The West should launch a ground invasion of Syria allied with the Free Syrian Army, and also impose an immediate No Fly Zone by a Coalition of the Willing over Aleppo, Idlb, Homs, Hama and other outlying Northern areas of Syria, to create a Humanitarian Buffer Zone and Safe Haven along the Turkish border for refugees and the Free Syrian Army. The use by the Assad Regime of Weapons of Mass Destruction, including Chemical and Biological has breached the “Red Line” according to Western Observers. This is Genocide of an unimaginable scale on the Syrian people, notwithstanding that which Assad has perpetrated on his own Syrian people already, and it would also imperil Turkey, who are frantically setting up ten batteries of Nato Patriot Missiles along the Turkish/Syrian border. A pincer movement by British, American and Nato troops from the North and South would effectively encircle Assad’s Forces and their weaponry on the ground, and give much needed backing to the Free Syrian Army, who are advancing rapidly on Damascus. Intervention by a British led Coalition now would effectively end the Assad Reign of Terror and Genocide on his people, and would be unlikely to provoke a response from Putin and Russia, who now view Assad as politically dead in the water. This British Coalition of the Willing must also be augmented by the Americans which has the aerial power and capacity to do the job of suppressing the sophisticated Syrian Surface to Air Missile Systems and Air Force of the Bashar Assad Allawite Regime, and it could be augmented by Nato and friendly Sunni States like Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan. Iranian Expansionism in Syria, Iraq and Lebanon must not be allowed to happen by David Cameron, Britain and Nato.
Unless this No Fly Zone is established very rapidly, there is a real danger of the Assad Army and Air Force pulverizing the Free Syria Army into annihilation and submission, by encircling the rebel cities and cutting off all their logistical supply lines of weapons, fuel, food and manpower, flattening the structures and buildings so as to eliminate hiding places and fortifications, strafing the cities with a constant bombardment by jet fighters and helicopter gunships, and crushing the very heart out of the Free Syrian Resistance.
The British Coalition could then strategically create a safe Northern Flank for the Free Syrian Resistance, which would be a jump off point for them to launch offensives on the Syrian Capital Damascus, the Assad Allawite stronghold of Latakia, and the key port of Tartus, in classic Sun Tzu pincer movements of controlling the countryside and laying military siege to these three main dominoes of the Syrian Regime. Once started, Britain, Nato and its Allies would have to be prepared to see the task through to the bitter end, and be prepared to confront and take on Assad’s proxies Russia and Iran if necessary, because this is a battle the West and Sunni Arab Nations cannot afford to lose.
It is also possible that President Bashar al-Assad is attempting to carve out a breakaway Allawite state, from the Orontes plain as a buffer zone between the Allawite-dominated region to the west and the two big Sunni cities of Homs and Hama, which have been strongholds of the FSA opposition, either way immediate action by the Coalition of the Willing is expeditiously needed to stop Assad gaining total ascendancy again.
If the Assad Regime and its Russian and Iranian and Hezbollah sponsors are allowed to defeat the Free Syrian Army, after committing widespread genocide on its own Syrian people, it would be morally repugnant and extremely dangerous for the Free Democratic World, and the New Axis of Evil Syria, Russia and Iran would have an Iron Fist Stranglehold on the Middle East, from which they could grab and control the vital Oil and Gas routes through the Straits of Hormuz, militarily blackmail and dominate the West, especially if Iran become nuclear armed very soon as seems likely, placing in total jeopardy our greatest ally in the Middle East Israel, American and Nato bases in the region, and greatly increasing the threat and peril to our European Partners, who would be left at the mercy of the Weapons of Mass Destruction of the Islamic Regime. Better to fully support and manage the Free Syrian Resistance and their Umbrella Groups to take control of their own country again in a civilian and democratic Government, than allowing the Axis of Evil, Syria, Iran and Hezbollah to become the Masters of the Middle East. Dealing professionally and concisely with the Assad Equation, would place David Cameron and the West in a much stronger position to broker a Comprehensive Middle East Peace Initiative.

The West should Launch a Ground Invasion of Syria,












What do you really have against Syria, and Libya Peter? Both nations never attacked anybody, Libya had enjoyed the BEST Quality of Life, and now it is a ruined nation, ruled by the same terrorists who have invaded Syria. Thousands of people are being arrested, tortured and murdered in illegal un mostly unknown Libyan prison camps.
