Holy shit, these people truly are master trolls.

Opposition spokesman Salim al-Muslat said Obama could stop the Russian attacks, although he did not spell out how.
"If he is willing to save our children it is really the time now to say 'no' to these strikes in Syria," he told Reuters.
So you stayed in an area controlled by moderate beheaders, an area that was not safe in the first year of this war and your children have yet to be moved?

"It's clear to everyone now that Russia really doesn't want a negotiated solution but for Assad to win," said the diplomatic source, speaking on condition of anonymity.
A senior adviser to Assad, Bouthaina Shaaban, told Reuters in Damascus on Tuesday that there would be no let-up in the army advance, which aimed to recapture the city of Aleppo from rebels and secure Syria's border with Turkey.
Asked how soon a ceasefire could be put in place, a Russian diplomat who declined to be identified said: "Maybe March, I think so." The Washington Post said Moscow had sent a letter to Washington this week proposing to stop its bombing on March 1, allowing it to continue for another three weeks.
The pin finally drops; The Russians are here to wipe you out and there is sweet fuck all anyone can do about it. Further more your precious Sunni terrorist entities are being hit for 6, all of the rapid gains and world wide support from broken westerners has been all for nothing.
They're dead, dying captured or fled to Europe. Your bolt holes have been buried, your little compounds annihilated and whatever leadership you had has no idea how to counter the planes, tanks and pissed off locals. You cannot hide amongst civilians because they're running too.
The Russians quote "maybe March" as a cease of hostilities. March would possibly come on the back of no major terrorist activity in a good chunk of Syria. I would be very surprised if any entity exists that could take a village by that time.
Last but not least, there is this bit;

Saudi Arabia's King Salman plans to visit Moscow in mid-March, Russia's RIA news agency said, a meeting that would bring together the main sponsors of the opposing sides. Riyadh said on Tuesday it was willing to commit special forces to Syria should a U.S.-led coalition deploy ground troops against Islamic State.
Saudi-backed rebels said they would go to Munich but would only go to U.N. peace talks in Geneva later this month if Russia stopped bombarding their positions and humanitarian aid reached civilians in the areas they control.
I won't go into this because it lays out exactly what we're dealing with here. Saudi sponsored terrorism on a secular state and humanitarian aid to help their besieged murderers.
When the Germans were given a chance to surrender by the Red Army as their failed attempt to grab Stalingrad failed, they declined on the orders of Hitler and were suitably defeated with most of them dying as prisoners of war.
I hope history repeats itself.
