Revolution in Syria on the Rise

Syria is shaking. It was only a matter of time. Despite being one of the most repressive regimes in the world, despite enjoying a relatively decent standard of living (compared to the other nations), the Syrian people are rising up. They are shaking off the forty-year Assad dictatorship.

If the United States assumes any military interest in Libya, then by all means the President must bolster support and dispatch military forces to Syria. It is shameful to witness the bulk of US diplomacy wooing Syria away from Islamic fundamentalists. Assad's promises for reform will prove empty. He must be thrown out, by will or by force! The question now is whether the United States Government will properly discern friend from foe. If the United States abandoned Mubarak, a stable ally of the West, we definitely need to cast out Assad, a cold enemy and virulent opponent of the state of Israel.
