MEMRI June 26, 2014 – Special Dispatch No.5780
| In a June 20, 2014 interview on CBS, U.S. President Barack Obama said that there is no “ready-made moderate Syrian force” capable of defeating Syrian President Bashar Assad, and that the notion that “farmers, dentists and folks who have never fought before… could overturn not only Assad but also ruthless, highly trained jihadists if we just sent [them] a few arms is a fantasy.”[1] These statements angered officials in the National Coalition for Syrian Revolutionary and Opposition Forces (SOC), the umbrella organization of Syrian opposition groups. The coalition’s spokesman, Louay Safi, said that Obama was responsible for the current crisis in Syria, because he had failed to meet his obligation towards the oppressed Syrian people when he reneged on his decision to attack the Syrian regime for its use of chemical weapons, ignored Iran’s interference in Syria, and denied the Syrian opposition the assistance it needed to defeat the Assad regime.
