Yet the pledge fell far short of what the opposition had made clear it wanted: weapons and direct military intervention to stop the violence that has killed more than 70,000 people. The Syrian National Coalition had sought drone strikes on sites from which the regime has fired missiles, the imposition of no-fly zones and protected humanitarian corridors to ensure the safety of civilians.
Instead, the Obama administration's pledged to provide an additional $123 million in aid, which may include for the first time armored vehicles, body armor, night vision goggles and other defensive military supplies. It was the only tangible, public offer of new international support as the foreign ministers of the 11 main countries supporting the opposition met in a marathon session in Istanbul.

I want MY armored vehicles, body armor, night vision goggles and other defensive military supplies to protect myself from the Islamic TERRORISTS OBAMA is arming.
Al-Quaida is also helping the Syrian rebels, so, in essence, we are furnishing aid to Al-Quaida. Thanks, John Kerry. That's what we hired you for?
WHY? Because Obama is in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood.
Chechen 'rebels' are also 'helping' the Syrian 'rebels.'
WTF!!
At least here on the Shore the population is too sparse to warrant bombings. We'll be able to sit back and watch the carnage as the cities are taken. And, perhaps the gov't will come to their senses before we have to army-up.
The Syrian rebels are al Qaeda
so government wants to disarm it's citzens while giving syria weapons, what logic
Yep 8:55 as were the Egyptian "rebels" and the Libyan "rebels" al qaeda and obama put them in power and then has the nerve to go to the Memorial Service in Boston and feign surprise, sorrow and sympathy.
He grew this problem to proportions never seen before. He's to blame as are anyone and everyone that supports him.
Time to kick the Muslim out of the White House by whatever means necessary. What more is it going to take for people to start fighting back, replacing the White House with a mosque?
Barack Obama, November 21, 2007-
“Well, I truly believe that the day I’m inaugurated, not only does the country look at itself differently but the world looks at America differently. If I’m reaching out to the Muslim world they understand that I’ve lived in a Muslim country and I may be a Christian but I also understand their point of view… My sister is half Indonesian, I traveled there all the way through my college years and so I’m intimately concerned with what happens in these countries and the cultures and the perspectives these folks have. And those are powerful tools for us to be able to reach out to the world and when you combine that with my work on the Senate Forum Relations Committee on everything from nuclear proliferation to issues of genocide then I think that the world will have confidence that I am listening to them and that our future and our security is tied up with our ability to work with other countries in the world. That will ultimately make us safer, and that’s something that [the Bush] administration has failed to understand.”
Explain why Michelle Obama was visiting this "person of interest" and assuring him it would be all right but ignored the injured people from the bombing.
Because 1:16 she's a braindead Stepford wife who does as she is told including lying for her master husband.
