No worries unless you qualify for "The Draft".

Oh, no, the war is in danger of quickly ending, the killing may stop. That will never do. It must go on FOREVER in the name of Freedom surely.

Why are we even bothering? Let someone else take on that mess.

It can't be for oil ...

being that Russia is propping up the guy, what will they think about our increased aid to the rebels?

A war so the Saudis can export their extremist Islam? Land of the Free indeed.

yet another war is coming
gotta feed the machine

without war who will the military industrial complex sell their trillions of dollars worth of arms to every year

Talk is cheap, when trying to coverup the big NSA story.

Now for the details, like delivering the new weapons. There are two Russian fleets off the coast, a base on land, the coastal area secured, and government troops moving forward on all fronts.

The terrorists are falling back, They have recently lost several warehouses of weapons and supplies. Homs is being cut off, no resupply, and no reason for house to house fighting, The terrorists are trapped in the rubble with the other rats.

That the Mullas have declared a Jihad, Sunni against Shiite, shows this is an area religious war, and they are running out of people who will fight for money.

Having a few years to bring in arms, stockpile supplies before the shooting started, they had an advantage. After two years of fighting, not having freedom of movement, and now being forced to move or die, they are on foot with what they can carry, and the bakeries and gas stations are closed, and the easy to steal trucks have fled.

Now supplies have to come by truck from over the border, something that now stands out. No one in their right mind is heading toward conflict, and trucks make easy targets, There are government held watch posts near all the borders.

Fighters now move on foot, with what they can carry.

Now the advantage is to the government, who can maintain supply lines. They have the ports, trucks, aircraft to keep up.

The People, who were supporting the FSA, are starving, without medical care, and every sniper is answered with bombs, rockets, morters, which also kills the people. No one wants to be anywhere near them.

Several million have left, Their homes have been destroyed. More are being driven out by leveling their town before the government retakes it.

Native rebels were Sunni, poor, uneducated, many of which are now dead, their families in Sunni Lebanon, Jorden, or Turkey. They and their slum housing was no loss to the country. They Liberated their neighborhoods out of existance.

At first, snipers did kill the Police, then the Troops, but the tide turned, and since then almost all the dying has been supporters of the revolution. There will be more as in recaptured areas the locals will make sure it does not start up again.

It is almost over, there is no one to support, except those who can never return, and those who formed a government in Turkey. There is no need to support the Saudi faction, their money and weapons are covered. Their location and movements are reported to the government.

More weapons will not change the outcome.

Obama is going to free the **** out of you Syria.

It has already been confirmed for over a month that the 'rebels' have been using chemical weapons, Turkey actually caught some with sarin gas not too long ago. Where was that 'red line' then? It's all BS, this is a war for Israel and the Arabs against Iranian's and their allies. Let's pray this war doesn't spiral out of control

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I don't like Assad, but who will run the country? Also, it looks like covert aid has been going on for some time:

About f*****g time. Once Bashar is down, the next fight would hopefully be against the Jihadis if they are going to be trouble for the Syrians. Hopefully, the SNC gets its way and heads the country as a result.

Didn't see that one coming........

It has certainly been a long time since the US engaged an enemy capable of projecting force beyond its own territory. Enforce a no-fly zone over Assad, Hezbollah and Russian advisers? That doesn't sound like fun
