THE RAMIFICATIONS OF INACTION????
















Well, it's been rather obvious I've been away from my opinion postings for over two weeks now, but I'm happy to say I'm back and I've picked a great topic to come back to!

I'm not going to waste your time or my time talking about the events leading up to the drive for Western intervention in Syria.

My last post addressed my most simplistic point, and if you notice, I posted it before the Tsar made his move on the whole issue.

The short answer is this... The Tsar scores a victory, but what will be his reward?

Ok, back to what I'm convinced is now a far more important topic.

The news today, outside the US, on the topic of Syria was more than fascinating and in fact, what was announced today was not only a long time in the making, but it was also completely predictable by those who know the region.

If you look at some of my older postings on events in Syria you can find time and time again where I spoke to the issue of so called, Leadership in exile members and the real fighting force in Syria... the Rebels.

As a reminder, the age old saying has not changed; "One man's freedom fighter is another man's revolutionary/ Terrorist.

Let's cut to the chase.

Many of us have known for over a year now the fighters in Syria were never going to march to the drum of the social elitist living in high-rise condominiums overlooking the streets of capital of Turkey!

Again, as a important reminder, just because you eat dinner and drink fine wine with Western Political power brokers, that doesn't equate into victory on the true battlefields of Syria.

For months, the storyline was all about how the radial fighting groups, most of them fundamentalist, were in a real power struggle with each other and how the Assad regime was going to be able to take advantage of this infighting.

Most of those who came up with this theory were more worried about being paid to say it or write it then they were figuring out if it was actually true!

It was and remains a "picture" the so called leaders, the ones living in the condos taking a bath every night, continues to attempt to sell to the rest of the world.

Are the fighting groups in Syria going to hold hands now and fight as one synchronized organization?

Of course not, but what they are going to do is make it known the appeasement approach taken by the false leaders of the Syrian revolution,  the fine wine club, will not have a say so in what takes place on the ground, door to door in Syria.

If you accept this announcement today, you need to ask yourself, what happened?

What changed?

What event made the "middle of the road" FSA groups jump ship?

Well, do you think they may have lost hope when the great Western assault on Assad and Hezbollah didn't take place?

Do you  think that could have been the proverbial, "straw that broke the Camel's back"?  

What pushed them off the center of the fence, if they were ever really there?

Is this announcement today a byproduct of the failed Western intervention?

Most likely yes!

Now, ask yourself one last question.

Who does this benefit?

Who fills the vacuum?

Who can bee seen as the voice of "reason"... a voice that takes the opponents into the back room and puts a bullet in the back of their heads?

Ah yes.... the TSAR!!!!

As soon as this breakaway announcement was given, perhaps even before, the GCC was hard at work figuring out what needs to be done.

If you live in Iraq or the Hezbollah side of Lebanon....keep your head down...

The GCC knows how to make pull the right strings.
