No, just a serial killer who accidently killed another serial killer.

Браво! Настоящий рукопожатный сириец. Америца знает на кого ставить, опять вместо людей в цивильных костюмах посадят на трон фанатиков в халатах. Отдельное спасибо за миллионы убитых чеченцев.

You think when you put a suit on a fanatic/dictator, it makes him more sane? =))

The official Russian position on this seems pretty clear. I.e. leave them alone to sort out their differences. No meddling, no intervention, no invasion. I am totally with Russia on this.
Let's see if NATOcan manage to keep its hands to itself. I don't hold very high hopes!

Actually Russian position is not to leave them alone but to stop conflict on BOTH sides while other countries (except China) try to issue the resolution to support rebels.

These 'rebels' have got modern arms and are very well trained if they are capable of several month's fighting against a regular army. How is that?
The 'free' and 'independent' media maintains that Asad fights with his own citizens. If so, his soldiers must be totally incompetent.
Or, he fights with some well trained and armed mercenary force that is acting as 'Syrian freedom fighters'.
What 'truth' are you ready to believe in is up to you, but what concerns me - everything is crystal clear.

Syria is apparently on some hit list of countries whose regime they plan to take down or invade.

So Syria has been doomed since early 00s.

Watch this clip - really! You won't believe what you are hearing!

This is a REAL five star American General who lead the NATO operation in Kosovo, telling the real story.

Only Syria and Iran are not bombed yet but those 2 are targets for US and Israel strikes."

Consider the status of Libya, Iraq etc...
And guess who's top of the hit list right now?
The two remaining countries from the list, from 2001!
Anyone who doubts this needs only turn on an American news channel and listen for a few minutes!

The Syrians can look forward to a "true democracy" where, they get to elect an expat CIA spy as their president, just like the Afghans.

And here is where you get to after 10 years of US occupation:

Even if they're somewhat well-trained, does that make them mercenaries?

And why do you folks doubt THAT dictator SHOUD be taken down? He was given power by his Dad, without a fair election, he's responsible for around 10,000 deaths in the country over the last year, the soldiers that carry out his orders shoot down people, catch and torture them (including under age children). The Syrian people are all just fed up with him, it's obvious. But they can't do anything about it, they see what happens to protesting people...

Why Eric you don't care that your way to take down the dictator would cost hundred times more human lives in a couple of months than the number of deaths caused by the dictator during decades (even if we take your "numbers" of dictator's body count as real).

The Syrian people are all just fed up with shooting from either side. They just want to keep their lives. They just don't wont to be killed whatever some people outside Syria think that it is for the good of them.

The name of the person who should be in power in Syria doesn't matter. What matters is what to do to achieve some good for the Syrians. Shootings on the streets doesn't make any good to the Syrians.

Такого хама, как оппонент Мутузова, еще поискать надо. Он полностью дискредитирует себя.
Он мне напоминает Жорика Вартанова с СевКавТВ по манере разговора.

Yes, that does. Becaise a well-trained fighter fights only for money. Besides, I doubt any of these 'rebels' are in fact Syrians.

10K? Why not a million? Or a billion? Why is he responsible? Do you have any proof?

They should eat them alive! I wonder what's stopping the media from telling that 'truth'?

Do you know any Syrian who lives there willing to confirm your statement?

'Protesting people' or 'foreign mercenaries'?
