A day of rage...

In Syria:

This will probably fail as did the uprisings in Iran. Assad's military will not stand by and do nothing. Any uprising will be brutally put down as they were in Iran.

Speaking of a brutal put down of protests:

Syrians in Lebanon have witnessed small battalions of Hezbollah reach the Syrian-Lebanese borders awaiting further instructions. Combined with the IRGC fighters inside Syria already deployed, this will be a massacre if the White House and the international community do not openly support the people of Syria.

The Al-Arabiya and Al-Jazeera offices in Damascus were visited by Syrian Internal Security men who told them not to cover the events unfolding tomorrow and Saturday. They threatened with imprisonment any reporter who disobeys their instructions.

So, what exactly is your question or \"commentary\" as it were?

[Nightshade]

Simply that not all protests will be covered equally- nor will they be responded to as well as the Egyptian protests.

Assad does need to be removed as do the tyrannical mullahs in Iran.

I'm still waiting for mass media to finish talking about the NASA love triangle/scandal

Assad does need to be removed as do the tyrannical mullahs in Iran.

I'll bet there are some Syrians who would take issue with that statement.
