#1 invade with a u.s pincer movement on the eastern border--return the government back to the byzantines and the culture to the nestorians

#2 How does Assad's chicken neck actually support his head? Perhaps he has some flesh colored rings the Karen women of Burma use.

#3 I suspect that the leadership of Syria is in a much more chaotic state than supposed. The upsurge by Hizbullah is probably more driven by Iran flooding weapons and support through both Syria and Lebanon, while the Syrians have their minds on other things. Their typical response is to ignore what is happening in front of them, be it ex-Baathists from Iraq or Iranians and Paleos cutting up rough. Because if they ignore, for even a moment, their own infighting, they will lose their head. If the US does covertly enter Syria to whack some of these bad boys starting next month, odds are if they keep it discreet, the Syrian army will ignore them, too.
