‘Free Beacon’ Montage: Obama Admin. Repeatedly Says ‘Assad Must Go’

Frenemy of the State (The Washington Free Beacon)

If nothing else, the Obama administration’s tone is consistent.

Since 2011, the president and his cabinet members have declared Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad to be illegitimate and said that he has to go.

They are not wrong to think that, but nothing has been done to back up those strong, repetitive words and make Assad’s departure a reality. Only recently did Obama embrace arming moderate Syrian rebels in their fight against Assad, which even former Obama Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta said was too late a move to help prevent the spread of the terror group ISIL.
