Wow. First the Taliban, then Saddam, then Libya, then Yassir That's My Baby. Now, Assad is feeling the heat.
These are historic times.

Look at all the people in the streets!!!
Even the reporters are floored.

Puts the "turning Saddam's half-brother over to Iraq" story in a different light. I think Mr. Assad has to be looking over his own shoulder. Based on nothing other than pure speculationn, I anticipate a coup in Syria within a year.

Who knows? Maybe the people of Iran will now decide to take back their government. Dominoes? That would be terrific.

I'm beginning to feel like I did at the fall of the Berlin Wall. Unfortunately I had that same feeling at the start of the Tiannenmen Square protests. But with the changes occurring in Egypt, Afghanistan, Palestine, etc., it's looking like the Iraq election was the Mideast's "Tipping Point". What an amazing time to be alive.
