Not sure what they will do. I saw an interview a few days ago, with christiane Amanpour and Syria's president, where he spoke in English and said his country had nothing to do with Hariri's assasination. Amanpour asked him if it was possible that part of the old guard, which are still top hats in Syria, had a hand in it without his knowledge? He replied "that would be treason because they know I want nothing to do with such things, and if it turns out they had a hand in it, they would stand trial in Syria." The next day one of the big dogs from the old guard committed suicide. Part of the problem in Syria is that the new president is young and has brought his own friends into his cabinet. These guys are young and new-age thinkers, like him, trying to bring reform to Syrian politics, but the old guards are still powerful and are fighting the president and his new policies and his circle of policy-makers. This makes it hard for him. He's now between a rock and a hard spot, trying to work under pressure from the U.S. and at the same time he's undermined by the old Baath guards. I think he's smart enough to try to buy time, and play the game by pretending he is on board with the UNITED STATES, especially, since the UN has already started it's witch hunt, the guy can't do much but play it THEIR way. Otherwise, they will assasinate him, something they said today they are "fed-up" with! --------------------- |
