WHO SHOT WHO IN SYRIA TODAY?

All the buzz today was about the two Police Officers being shot at the protest just outside Damascus Syria today.  
Some reported 'unknown gunmen' fired on the crowd striking two Police Officers.
That's a great storyline if you need to Government to look like the 'good guys'.
Some reported 'unknown gunmen' who were part of the protest fired upon the Police.
Another great storyline if you need the Government to look like the good guys.
Let's look at another possibility and who would benefit from it.
Now when the shots rang out in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Bahrain, Oman, Yemen, Saudi, Algeria ect... ect..
everyone was ready to accept the fact it was the 'Government' that did the shooting.
In Egypt even when it appeared the shooting was coming from in the crowd towards the protestors, it was still widely reported it had to have been Government agents planted into the crowd to make it appear the innocent rebels were turning violent!
So where did this 'concept/ theory' disappear to today?
Is it possible that one of the most oppressive regimes in the world, Syria, could devise such a clever act after watching the same thing happen for the past three months all over the Middle East and North Africa?
I am going to go out on a limb here and say, 'yep', I think they could!!!
So; why didn't this 'twist' show up in the media today?
I will tell you why I am worried it didn't show up.
I believe, as DEBKA stated this week, some countries may be adopting a policy of, "better the Devil you know then the Devil you don't know".
How much 'revolution' is too much 'revolution'?
I've asked this question before, but Syria may be adding validity to the argument.
I have talked about how dangerous this Syrian event can become.
Syria means more to Iran than all the others put together.
Perhaps other countries are starting to realize this.
Perhaps the concept of 'Democracy' in Syria is a Bridge too far... yet?
Perhaps, but the Sunni have a vote and the Kurds as well.
It's not over yet.
