George W. Obama will supply Syrian extremists with weapons

This photograph has been circulating around the internet for awhile:

The point of the image is to show that, basically, there has been little difference between the policies of George W. Bush and Barack Hussein Obama.

In 2003 George "White" Bush used 'weapons of mass destruction' as an excuse to attack Iraq.  Now Barack Hussein Obama is using 'chemical weapons' as an excuse (pretext) to supply weapons to Syrian rebels.

This comes just a few days after it was revealed that Syrian rebels tortured and killed a teenager (in front of the child's parents) because they felt that he had insulted Mohammed.

Well, what else is new?

The US government supported Saddam Hussein in the 1980s and then turned against him in the 90s.  The US supported Osama bin Laden and then bin Laden funded the terrorist attacks of 9/11/ 2001.  Why should a Nobel Peace Prize winner and graduate of Harvard Law School act differently from presidents of the past? (That's sarcasm.)

One of my students said, "Well, if giving weapons to the rebels ends the fighting and bloodshed, maybe that's a good thing."

However, it doesn't look as if the weapons are being sent to 'end' the bloodshed.  The rebels are losing badly and if they do not get weapons, they may lose completely.  Since Russia is an ally (friend) of Assad's Syrian government, it looks as if the USA is sending weapons to the rebels *to continue* the war and make it last as long as possible.

This is exactly why the US government supplied weapons to Osama bin Laden.

Here's an article on how the Nobel Peace Prize winner will be sending weapons to extremists who torture and kill children, and to make sure that the war doesn't end too quickly:
