| #6 Rumor is that among the casualties in the suicide attack was a Iranian big shot who was in charge of coordinating Iranian 'advisers' to Assad's forces. |

| #4 Assad brother Maher al-Assad the enforcer "sez gas'em baby gas'em". I'm surprised they haven't done it yet. Must be the Ruskies telling them not to. But if Pencilneck gets his back to the wall...I mean, what's the point of having those kinds of weapons if you can't use them in that kind of situation? |

| #3 Possible scenario: Assad brother Maher al-Assad the enforcer "sez gas'em baby gas'em". Reluctant Assad inner circle sez.... "no way." Maher al-Assad gives inner circle a kaboom present, relocates to the Med? |
