Talkback
Title:oh yes! oh yes yes YES!

assad is starting to assert himself, israel; listen to him!
he`s just placed the wedge; it`s up to israel to drive it home.

he IS distancing himself from iran! how blind can you possibly be?!

and obviously he wants...or they BOTH want...lebanon to distance itself, too...
and do you think for second this suggestion hasn`t been discussed in depth between the two?

he`s frigging dotting all his "I`s" and crossing all his "T`s"!!!
if israel comes through and doesn`t bog down and jack-around until it all falls through...
ASSAD is working towards a break from iran that will be complete!

and i certainly hope like hell that there`s some israeli diplomats pounding on doors in washington right now to get the u.s. involved like assad has wanted!
