We should seek to exacerbate the frictions between Shiites and Sunnis until they go after one another with a vengeance - much more than they are doing now.

Sad

Not one American life should be risked to do anything about it.

“Arab Spring” means, in reality, you’ll be pushing up daisies in the Spring.

Welcome to Obama’s favorite appeasement country - Syria.
His secret contacts with Assad bordered on treason. His conduit was the son of a Soviet agent. Bet you didn’t see that in the news media. Simon Malley (a founder of one of the Egyptian Communist parties, late 1940’s. - AsiaAfrique publication, Paris, 1970’s - Soviet propaganda operation. Whole family including Son - Robert Malley , Obama’s secret envoy to Syria - kicked out of France as internal security threats.

Try to find something relevant on Google. Not a lot around.

In 1982 the Hama massacre killed somewhere between 10,000 and 40,000 depending on the source sited. This campaign to maintain the Alawi ethnicity control of power has to be violent, considering they are only 12% of the population. They may be outnumbered but they ain’t out gunned.
