re: #29 Destro

You seriously think Assad’s window dressing to the Islamists in his country disqualify Syria as being a secular regime? ?

That it’s window-dressing is an assertion by you. Is there some reason you think that in a country that’s virtually 100% Muslim, many of whom are deeply devout, that the government is really made entirely of people who don’t want their religious faith encoded in law?

It’s a dictatorship and you think they are paying attention to how laws are passed

I thought it was socialist. It can’t both be socialist and a dictatorship, so can you please make up your fucking mind?
