And if you want me to do it again, then by God I\u2019ll answer the question again!&#8221;  And he launched into his tirade about how he doesn\u2019t care about winning and American leadership.  But even the media&#8230; There\u2019s a couple of stories in the Stack.  &#8220;Has the media tipping point been reached? Are they turning on Obama?&#8221;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>Not so fast, folks. <\/p>\n<p>But even they can\u2019t believe it, and they\u2019re not going to get behind Obama in his casual-ity about this.  Sit tight.  Further evidence of Obama\u2019s alignment with Iran on all this.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay, let\u2019s go back.  Yesterday, just shortly after 11 o\u2019clock on the Fox News Channel, Walid Phares guested.  He\u2019s a Middle East expert.  He\u2019s an analyst for Fox News.  He\u2019s a professor at the National Defense University.  And he was asked by cohost Jon Scott, &#8220;Walid, why can\u2019t we take \u2019em out?&#8221;  Meaning, ISIS.  This is after Obama\u2019s speech where everybody is scratching their heads incredulous over how noncommittal and unaffected by the attack on Friday night Obama appeared to be.  &#8220;Walid, why can\u2019t we take ISIS out?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>PHARES: Actually we can and actually we should, but the president has a different strategy. He\u2019s getting a lot of pressure by the Iranians. Otherwise he should have long time ago allied himself, partnered with Arab moderate forces such as Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, UAE, they are fighting terrorism very much and very well in Yemen, in Sinai, in Libya, elsewhere, but the reason that he\u2019s not going to these moderate Arab forces and asking them on the ground to be boots on the ground is because the Iranians are pressuring him because the Syrian Regime is pressuring him. They don\u2019t want those areas, those Sunni areas to be liberated by Sunni moderates because they won\u2019t have access to them. That\u2019s the bottom line of it.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=4871\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_113963\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/walidphares585.jpg\"\/><\/a>RUSH:  Shi\u2019ite versus Sunni sectarian violence. But essentially the answer means that what Iran wants is what Obama is loyal to.  And because of the sectarian violence in all of these places like Iraq and other countries within the Shi\u2019a and Sunni battle &#8212; you throw in the Kurds in Iraq, who we should arm, by the way. But the point is, ISIS needs chaos.  ISIS causes chaos.  Iraq benefits from the chaos, or Iran benefits from the chaos.  They do not want the Sunni areas to be liberated by the Sunni moderates.  They do not want the sectarian violence solved. <\/p>\n<p>Obama runs around and talks about it as though he does, but he really doesn\u2019t because the Iranians don\u2019t.  He\u2019s actually aligned with the Iranians and, as Phares says here, the Syrian Regime, which is a puppet of Iran.  And they are pressuring it.  Now, if you\u2019re saying, &#8220;Come on, Rush! That doesn\u2019t make any sense.  Well, ask yourself why in the world did Obama single-handedly lift the sanctions on Iran, which provided them $150 billion that was frozen, for them to upgrade their civilian airline, to fund further terrorist activity?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why has Obama singularly been focused on making sure that Iran can have a nuclear weapon in 10 years or whatever?&#8221;  It\u2019s not&#8230; Walid Phares is exactly right.  But I have a story here with evidence that makes him right.  It\u2019s not just his opinion.  The story comes from the Washington Free Beacon.  Here\u2019s the headline, but it\u2019s the last paragraph of the story that provides the proof.  &#8220;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/freebeacon.com\/national-security\/obama-administration-weighs-partnership-with-russia-against-islamic-state\/\">Obama Administration Weighs Partnership with Russia Against ISIS<\/a>.&#8221; See, Putin\u2019s out there claiming he\u2019s gonna kick butt. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Obama [Regime] is considering ways to form a closer partnership with Russia against the Islamic State terrorist group, including intelligence and counterterrorism cooperation, in the wake of the Paris attacks, US officials said on Monday. John Brennan, the director of the CIA, said that despite &#8216;significant policy differences\u2019 between Washington and Moscow on the best method for ending the Syrian conflict, he has continued to engage with Russian President Vladimir Putin\u00c2\u2019s government about how to combat the [ISIS].