Leader-In-Waning vs. Leaders-In-Waiting!

Our unloved, undesired, unintelligible, yet completely unrepentant nincompoop of a president has just opened his mouth and vomited a load of nonsensical utterances that will challenge the finessing capabilities of even the most rabid regime supporters out there. Still, I am sure that many, each for his/her reasons, will attempt to read something noteworthy into them, after all, the man is a goddamn president, so he must know what the hell he is talking about.

Meanwhile, and despite all the idiotic criticism, Bayanouni’s announcement regarding his willingness to get back the Golan Heights through negotiations make good political sense. This is exactly the kind of message that needs to be sent at this stage, knowing how influential the Israelis are in shaping the US and international policies vis-à-vis the Assads regime. It is indeed important here to point out to the Israelis that a government in which the MB will take part will still be committed to the language of dialogue as the best way for getting back the Golan.
