Oh I could be more wrong - and so could you.
Did you not see the little crisis that came up when a member of the muslim brotherhood was appointed leader in this fight?
He had to step down for PR reasons, i.e, money flow & Western support.
While the Alawites give lip service to Iran, you aren’t seeing armed Hezbollah or similar types roaming the countryside.
No, that is for Lebanon, Syria’s little playground in its rat a tat tat again Israel.
If the Hez type factions ever gave Syria an edge in some dispute with Israel they would very likely see what happens to all useful idiots after a victory, i.e, a purge.
While I support your idea of staying out & letting the blood flow, your other premises are not completely correct.
Iran & the muslim brotherhood, supported by Iran, are the power brokers of the rebels in Syria & nothing different will come of the Sunni v. Shiite situation either.
After,all, that has been going on since Fatima raised the flag so many centuries ago.
Thank you for your post.
I have spoken to Christians with family still in Syria, they support Assad who keeps the zealots in check.
