Ter bewustwording: The Syrian peace talks have gone nowhere. Absolutely nothing has been accomplished from the U.S. perspective.

 

The Syrians and the Assad regime, on the other hand, look to be the big winners. The best they can hope for is a new round of talks-- because the talks in Geneva are a disappointing bust. Meanwhile, on the other side of the Middle East it, appears like the Iranians have also made fools of the Obama Administration. The country is not getting rid of its nuclear program.

Last week, the Iranian Foreign Minister said the White House "underplays the concessions and overplays the Iranian commitments." This is in sharp contrast to what the President said this week in the State of the Union Address. The Federal Reserve pulled a bit of a surprise this week. It, once again, cut back or "tapered" the bond buying program. It is still pumping out $65 billion a month propping up the economy and holding down interest rates.
