2. I Hate To Say This But I TOLD YOU SO ;)
(06.04.14)
Syrian president re-elected, claims landslide victory; 11.63 million Syrians voted inside the country and abroad, so how did the oppostion's votes break down??
3. If the revolution managed to lower it by 11%

it's usually 99%, if the revolution managed to lower it by 11%, then it was worth it. 39% left for him to lose the elections, so give or take 12 more years of proper revolution, bombs, gun, and crashing helicopters before this punk is finally removed. He wanted to do it the hard way.
4. 1 not mine.

5. On the re-election of Assad.

What a surprise, nobody expected it to happen. Hilary Clinton said two- three years ago that Assad is a moderate, every body believed her, and that what caused Assad's re-election. Had he not been a true moderate twice or three times as many people would have been killed. Assad should be elected as president for life.
6. with wife like that, Islam hates him
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (06.05.14)
With a hubba hubba wife like that in the picture, is it any wonder that the Islamic crazies hate him? In Islam, women have to not just cover up the cleavage, but also the hair, face and the closer they look like a black refrigerator box the more they are accepted.
7. Mazal tov to terror fighter #1

Well done Bashar, Israel could learn a lot from you in terms of how to terminate terrorists and their clans. Wishing all the best for Syria for the next seven year presidency.
8. Assad + Sisi + hamas = armageddon.

its amazing that EU and UN and US will not see that the combination of Assad + Sisi + Haniyah spelled the perfect End Times coming for Middle East. hahaha.. Israel happens to be the perfect remedy to counter that End Times combinations.. yet EU and UN is throwing all her best ally under the bus for a silly Peace Talk that is in Pieces once Unity (U-Nut-y) coalition was formed !
