9. He did a turn about with Syria from his postion last year.

What happened between then and now?

Does the SS Fiasco have something to do with it, i.e. threats? Did the Gaza Bombings have something to do with it when Bibi was over here addressing Joint Session of Congress? Was there worry that Palestinians uniting and possibly getting seat on UN Security Council meant that public opinion was becoming unfavorable when the pictures of Gaza bombing victims (disproportionally children) were shown? The ISIS Crisis showed up on the scene shortly after the Cease Fire Agreement went into place which took attention away from what went on there and the aftermath effects on Gazan people. And, now, we have Diane Feinstein all upset over Khurasan and ISIS immediate threat/danger to USA as they kill children and rape and torture women and now Khurasan could be coming over here with explosives on planes if something isn't done, immediately?

Is this part of the Plan to Remap the ME which dictates Assad must leave Syria and Iran must be isolated? BiBi gave a speech yesterday (or over the weekend) calling for Iran to be dealt with. Sergei Lavrof, Russian Ambassador to UN, was interviewed on Bloomberg Business, yesterday, (he speaks English) talking about how Iran should be a partner in any negotiations in dealing with ISIS but he complained that Kerry left them out of a crucial strategy meeting. He said that negotiations with Assad should be done through the UN. Is this something that's going on in the background? A tug of war between Iran, Israel, USA over how and when Assad must be removed?

Is Obama caught up in a struggle he can't win because the MIC interests in the Middle East/Ukraine are now too powerful for him to be able to pull back from.

Any other possibilities?
