    I don't believe in a desinformation which is related to an Iranian base, as that obviously is a bait for Turkey. But chemical weapons are a real threat. I simply afraid that they can strike with it on Israel being completely cornered. I think that Israel cam intercept the missiles, but ther's a chance that one or two of them... There is a threat that opposition can attack the arsenals too.
    Really, Syria is a real headache.

    Enter Syrian navy:
    At least ten people have been killed and 15 injured after Syrian warships and tanks opened fire on the port city of Latakia in two residential districts, activists have said.

    Sunday's deaths were reported as a military assault on Latakia extended into a second day.

    On Saturday, at least five people were killed and several were injured as at least 20 tanks and armoured personnel carriers rolled into the city.

    And may be to show and test loyalty of another branch of Syrian armed forces.

    At least we know these protestors are either mind bogglingly stupid and somehow think its the Israelis who are killing them or dont actually care about the Syrians at all. Its a tough call between one and two.


    Oops, My bad.

    so you are saying that one madman is commanding his army to kill so many people, that the Navy is shelling the shore without reconization,

    and no1 all over the world- not in spain, not in england, not in lebanon, not in Norway, not in Kenya, and not it all other places whom their pictures I've posted, say a word about this massacure?


    but when another country does a legit millitary action against a state who mortar, shell and rocket it citizens allmost daily in 10 years..


    and you can't say that the world is biased..

    no one can really know what happens in Syria but from the outside it seems they crossed the line between protests to civil war

    Once the naval bombardment of cities begins you know they've completely lost control of areas, not just putting down protests.

    They're taking control on areas one by one according to reports. Syria lives on the civil war line for decades, like Lebanon, simply it was being suppressed by Assads. All what we can see is just an episode of a series 'sruggle between Saudi Arabia and Iran for the global leadership in the region ('islam' secton)'.

    The Syrian navy unsuitable for naval bombardment of cities and consists mainly of missile boats with ASM and 30mm CIWS and patrol boats with machineguns. Even the two largest syrian ships - СКР пр.159АЭ (Petya-III class light frigate) armed only with 76 mm AA guns, torpedoes and ASW RBU-2500.

    Telling story doesnt mean that it is no propaganda - as he ignores in his story the other side of what is happened. Same thing as in Lybia - all wester journalists are telling story how badly people suffer under Gaddafi - that rebels arent exactly better - who cares?
    In Libya i see armed militias from the opposition side all the time. There is classical civil war. In Syria I dont see any opposotion militias.
