REPOST AND REWRITE : RECENT EVENTS IN SYRIA

In the last few weeks the following has occured regarding Syria:
1. allegations and 'proof' from the UK and Israel that Assad had crossed Obama's 'red line' and used chemical weapons - but a UN inspector Carle del Ponte said all the evidence pointed to the rebels using them. Obama ignored these claims by the UK and Israel.
2. Israel attacked Syria...TWICE! - claiming to be interrupting the transfer of Iranian weapons to Hezbollah but in reality attacking divisions of the Syrian Arab Army in coordination with al Qaeda.
3. two car bombs exploded in the Turkish town of Reyhanli on the Turkey-Syria border were blamed on Syria - but so far no proof has been provided, the attacks are too convenient for Israel and Robert "death squad" Ford was secretly in the area just two days before the bombings.
4. much more frequent calls for a No Fly Zone over Syria from the rebels and the media, in particular from The Washington Post.
5. Secretary of State John Kerry has agreed with Russia to peace talks and the USA has not decided to directly arm the rebels.
6. Russia has apparently decided to supply Syria with S300, if it has not delivered them already (were they the real target of the recent Israeli attacks on Syria?), despite a personal plea from Netanyahu.
7. Russia has sent a significant number of warships to Syria.
8. at a UN GA vote, only 107 nations voted to support running Assad out of Syria, down from 133.
9. CJCS Dempsey also does not want to become overtly involved in Syria.
10. despite personal visits from Erdogan and Cameron, Obama has barely moved from his steadfast position on Syria, which at the moment is condemning the Syrian al Qaeda rebels to a swift defeat by the brave and competent Syrian Arab Army.

The tide is definitely turning in favour of a peaceful political resolution to the externally provoked violence in Syria.

And Obama suddenly finds himself embroiled in several scandals?

Blame the extreme Neocon faction who are running a soft coup against Obama.
