You got a death wish for Assad? Good -- go rogue and join the resistance. CALL US when you decide who the "ben franklin" appointment that the "rebels" choose..
Let's avoid the 3rd-grade responses, I don't need to become a cop to improve crime fighting in my area, no more than i need to be a teacher to improve schools. Bring a more intelligent argument, please.

What kind of blood-thirsty dupe are you? You want the US believe that a group of Ex-Patriot Syrian Eggheads who haven't seen Damascus in years and are living in Paris, Princeton, Belgium and London are IN CONTROL of this revolution??

Not only that -- but the dominance of the Muslim Brotherhood in this council should worry anyone hoping for "openness" and "democracy" in their plans..
These academics and rich political refugees are NOT in control of ANYTHING. And they couldn't kick out the jihadis in exchange for foreign military aid if they all held their breath for a week..
We should run to aid these posers? And not any of the guys actually FIGHTING to depose Assad? Seems to me -- we should have learned our lesson about disposing "dictators" who keep the lid on extremists.. .
