Joe ,   Canada   (08.18.11)
Perhaps keeping the Assad regime on sustained life support with massive infusions of Iranian petrodollars will hasten the downfall of the Ayatollahs in the way the arms race between the US & the USSR sealed the fate of the later when the economic dislocations fell the regime

Zorro ,   Israel   (08.18.11)
Why should Israel do anything? It's your job! Just send your planes and it's over! The moment Israel opens her mouth, the whole world will blame everything on us. Oh, by the way, Israel just had to deal with another terrorist attack that killed seven people and inured more that thirty: it has other things to worry about.

Rivkah   (08.18.11)
caged in courtroom like Mubarak of Egypt, I guess. That is why Assad and Gadhaffi are fighting since they know what happens to dictators when they lose power. They get what's coming to them and that is terrifying I am sure.
18. barrack obama.
sjoerd ruurd..... ,   world-land   (08.18.11)
it is not to the present us-administration to decide what will happen to bashar al-assad. in the first place it is up to the syrian government and to the un-criminal court, un-international court of justice. if every government of a country would condemn an other land and vice versa, this precedent could cause chaos and disorder so gradually in the entire world-community. that should be avoided by us.
19. leading from (his) behind
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (08.19.11)
you're a day late and a dollar short, barack.

Oleg   (08.19.11)
Israel didn't have direct conflict with Syria since 1973 and the border was calm. Israeli leaders simply do not know who comes next.
21. Obama and Barak must also go.
Chaim ,   Israel   (08.19.11)
One would have to go back to the Civil War Era and former President James Buchanan to find a U.S. President bad enough to compare to Obama. Buchanan. Buchana, like Obama, was a highly divisive egomaniac, who considered himself a great uniter. With an ever falling approval rating of just 39%, Obama appears to be on his way out. Barak, Obama's Israeli counterpart, is also an absolute incompetent, who does Israel enormous harm. Barak's new Independence Party would not win a single mandate in an election today. So Barak also appears to be on his way out. Good riddance to both!
22. BHI - why dont you go together?
Ben Zion   (08.19.11)
23. All the Arab dictators must go.
noa ,   israel   (08.19.11)
But the Arab people have to prove they don't need them.
