As if Mojo isn't opposed to Assad and Baathists.

Curious that you oppose Assad now. Weren't you singing "I love Assad" on 24 hour broken record loop 2003-2007?

Didn't you just love the way Assad and his Syrian Army provided funding, weapons, embedded combat advisors, trainers and logistics to the Iraqi resistance 2003-2007? "Iraqi resistance" meaning sectarian sunni arab militias of course.

Mojo, notice how Iraq's economy is the fastest growing significant sized economy in the world:

See page 72

Iraq is also now safer than many other Arab countries, such as Syria, Egypt, Yemen and Libya.

"But according to a new report in Germany’s leading daily, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ), the Houla massacre was in fact committed by anti-Assad Sunni militants, and the bulk of the victims were member of the Alawi and Shia minorities, which have been largely supportive of Assad. For its account of the massacre, the report cites opponents of Assad, who, however, declined to have their names appear in print out of fear of reprisals from armed opposition groups."