<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;US officials have accused Russia of propping up Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad and targeting US-backed rebels in Syria with airstrikes, rather than seeking to eliminate the terrorist group.&#8221;  No accusations needed.  The Russians are openly backing Assad against our allies on ground.  So what\u2019s the good of partnering with them?  We will be further hampered in going after ISIS if we partner with them.  Now, all of that is irrelevant to the premise.  That\u2019s just the first paragraph of the story. <\/p>\n<p>The last little note in this story supports the theory of Walid Phares that Obama\u2019s real strategy is to be more on the side of Shi\u2019ite Iran rather than moderate Sunnis, like those in Syria and Iraq who are fighting ISIS.  In fact, the article mentions something simply dumbfounding at the bottom, and it\u2019s this.  Quote: &#8220;Mark Toner, State Department spokesman, said on Monday at a press briefing that US officials have also urged their Russian counterparts to talk with Assad\u2019s government about no longer purchasing oil from the Islamic State.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What?  Are you kidding me?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_113969\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaIranGoodFatwas.jpg\"\/><BR\/>So now we know why the US has not bombed the ISIS oil fields and refineries.  We don\u2019t want to tick off Putin and Iran.  Let me further explain.  If Assad and Russia really wanted to destroy ISIS, you would do what Trump is saying: You would bomb their oil fields.  Their oil fields are their number one source of funding.  (I use that term because liberals love it.  &#8220;Funding&#8221; replaces &#8220;earning.&#8221; It implies policy.  &#8220;Funding&#8221; means giving people money.) The bottom line is, ISIS has commandeered and taken over a number of oil fields in the region, and they are deriving most of their financial benefit from the sale of oil. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s what\u2019s fueling them, so to speak. Therefore, if Bashar Assad and Russia really wanted to destroy ISIS, that would be it. Assad wouldn\u2019t be buying oil from ISIS, and that\u2019s what this story inadvertently admits, with this little quote from our State Department spokesman &#8212; who again said in a press briefing &#8212; &#8220;We urged our Russian counterparts to talk with Assad\u2019s government about no longer purchasing oil from the Islamic State.&#8221; So Assad is buying oil from ISIS, while we are being told that ISIS is trying to wipe him out? <\/p>\n<p>So if Assad and Russia really wanted to destroy ISIS, and if we really wanted to join them in destroying ISIS, we would first tell Assad, &#8220;You stop buying oil from them,&#8221; and then we would join forces and take those oil fields out, and they\u2019d be out of money.  But that\u2019s not happening.  Syria is buying oil from ISIS.  Bashar Assad is thus funding ISIS.  Now, this also explains why the US hasn\u2019t blown up those refineries and oil fields that ISIS now controls, because we don\u2019t want to tick off Russia and Iran. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s exactly what Walid Phares said: Obama has strategized that his best alignment here is with Iran in this fight, and Iran is aligned with Syria, which we now know is aligned with ISIS.  All of this makes sense.  US backed allies &#8212; moderates supposedly &#8212; being attacked by Assad? Our buddies, our allies being attacked?  And we\u2019re not doing anything to stop that from happening?  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=4871\">All of this supports the point that Walid Phares made yesterday on Fox<\/a>, that Obama is&#8230; Not rooting, maybe.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_113971\" class=\"alignleft\" align=\"left\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/470968388_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>But the strategy that Obama has implemented and therefore the American strategy in all of this is to side with Iran &#8212; and thus with Russia and Assad &#8212; over the moderate Sunnis in Iraq and Syria who are ostensibly fighting ISIS, supposedly our allies in fighting against ISIS.  This one little tidbit &#8212; this throwaway comment from this Department of State secondary spokesman (impression), &#8220;Yeah, well, we\u2019re trying to get Assad to stop buying oil&#8230;&#8221; Assad\u2019s buying oil from ISIS while we are led to believe that Assad\u2019s fighting ISIS?  And nobody\u2019s taking the ISIS oil fields out because the Iranians obviously are supporting ISIS \u2019cause it\u2019s in their benefit, all this chaos. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>So Walid Phares ends up being more right than he probably even knew.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Yesterday, Walid Phares&#8230; In fact, he\u2019s in the sound bite roster today, too.
