This could be getting pretty serious. What should or what do you think will happen if Assad feels like he's painted into a corner and has nothing left to lose?
Thought this part was interesting:
Not to worry, though. While Syria succumbs goes the way of post-Communist Yugoslavia but with WMD, President Obama has promised to do something serious about the place… some time after Mitt Romney’s SEC filings get him re-elected
Deputy defense minister dead, most senior general dead, Assads brother in law dead......collapse coming. Hopefuly Assad won't go out with a big bang i.e. sarin gas release.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
I think Putin and Russia would hate for Syria to fall into the hands of the Islamists. Chechyna was/is worse for them than 9/11 for us. Plus Russia is losing a lot of influence in the region to the Chinese.
