In case of Syria I'm sure Russia, Iran and probably someone else will be supportive to Assad, furthermore Iran in case of assult will take appropriate actions.

LOL, I pray they will. It'd be fun to hit all those fucking dictatorships in one shot.

There's only one dictatorship that worth a hit or two for the sake of humanity (including you btw), it's even got a proper name - FRS. But I'm afraid military actions are useless against it, since it was built around people's faith and won't go away before people give up that faith ;)

 

On related news, here's an interesting thread on MilitaryPhotos portal:

“Abdel Hakim Belhadj was a member of Al-Jama’a al-Islamiy*yah al-Muqatil*ah bi-Libya, also known as the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group which was declared a terrorist organizati*on as an al-Qaeda affiliate shortly after 9/11.

Are any of this true or just bad journalism?

So Belhadj is an AQ dog of war...Interesting. Realpolitik is an unscrupulous and unprincipled bitch.

Some people there are having sort of cognitive dissonance, shame they weren't aware of difference between rhetorics and Realpolitik.
