This thread from Aug of 2011 might give a clue:

Report: Iran To Bankroll Military Base In Syria

There have been regular flights from Iran to Syria as I recall.

Meanwhile CNN reports ....FR Thread I posted from Headline Link at Drudge:

15,000 Ghods Special forces is the whole contingent of Ghods. What is being lost here is that there have been OVER 20,000 members of a mixed suppression contingent consisting of Bassijis, IRGC - Revolutionary Guards, many Ghods and a bunch of Palestinian felons, released to Iran from Palestinian prisons and paid by Iran. Initially to supress the Iranian Green movement when they poured into the streets as they would maim/kill Iranians without compunction since they would not have any relatives among them. And generally, mostly Sunni Arabs hate mostly Shia Iranians.

Is it not clear how Obama is following terrorist Moslem Broterhood directives and even making access to Syria via Iraq a certaibty by pulling our ALL our troops there.

When will America wake up and who are the 20% of sicidal Republicans reportedly aiming to support Obama in the November elections?

BTW Islam has been given a waiver by Obama from having to provide birth control but Christians like Catholics have not. Another proof of Obama’s increasingly open and arrogant pro-Islam favoritism and bias.

I’ve been saying right along that the Repub party has been infiltrated by Dems (Registering Republican) so the 20% doesn’t surprise me.

Absolutely correct, but the corrupt MSM got Obama’s back and that's why Obama has been nearly invincible. Think about all Obama has done and then ask how this has been possible.

In America there IS rebellion just as there is in Syria. The only difference is that instead of the regime shooting civilians in the streets, the Obama administration in collusion with the corrupt MSM are killing the American dream.

By all poll accounts people did not want ObamaCare. People protested. Democrats didn't read the bill. Democrats told us they weren't going to vote on it but merely “deem it passed”. How much more anti-American can you get? And the corrupt MSM supported Obama and something the American people clearly did not want was passed.

Now, try and think about the hugh and cry that would be raised if George W Bush tried to pass legislation requiring all Americans to support the NRA through payroll (union-type) deduction. Just look at Obama deciding that everyone has to provide birth control and abortion pills. Nary a peep from the corrupt MSM.

The MSM has Obama’s back. They won't point out what Obama has done in Iraq. In this regard the MSM is are no better than Assad and his firing upon civilians. In my opinion, the MSM is doing the exact same thing, they are just not using conventional ammunition.

Syrians are Sunni

Doubt it

I think this story was messed up by the journos. Haaretz reported that the al-Quds commander had gone to Syria, and they *also* mentioned that there *were* 15,000 al-Quds in Iran, just as background.

Not that 15,000 had gone to Syria.

This was picked up by al-Arabiya and others, who read it wrong, then from there to Alex Jones, then Drudge.

In the manner of explanation, 15,000 soldiers is a heavy division, that is, on the high end of what is called a division.

Since Iran cannot travel to Syria overland, nor could it send a ship full of soldiers through the Mediterranean, the only way it could get that many personnel to Syria is by commercial aircraft.

This would take weeks even using their commercial air fleet, assuming it discontinued all its other commercial flights.

That effort would have been noted a long time ago.

Just like in America. There are some jobs Syrians simply will not do (like machine-gunning their own grandmother).

We should STAY OUT OF IT.

Let the Saudis march in to protect their Arab brothers and let Iran and the Saudis and other Arabs annihilate each other.

None of them is good for us.

I think one of the reasons they put the army closer to Israel is because we are moving in position to move agressively against Syria.

The message is clear. If the US acts in Syria, the Syrians will attack Israel. -And the Iranians want to help.

Is it at all possible for the aid $ 0 wanted to divert from aid to various countries to Egypt, to be further diverted through the Muslim Brotherhood our SoS has been speaking with, and into this conflict?
