#10 Shiia outnumber Sunni by more than 4 to 1 in Syria and they had no problem keeping control until recently. The best course for long-term Alawite domination would have been a convert or die policy. Since they were surrounded by Sunnis Arab, they had to settle for a water down (Sunni Islam) or die policy under the guise of Arab Nationalism. They crushed the Muslim Brotherhood and went after violent anti-government Sunni Arab movements. I suspect their big mistake was not ensuring that Alawites reproduced themselves. |

#8 Which in turn is part of the larger or broader, Supra/Post-Nationalist OWG Globalist plan to unilaterally forcibly reorganize the planet, widout need of those silly pesky things called National/Popular Referendums to support or justify US, Multi-Govt actions. WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG??? |

#7 Hubris seems to be a characteristic of megalomania. Reminds me of the, possibly apocryphal, words of Yamamoto about Pearl Harbor. "I'll run free in the pacific for 6 months, then what?" |

#5 My question is that since Shia are outnumbered 4-1 or so, do they really think they can dominate the Muzzie world? That's what the 12th Imam promised. |

#1 ...Those of us who go as far back as the Iranian Revolution remember that these people play a long game, whereas we can't remember anything past Miley Cyrus' last tweet. Mike |
