By now you have probably heard about Hamza Ali al-Khateeb. He was the 13-year-old Syrian boy who tagged along at an antigovernment protest in the town of Saida on April 29. He was arrested that day, and the police returned his mutilated body to his family a month later. While in custody, he had apparently been burned, beaten, lacerated and given electroshocks. His jaw and kneecaps were shattered. He was shot in both arms. When his father saw the state of Hamza’s body, he passed out.

Maybe it is a little realpolitick, but both I and Israel hope Assad is able to keep the Muslim Brotherhood from taking over Syria. The devil you know?

But back on topic, I don't understand how these torture using a-holes can live with themselves. One reason the Hitlerites invented the gas chambers is that German troops were comitting suicide rather than mow down more people with machineguns.

Don't count on it remember, that Liyba is more important, so Syria will (like the other "nations" around Isreal) WILL fall into the muslim brotherhood.
Why? because our Prez. will true his back, on the ONLY TRUSTED Ally we have in the area.
