BUT, IT'S THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS!
When you read this news article, pay particular attention to
the last line.
Jamil could very well be stating what his leadership feels
or he may be restating what the Russian / Chinese have advised him.
What does appear to be obvious is Jamil's confidence in the
protection of the two big powers.
On that note, it's interesting he doesn't mention anything
about Iranian support?
Why lean on Iran when you can hide behind Russia and China?
So, is this counter warning about a Regional War based on a
true belief in "top cover" by Russia and China?
If it is, it verifies Jamil is just another fool stepping up
to the media microphone.
Let's ask the next important question.
Regardless of the confidence Assad may have in support from
his so called friends, does he really intend on attacking others in the region
if he believes "Western powers" or supported / Allies of the West
take overt action in Syria?
Probably so, although it could very well be at that moment
in time his two most trusted "friends" may put a bullet in the back
of his head; as the Iranians angrily stand by and watch.
Does Russia and China want or more importantly need a
"Regional War" in the Middle East?
No!!
Can they prevent one from taking place?
Probably not!
So you see, it's up to Assad and his true handler, Iran.
Finally, I'm not convinced Assad or Iran will wait until
they see US / NATO / tail flashes flying in Syrian airspace.
Both he and his Masters in Tehran already believe outsiders
are supporting the rebels.
When he decides to "pull the trigger" on
inflicting pain on those he blames for his crisis is truly up to him; well...
it's really up to his Masters in Tehran.
Hiding behind Russia and China may seem safe for now, but I
would equate that to hiding behind a Great White Shark as I was bleeding from
the leg!!!!
