priority or focii is OWG + US-GLOBAL SOCIALIST GOVT-ORDER, NOT NATIONAL SECURITY.

NOT STOPPING THE ISIS OR QAEDA BOYZ, OR ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, ETC.

US-N-ONLY-THE-US STRATEGIC UNILATERAL = SELF "RETREAT/FALLBACK IS OWG + WORLD PEACE".

Dare OWG Amerika not be just "EURO-SOCIALIST", BUT MORE "EURO-SOVIET/COMMUNIST/STALINIST"???

D *** NG IT, TWAS THE USN BB USS OKLAHOMA THAT CAPSIZED/SANK AT PEARL HARBOR BACK IN 1941, NOT GUAM!

Guam's poor US-VS-CHINA-VS-NUCLEAR-ISLAM-VS-OWG besieged CAMEL ROCK - we hardly knew ye!
