And As'ad until now was part of that "criminal gang". His penitence is probably more a matter of personal survival, but it does my heart good to see rats leaving the Ba'athist ship of state.

He’s killing 100 people a week. He needs to be stung up.

The ball is in Assad’s court. Time to invite in more Iranian and Hezbollah thugs/mercenaries?

Looks like Sodem’s WMD’s are about to be revealed. An ‘Accident’ with them could make Damascus a wasteland,

Mebbe Britain could bring a peaceful end to all this by offering Bashar a chance to abdicate and return to London and return to his opthalmology practice if he promises to lead the quiet life and stay out of politics henceforward?

This could be the big break. If this guy’s a competent soldier and all the deserters flock to his banner with all th equipment and weapons they can take with them it will snowball.

When will NATO enforce a no-fly zone to protect the rebels?

Bad regime will be replaced with worse regime full of muslim extremists.
Not to be crude, but for the interests of America (and certainly Israel) the Mideast move to democracy is akin to divorcing your wife who has herpes and marrying a gal with herpes and HIV.
I have yet to see any improvement for peace and stability and I am not holding my breath.

Syria controls Lebanon and Hezbollah. They are allied with Iran.
And Syria is coming apart at the seams.
And we're dicking around with Libya...???

As'ad accused the Assad regime of crimes against the Syrian people and called on the officers and soldiers in the Syrian army not to aim their weapons at the people. In recent weeks, a large number of officers and soldiers have deserted the regular Syrian army. In once instance, there was a mutiny and over ten of the soldiers participating were shot and killed.
See tag line. Apparently, the Bamster has anticipated such a possibility.

If you think Assad has a long neck now, wait until he meets Mr. Rope.
