Assad supporters wake up to the fact that he's not only cruel to his enemies, but his incompetence endangers them too.

So what is the alternative?
Don’t say the FSA because it practically does’t exist. It is the weakest of the anti-Assad factions.

This is what I have been thinking too. It is intolerable for the soldiers of one’s own country to be absolutely slaughtered inside its own borders. Doesn’t Syria have some air-power?? Iran might as well. Why aren’t they or someone going after the ISIS troops?

The ISIS has been massacring the tribes that back Assad in the East. Likely that some of the airbase defenders were tribal irregulars.

Hell, we may end up using WMD on these roaches, too.

[Wuli]

with someone else in the WH than BHO, this could be an opportunity for us - likely it will be an opportunity missed

Asshat has allies?
