Well that sucks for him. But when your ranks include religious fanatics who are just as willing to commit atrocities as the regime you’re opposing, its hard to get people on your bandwagon. Not every enemy of my enemy is my friend. I fully understand why many world leaders would rather stick with the devil they know.

Western European powers like France and the USA really seem hot to topple Assad. Why? Other than a crack at Syrian pipeline routes from Iraq after the Assad regime falls (France) or removing a regional power from the chess board to weaken Iran (USA) I don’t get why the FSA are any better than the Assad people and by recent conduct they maybe are just as bad if not worse.

“Why?” You really can’t guess? It’s because we are two nations that are both intensely proud of our revolutionary history. We see rebels and tend to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Like the Vietcong? Or the Nazi rebels who tried to overthrow the German govt?
