Not likely going to happen Kozyra. Some Americans still remember the Danceing in the streets when the twin towers collapsed, the rest don't much care. Kinda tired of being labled "the great satan" by everybody anyway, so less and less willing to help.
Freedom has to be fought for. Liberty won't stand by you if you won't bleed for her. She's a heavy task mistress and many people can't withstand the weight of her yolk. This fight you have, you have to do yourself, and it won't be cheap, freedom is the most exspensive lady in the world and she only accepts blood as payment. Americans know this because we pay her "bride price" at Arlington cemetary every day. Are you ready for that Kozyra? are you ready for the Gardens of Stone? |

Syrian opposition thought that they can win this fight by peaceful protests, some in the opposition are still thinking like that. That is naive, I agree with Ryzorian on this one.
Its not 2500 people dead, I saw some place that Army defectors mentioned that 5000 people are dead already. The Syrian regime convinced the Alawites that if the regime is toppled they will be doomed. In reality it is the regime that is digging the grave for 10% Alawite minority. Here are the steps the opposition needs to take: - Opposition has finally united in a council in Turkey so that is a good step - now they need to convince the minorities like Kurds, Christians and Alawites that they will not be persecuted in a new Democratic Syria under majoritarian or Salafi rule, they need to be won over with real promises of minority protection and effective stakeholder role in the democratic process - army defectors must be organized and helped from Turkish, Jordanian and Iraqi border camps to supply arms and run training camps for volunteer fighters - main weapon of Syrian army are tanks and armored personnel carriers, so these has to be neutralized with anti tank RPG's - minority Kurds, Christians and Alawites should be given a prominent role to lead this fight so they have the opportunity to prove their loyalty for the Syrian armed struggle for freedom There is enough willing volunteers to fight in Syria, funding can come from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE and other international sources. A comprehensive plan need to be made for the armed struggle and then go for execution of the plan. If the Syrian Air force is provoked to respond then demand can be made for No Fly Zone, but they will avoid using the Air force for this reason. Turkey is waiting in the sidelines and watching the situation, Iran is putting pressure on them not to intervene. Bottom line is, Syrian opposition need to make a plan and take the decisive step, only then others will come forward to help if they see a real plan and action on the ground. For too many months Syrian opposition wasted their effort in a peaceful movement, while Assad took the opportunity to try to cleanse the opposition leadership. I think it is dawning on the opposition that this tactic is a mistake on murderous regimes. Better late than never. Gaddafi made the mistake of large scale killing and using Air force, so international community had an excuse to intervene - Assad is an idiot but shrewd enough to not repeat these mistakes. Also unlike Libya, Syria does not have much oil. So in short, make a plan, get partners for fund, arms, border camps etc. and start executing the plan. Gandhi's peaceful protest has its place, this is not one of them. |

I'll tell you what happened in the US dureing our break away from Britain in 1776. We did get help from France near the end..But they didn't give us Public support until we could proove to them that we could defeat a British army, on the field of battle, on the British army's terms.
International support will more than likely only be supplied if the Syrian alliance or whatever those groups want to call themselves actually meet the Syrian army in battle, on the Syrian army's terms..and wins. That's going to be a very difficult road to tread. |

Do i feel for the Syrian people sure i do i feel for the people who are just trying to raise their families and get by, the ones that induce the violence i wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire. Im sorry but if you want a free country you have to fight for it. Freedom is not free and the asking price for freedom is usually blood. You want it badly enough fight for it just like other countries have done in the past. The UN is not just going to send troops or start airstrikes like in Libya. There needs to be formal resistance and they must meet the government on the field of battle and actually win. Also, there needs to be cohesion in the ranks and there is not there is a split if they cant work together for a common goal no No country especially the US will risk an all out war in an already unstable region. I do not support a intervention in Syria at this time. |
