Assad - heroically standing up to Obama

Freepers take the side of the oppressive regime in another Muslim country that isn't Iran. In this case Assad, who is currently killing his own people for daring to oppose him. Freepers are sure Imam Obama is involved somehow as well:

bigdirty does not believe NATO reports that Assad may be using chemical weapons, cause NATO is pro al-Queda:

This is more lies and bullshit from the pro-al Qaeda opposition to get NATO to come fight their war for them. Just like the Libyan rebels said Gaddafi was massacring them and going to use chemical weapons as well. None of that happened.

Don’t trust these muslim dogs and make sure to fight any attempts for the US gov’t to put our boys in harms way fighting their insane tribal war for them!

redgolum has decided Assad is pro-Christain:

[Assad's forces] are the only people protecting Christians in the area. Don’t believe what the spin says. As of late, the US has been on the side of islam, and many from Iraq have fled to Syria.

RinaseaofDs's sarcasm sounds like Rumsfeld's actual rhetoric:

It’s SPRINGTIME in SYRIA!!!!

Yaaaayy!

Arab spring is a beautiful thing, and love is in the air.

The people will win, and they’ll love the US for their help, and the little Ben Franklins and Thomas Jeffersons will bust right out of their brainwashed little bodies.

I say build a wall around it and make sure whatever’s inside doesn’t leak out. In the end, whatever remains is still going to hate us.

elpadre thinks American liberals may be behind this Syrian brouhaha:

Just who is behind this uprising? Is the Muslim Brotherhood a player or the American left pushing this thing, looking for results like got in Egypt and Libya?

BobL also blames American liberals:

This is fun to watch. If it wasn’t for the encouragement that the West has given the anarchists, Assad would have dealt conclusively with this ‘issue’ months ago, long before being forced to use chemicals.

PapaBear3625 blames Obama:

The lesson of Libya: if you lose you die. Expect Assad to operate according to the viewpoint that unless he wins, he and his entire clan will die. It's likely that this will turn into a bloody Shiite/Sunni civil war.

Thanks, Barry.

Gaddafi was given countless opportunities to go into exile, PapaBear.

taillightchaser is pissed Muslim Obama has gotten us entangled in the middle east:

This cesspool corner of the earth is not worth one more American life!! These camel jockeys have been killing each other for centuries and nothing we do will ever change that.
I say get every American out of the area—DO NOT SEND ANY TROOPS THERE!!!
Let them solve their own problems—if they attack us we turn the whole area into a parking lot.
It’s a tragedy that we have one of their muslim brothers in the white hut—God only knows what he will do.

af_vet_rr is suddenly against war in Iran or Syria:

Obama intends to get us in a war in either Iran or Syria or both. His administration is beating the drums for Syria, and he, England and France seem Hell-bent on taking out anything in Iran that could be used to make nukes. And Iran is trying to give them an excuse to go to war by threatening to close down shipping.

George W. Bush said his biggest regret was the war in Iraq. I guarantee that when Obama leaves office, he will not regret anything.

Does this guy even read Free Republic? They beat the Iran war-drums daily!

hampdenkid has decided that Obama is behind everything, and Iran's mullahs are behind Obama:

The Islamist opposition to Assad has already announced that they intend to slaughter him, his wife, and his children. Frankly, were I in his shoes, my response to that would be far more oppressive than his is now.

As to whether Assad will fall, that pretty much depends on whether he retains the support of his Iranian handlers. If they continue to prop him up, they will so inform Imam Obama, and Imam Obama will keep the West at bay.

Simply put: the Iranian mullahs and Imam Obama are fellow tribesmen. So far, they have succeeded magnificently in bringing down the Mid East governments most friendly to the US. They will not stop until the Iranian takeover is complete.
