I wonder if the rebels, once they win, will re-institute slavery like they did in Egypt.
And I wonder if the Post will notice.

Thank goodness the rebels are doing well! I was beginning to worry that we would never have another Christian hating, moslem brotherhood, Egypt clone.

Right about now the rebels are probably changing their plans about using chemical weapons on the Syrian Military - Boy that Hillary is a complex creature. And pretty soon the young Arab Spring protesters all over the Middle East will realize that the masks they wear from the movie “V is For Vendetta” are really really gay.

Interesting dynamics in Syria.
If Assad falls then does Iran stop supplying them? Does Hezbollah unite with fellow muzzie rebel bros and get even more aggresive with Israel? Don’t forget that Russia has some skin in the Syrian game?
Just another ME muzzie mess no matter how the cards are dealt over there.

Yep, and that's a good thing. We should never "MEDDLE" in other countries affairs. At least that's what I thought I heard from Hillary and gang way back.

MinorityRepublican ( from the article) : “ Bolstered by a steady flow of arms from foreign backers, opposition forces have scored a series of tactical victories in the Damascus suburbs in recent days and are advancing steadily toward the citys airport, adding to what some analysts view as a sense of momentum that has been building since late summer. “
The flow of arms since 9/11/12 at Benghazi is what should be stated in the article, along with the freighter leaving Lybia and going immediately to Turkey ( 30 miles from where rebels renewed their attack )
The flow of arms is “Fast and Furious”, Part Deux !

I've seen reports that it is estimated it will take 75000 soldiers to secure the chemical weapons after Assad falls.
Someone must have a plan....right?

BBC Report from 18 June 2012 :
Fears grow for fate of Syria's chemical weapons
*****************************************EXCERPT******************************************
There are even persistent reports in the US that preparations are being made to secure such stocks in the event of a regime meltdown.

I'm taking Doug Hagmann's articles into careful scrutiny, at this point with this latest writing.
Something don't jive with this latest short article. I'll leave it go at that.

Well the Washington Post will be the primary outlet for "NEWS" from the White House.
