SYRIA  AND THE ARAB QUESTION TO THE WEST.

As I said last night, Assad has committed his reserves both politically and tactically.

When a civilian population sees Tanks in the streets and their barrels pointed at them not at an invading enemy, then a country is all but lost!   

I cannot believe Assad has made this decision without close consultation with Iran.

If Iran is willing to risk the loss of its closest 'proxy' ally, than it is probabbly preparing for other actons as well.

It will be clear within a day or two if the leadership and more importantly the  enlisted ranks, of the Syrian Military is going to stay with Assad's plan to murder his own people in mass.

Rumors were flying this evening of key military Commanders jumping ship!

When troops see 'leaders' walking away, they will not be far behind.

If these stories are true, the full panic of the Iranian government will be visible shortly afterwords.

Nothing and I mean nothing will be off the table for Iran if the Syrian military begins to fold.

In my opinion, the most dangerous period of the last four months is about to take place.

For the US and it's Allies, the Arab world, Sunni to be exact, is about to ask a key question.

" Why is Syria different from Libya"?

"Because it just is", will not be an answer the US or the UN can sell to the Arab world.
