@ronluzim the Facist American plan for the the "new Middle East" -as stated by condoleezza rice- is a REALITY its not a joke, and Syria is today is in the front of the stuggle against facism, and we shall fight to the bitter end. every action of American gov. is aimed at aggrivating the situation further at Syria. if they care about even about human rights they would have cared about the 40-years suffering of the Shia mejority on Bahrini Islands, but they only watch thier intrests

What goes around, comes around... Decades of supporting oppressive tyrannical regimes, results in having to PAY the blood, treasure, social, economic and political costs of ignoring the suffering of The*People whom your system has taken advantage of and denied freedoms compassion. The brutality started long ago with your actions and will result in the death of many from all sides... As responsibility and accountability have their price, Time to pay the piper... C.H.A.O.S.

@Ahmed2011April Again you have America between your eyebrows! The point is: Is not about America it's about Syria's people. It's about saving the lives of the ones that are making the ultimate sacrifice for a free Syria. I don't know about your comments, but it cost Iraq 100K lives for freedom with the UN help. Syria is already in 5K or 7K + with out anyones help and with no end or any hope in sight. Now the war is going to be dirty, long and couvert. I don't think that is the better way. Sad.

but without Mubark. the same in Yemen they rescued the guy from trial. and the killing continued in both countries. they wanted to end the revolution prematurely! Assad may not be a good president for Syria, but know he is our only mean of rescue from the American Fascist Reich. without him the Middle East will be CIA playground. and i don't think that the world will allow the American Mission to succeed in the Middle East.

@ronluzim first of all i'm an atheist, you could say that my religon is Arab Nationalism. secondly, i do wan't to belive that US is all teary eyed because civilians in Libya and Syria, it would be a perfict world, except that US murdured 100,000 civilians in Iraq and the support for the opprisive pro-American goverment of Bahrain. well you could say what about Egypt and Yemen, US didn't support dictators there. well i can tell you that it was a joke Mubark govenment still stands in Egypt...

@Ahmed2011April

Typical Islamist mentality:

a)Blame the USA, for the rebellion against the murderous regimen by the oppressed.

b)Kill the suppose guilty ones Gaddafi style.

ufff, even the Syrians are tyre of this type of islamist... Go to Kabul you will be happy there... Peace...
