Can a thinly veiled defeat be disguised as a wonderfully skilled diplomatic success? Re: [RUS] Kurds + US mid east plays - US-Saudi Plan to Prompt

[Zenaan Harkness]

Well, looks like situation in Syria is starting to stabilize. This is
great news, as Iran can next put more focus/ energy into stabilising
Yemen (yet another CIA-fueled absolute disgrace on the USA litany)

"
IMO, as a result of these basic changes in circumstances the Obamanites
are in search of a face-saving compromise with the Russians over an end
to the war in Syria.  IMO this is reflected in the the soothing,
friendly sounds from both Russia and the United States over the
possibility of a ceasefire.  Obama does not want to leave the mess in
Syria as a stain on his legacy.  Since belligerence has failed, he now
looks for a prestige restoring alternative.

Can a thinly veiled defeat be disguised as a wonderfully skilled
diplomatic success?  Yes.  The public outcome will promise things like;
a new constitution, eventual exile for Bashar Assad, UN supervision of
interim elections, etc., etc., ad nauseam.

The underlying truth will be that Syria will remain a multi-confessional
state with Bashar Assad as president for a long time.
