As some are arguing here on whether Obama's involvement in Lybia was legal, not legal, a incursion of his own , Obama's war, or what ever...What is happening in Syria, possible could over take Lybia as a major problem. As this article from "debka " suggest, this is a uprising that help might be called on from Iran, thus getting another foothold in the area, or Hezballah in Lebanon to put down the uprising that seems to be spreading over the country, even to the point of starting something with Israel of all places to take the pressure off, people behind the government. As strong as Assad seemed, it seems the Sunnis who are 75 % of the country populace are wanting their rights as majority party and most units of his Army are Sunni, only one brigade made up of his sect and in this part of the world, that is all that is needed. ------------------------------------------------------------ www.debka.com/article/20803/------------------------------------------------------ To survive, Assad must contain majority Sunni unrest before it infects army DEBKAfile Exclusive Analysis March 26, 2011, 1:45 PM "Bashar Assad Ir yria His minority Allawites challenged by Sunni majority The protest against Bashar Assad’s regime is swelling. From its first epicenter in the southern town of Deraa it spread Friday, March 25, to new cities, Homs, Aleppo, Latakia and parts of Damascus. It has quickly attained the scale unforeseen by the regime of a popular uprising by the majority Sunni population (74 percent) against Allawite-dominated (15 percent) rule. Army troops gunned the protesters down in what witnesses described as a massacre of scores and hundreds injured, raising calls from the opposition for international intervention. The number of dead and injured cannot be reliably determined. debkafile’s intelligence sources report that special Syrian security clean-up units removed the bodies as they fell. The authorities were caught unawares by the upsurge of street rallies that followed preachers’ sermons in hundreds of Sunni mosques calling on their congregations to go out and drive the Assads and the minority Allawite sect from power. The Syrian secret service missed the Muslim Brotherhood’s hand in organizing this mass street eruption. The strongest rallying cry came from the influential radical Egyptian television preacher Yussuf Qaradawi who called on Syria’s Sunni community to stand up for its rights as a majority." --------------------------------------------- [click on link to go to article]
