UN envoy calls for interim Syria government

Lakhdar Brahimi, the joint UN-Arab League special envoy to Syria, has called for a transitional unity government in the country.

But a similar plan proposed in June never saw the light of day.

And the Syrian National Coalition, the main opposition group, has already laid out its terms.

Idiot, you think the so called FSA would ever negotiation with Assad? They only reason why want to negotiation is because the rebels know they are weaker, have not the support of the people and never are able to win from Assad. This is a despert move by the FSA. The FSA should get the fuck out of Syria since they are not even from Syria and shove their demands deep up in their asses.

He's not stupid if you consider the money he's being paid for this bullshit mission.

Are these people high on drugs or what? A unity government? Bashar Al-Assad is responsible for the death of 40 000 people. There's no chnace for reconciliation. Bashar Al-Assad and all his supporters have to be eliminated. Period. I t seems to me this UN initiatives are just a facade to show its existence still has any significant meaning. The UN is a farse.

Saudi Arabia is just as bad.

[mrjesusthedestroyer]

Exterminate the terrorists and there won't be any need for a transitional government. Either way, with or without Assad all Islamists will be exterminated.
