US Proxy War In Syria Obama Is Making Us De Facto Allies Of Al-Qaida

Barack Obama has just taken his first baby steps into a war in Syria that may define and destroy his presidency.

Thursday, while he was ringing in Gay Pride Month with LGBT revelers, a staffer, Ben Rhodes, informed the White House press that U.S. weapons will be going to the Syrian rebels.
 
For two years Obama has stayed out of this sectarian-civil war that has consumed 90,000 lives. Why is he going in now?
 
The White House claims it now has proof Bashar Assad used sarin gas to kill 100-150 people, thus crossing a "red line" Obama had set down as a "game changer." Defied, his credibility challenged, he had to do something.
 
Yet Assad's alleged use of sarin to justify U.S. intervention seems less like our reason for getting into this war than our excuse. 
   
For the White House decided to intervene weeks ago, before the use of sarin was confirmed. And why would Assad have used only tiny traces? Where is the photographic evidence of the disfigured dead?
 
What proof have we the rebels did not fabricate the use of sarin or use it themselves to get the gullible Americans to fight their war?
