a pretext it's still another way to divide and take over the country using the united nations as your vehicle is unfortunately a repetition of what happened in libya or the united nations being used to promote war instead of promote case that playbook worked in libya they want to try the same playbook and no it doesn't work anymore well there is no desire by. the west nato to have a negotiated settlement the only purpose of this exercise is to make sure that there is no competition in the middle east for pipelines such as by way of syria iran and other places and all these other things are excuses there to claim that they care one bit about humanitarian concerns as it is a gross. and also we're killing exists planning to plunge into the sewer and debate with juvenile songs promising millions of related emails will be published in a rare interview the whistleblower gave to latin american t.v. network he also pointed to a clear manipulation of the media over the syrian conflict

3:13 am
obama's hot mike moment when the president told me to mediate if that he would be more flexible to discuss the issue after the election mitt romney says under his administration quote mr boortz in we'll see a less flexibility and more backbone and of quote and of course that adds up to his earlier statements that russia is america's number one geopolitical anime that they need to reset the reset that's actually what he says on his website as part of mitt romney's foreign policy agenda so yes a lot of tough talk i heard experts say that's how mitt romney makes up for lack of charisma what's interesting about the backbone comment is that mitt romney himself is often. the size is often characterized as lacking the backbone as he has flip flopped on so many issues like abortion was for abortion before he was against it or illegal immigration when he was for giving them legal status that he was for deporting them mitt romney's flip flops have been widely discussed they've been an

3:15 am
