Obama's nightmare scenario
It is amazing to think that Assad today is establishing conditions for his country to get rid of its chemical weapons. If someone had pondered such a thought on August 21, the day the world first saw the images of the horrific atrocities in Damascus, we would surely have sent that person to get his head examined. Today Assad is permitting himself to actually demand from the United States that it cease threatening him, because otherwise he is not interested in a deal -- thereby negating the Russian solution. Assad understood that this is actually Obama's nightmare scenario.
And while we're discussing conditions, then why not ensure his future and demand an end to aid for the rebels – particularly after the news reports about the CIA beginning to train and arm them?
Read the whole thing. For Israelis of my generation, the Abie Nathan comparison at the end is priceless.Assad, encouraged by his place in Russia's leading axis, has even put Israel on his "to-do" list, calling on it to relinquish its weapons of mass destruction. Assad is suddenly confident? It is unclear who he owes more to: Putin for his professionalism or Obama for his amateurishness.

Obama`s Nightmare Scenario must include that Night Journey Horse "Buraq".......
"A tall, white, handsome-faced beast. Bigger than a donkey but smaller than a mule. Long ears and two wings on the thighs. On occasion has been depicted with a peacock tail. Could place its hoof at a distance equal to the range of vision. No mention given to any sounds it might have made."
