ASSAD…. PERSIANS, TSARS AND “DRAGONS”:

Way back when, at the beginning of the conflict in Syria, I gave my opinion of just how this all might end, given the West desire to no longer be seen as a world leaders!

If you search this site, you will see my comments on how the day would come that the Tsar and his Persian Allies, if the Tsar really has such a thing, would decide if Assad stays or goes and if he goes, who would replace him.

So, when I came across these two very well written articles, I was compelled to go back and read what I posted over three years ago.

Yep… I was right!!!

Now, one of these stories brings up an excellent and important point about Mr Assad.

He, like me, has always known he serves at the pleasure of the Persians and the Persians decision to keep him in power is influenced by the Tsar!

Does that mean he is willing to go upon request?

No!

Do the Persians and the Tsar understand that dilemma?

Yes!

As I said three years ago, when the time comes for Assad to “leave”, he will not be asked to “go”!

He will wake up “dead!

He will most likely hear kind words being said over his body, most likely at the barrel of a gun, and he will see whoever it was his Masters chose to replace him standing next to his most loyal military leaders…who actually work for the Persians!

The facts are these:

  1.  Assad’s departure will be determined by his Masters, even if his Masters decide to let the rebels succeed in killing him thereby providing his government the rally cry to avenge his death in a most merciless event…. One the West will only sit back and watch.

  1.  The future of the region no longer is controlled by the West and in fact the influence factor is decreasing by the day.

  1. Finally; the plans of the Masters are flawed, as plans almost always are, by the fact they didn’t take into account other potential “Masters” and the actions they are quietly making.

Yes the region is changing and there is no doubt Assad will not be part of that change, but as I said two days ago, relationships are being forged and the most important ones are being made in closed rooms without the Persians and the Tsar.

They may worry they are being made and they may even try to anticipate what deals are struck, but in the end, they will have to wait to see just how well their plan executed.

In ancient history…. Those who dreamed of sailing the world and finding untold wealth were overcome by stories of Dragons and Sea Monsters… so much so thee very maps they made depicted areas one dare not go!!!!!

Those days may soon be a reality once again!
