Syria

It is not reported in the media but the MO is of the Iraqi Republican Guard conducted coordinated operations, then disappearing like ghosts. A lot of the sectarian death squad actions, they know how to drum up chaos to shield them and keep you busy. If they can help secure Syria as a Sunni strong hold then they can push back against the Shiite control inside Iraq, get a fairer deal at the negotiating table. Assad was a police state which control the Sunnis and their ability to cause chaos.

Terrorists!

This is disgusting!! Now do you understand why it is imperative for the Syrian Army to use force?! These people are terrorists and need to be stopped by any means possible! God bless Syria and Bashar Al Assad!
