Damascus vows to 'liberate all of Syria' regardless of Western 'aggression'

Thank god the neocons weren't able to entice the U.S. into invading Syria after Iraq collapsed in 2003. They tried, but half-heartedly.  Imagine the disaster if the U.S. was occupying Syria now.

Russians have a different attitude. They have been allied with the Syrian government for decades, and have lately propped them up to avoid any one of the rebel groups having a chance to dislodge them.

the United States, France and Britain threatened to respond if Syrian President Bashar al-Assad uses chemical weapon

Good on Trump for putting out that red line. Let’s see if he sticks to it.
