In order to open a much-needed channel of communication with the American people and get the point of view of the Syrian regime across to them, some brilliant assholes in the regime’s pay-roll thought that brining in “former” US Senator and ex-Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke to Syria to lambaste the Bush Administration and its Zionist agenda and declare his sympathy with the Syrian people and their ruling regime would make an excellent coup!
Meanwhile, other regime assholes were busy forcing children with cerebral palsy, yes, cerebral palsy, to demonstrate in favor of the regime and in protest against growing international pressures on it to amend its ways.
Still others thought that a “voluntary” hunger strike by state prisoners would make the point.
So, is it any wonder that the regime finds itself in the terrible position it is in today?
Frankly, had it not been for the all-too “voluntary” gullibility of the Syrian people, and the sheer brutality of the regime, Syria’s leaders would have had the lifespan of head lice at best. Brutality does indeed work when brains don’t. But, brutal or not, it is time to end this charade. It has lasted for far too long.
