How you say in
Arabic ‘Toast”?
Assad is short-lived..
but what waits in the wings?
The Muslim Brotherhood and Middle East Caliphate.
Assad is far from pro-US, but he has protected the Syrian Christians from the jihadists. In return the Christians have supported him. If he falls and is replaced by another jihadist nutjob, it will be very bad for the Christians there.
The Russians... on their way to help re-stabilize this Islamic State of Syria with their Marines. Assad may be short-lived, but the Neo-Soviets and other Communist allies won’t let Syria actually be free...
