SYRIAN MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD.. WE HAVE HEARD THIS STORY BEFORE!



Al-Shaqfa is an interesting individual and one we will hear more out of as
time goes on.

The Brotherhood's plan for Syria is not that much different from the plan
they executed in Egypt.

Let the youth spill the blood, thus getting Assad to overreact and bring
about his downfall.

After that is said and done, take over the movement, but use just the right
words to keep a war weary west from opposing their message.

Send a few "friendly signals" and talk the good talk...

When you read what Al Shaqfa had to say back in January of this year, you
might come to the conclusion the SMB was simply concerned for the people of
Syria and have no intention of ruling the country.

As the MB has discovered, they need to tell the story calmly, simply and
don't get into a rush.

So, what is wrong with the SMB Master Plan?

Iran!!!

Does Iran sit back and allow the MB / Sunni / to eventually rule Syria?

Can they afford to?

Can they afford to fight a war to keep control of Syria?

Can they afford to lose Syria if they have a coming war with Israel?

I would have to believe the SMB has some grand plan for pacifying the
Iranians, at least in the short term!

Bringing some version of the Arab Spring to Iranian soil is probably one of
the MB long term goals.

How does the SMB deal with the Iranian issue as they seek to take control of
Syria?

It has been said time and time again... Syria is not Egypt.. Tunisia or
Libya!!

Iran will stand it's ground on the issue of Syria, unless it finds a way to
continue to operate from there even at a reduced capability.

If the SMB can find this " balance point" then Assad may go the way of
Mubarak.

One thing is for certain.... the Muslim Brotherhood is the future power
broker in the Middle East and the rest of the world needs to figure out how
to deal with that fact.

The wrong move on the Syrian issue and the region goes to war, a war the
Israelis will not settle for a half victory on.

War with Iran means asymmetric war for the West...  far different than what has been taking place for the past ten years.

The age old saying will still hold true, " don't fight the next war based on
the last war"!!!
