Trump leading race for president due to his genuine anti-war position!
WASHINGTON (PNN) - October 10, 2015 - Russia has certainly changed the storyline in the Middle East. Not differentiating rebel forces (rebels being all forces counter to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad); Russia fights them all - including those “moderate” forces backed by the Fascist Police States of Amerika empire. Russian cruise missiles launched from the Caspian. The empire’s response?
Four Russian cruise missiles fired at Syria from the Caspian Sea, then landed in Iran, according to unnamed FPSA officials.
Both Russia and Iran deny this. It matters little the truth behind this minor distraction; the story on the ground has changed. For example:
The illegitimate Obama regime has ended the Pentagon’s $500 million program to train and equip Syrian rebels, regime officials said on Friday, in an acknowledgment that the beleaguered program had failed to produce any kind of ground combat forces capable of taking on the Islamic State in Syria.
At $100 million per successfully trained rebel, the empire didn’t secure much rebel bang for the buck.
The elite have grown afraid of the tool they have created; they have grown concerned regarding the risk. Having created the monster, they are witnessing the impossibility of controlling its awesome strength. They want to change direction.
This is why at one time Rand Paul was a favored candidate; at one time, he sounded the most anti-war. Of course, he couldn’t have followed a path more certain to lead to defeat - turning off both the libertarian base handed to him by his father and the neocons that he was never going to win over anyway.
This is one reason why Trump is now leading - and continues to lead despite numerous statements that would normally have ended all his political aspirations.
Trump has made the strongest statements of any candidate in either major party regarding ending the wars and empire.
While Assad is “a bad guy,” Trump said, the FPSA-backed rebels who want to overthrow him are an unknown quantity:
“We always give weapons, we give billions of dollars in weapons and then they turn them against us. We have no control. So we don’t know the other people that we’re supposed to be backing. We don’t even know who we are backing.”
He made some cogent comments on the Syrian imbroglio on ABC’s This Week.
“I think what I want to do is sit back - and this does not sound like me very much - but I want to sit back, and I want to see what happens. You know, Russia got bogged down, when it was the Soviet Union, in Afghanistan. Now they’re going into Syria. There are so many traps. There are so many problems. When I heard they were going in to fight ISIS, I said, ‘Great.’”