The reason why now in Syria the defense of Aleppo is taking so much time, is because the AlQuaeda and Islamist Brotherhood terrorists (some 20.000) can´t be eliminated by Assad´s army without taking care to avoid civilian victims. Same as Gaddafi, Assad has never had any reasons to murder his people, WHO ARE NOT “REBELS”. Shame on you.
If anyone is in doubt I have the following information:
At times, one just can´t believe how and why the lies about Libya are keeping on, and/or are being silences, and most of the people believe them. Same as the situation in the US, where Obama has been impeached, and there exists clear proof of his Kenyan citizenship, crimes, etc., but he keeps being supported in his campaign for a renewal of his totally failed presidency. Most disconcerting is the fact that Romney does not use any of the destructive information against Obama, not even the huge indebtedness increased by him from the very start of his past election. This fact is of public knowledge, but Romney seems to be afraid to use it.
As for Libya, I have filed a report, called,”THE WESTERN PLOT AGAINST LIBYA…” a sixteen page report, signed by the following journalists, reported as follows: “At a press conference in Qatar, NTC head Jibril said Libya would “rehabilitate and cure our wounds by being united so we can rebuild the nation.”
Unity was not hard to find during the uprising.(what uprising?” “The most important factor was the will of the people,” commander Alhasi told Reuters. “The people hate Gaddafi.”
Will Libya remain united once he’s gone?
(With reporting by Robert Birsel in Benghazi, Peter Graff in Tripoli, Michael Georgy in the Western Mountains, Phil Stewart and Mark Hosenball in Washington, Regan Doherty in Doha, Bill Maclean and Peter Apps in London, John Irish in Paris, Nick Carey in Chicago, Aleksander Vasovic in Belgrade and Justyna Pawlak in Brussels; editing by Simon Robinson, Mike Williams and Sara Ledwith). The report even details how 6000 armed activists and 2000 un armed activists infiltrated Libya and acted as “protesters” with the knowledge and backing of the UN… etc. This terrible report was pulled and nobody is interested in same. How can this be explained?
All these negative comments and small penis views. There is no winning strategy, because in that strategy you have no counter for Russia getting pissed off with you encroaching on national sovereignty . USA has a habit of annoying everyone including UK and Germany today, is there no end to your hypocrisy and flat chested bullshit ? get real.
An old Spanish song, translated to English as “What will be, will be” is the closest prognosis to reality at this time. And what guys like Peter Paton refrain from continuing, is to promote conclusions that favor the “Evil ones”, like obama et all, the UN/NATO, the real Axis of Evil, and their shameless backing of the current invaders of Syria *ALQUAEDA and the *ISLAMIST BROTHERHOOD (have they been wiped off the Terrorist Org. list). So when peter says “Better to fully support and manage the Syrian Resistance and their Umbrella Groups (i.e.**) to take control of their own country again in a civilian and democratic Government, than allowing the Axis of Evil, Syria, Iran and Russia to become the Masters of the Middle East. I would recommend Peter to take a trip to Libya, then have a look at himself in a mirror, and make the decision to better begin worrying about the future of the USA, economically and socially ruined by the Kenyan (which, however you should think, is the really important issue, as compared to the Mid East, artificially created problems, by the same bastids. Fortunately, Romney just named Ryan as his running mate, which is the only real hope to “turn the table” on the Axis of Evil, one of whose main plans is the Financial Destruction of America.
Jahbalon.. The only “no fly zone” already exists in Syria; the Syrians have never used a zipper ion their pants, and they are eliminating the Axis of Evil activists by the thousands. You and your kind Jahbalon, are a bloodthirsty bastids, who applauded the crime committed on Libya, where terror and wholesale murder of really “innocent” civilians is being applauded, which is the real reason why China, Russia and an increasingly larger number of countries are opposing the murderous, foreign aggressors of Syria. Why don´t you worry about the US? ´Just ´cause you are an Anti American, like Ohbamma Bin Lyin´, Eh?
No Fly Zone with Russians Jets flying around . Good Luck with that “Coalition of the Willing”.
America is about to see what pain is. If they keep up this rhetoric, I have no doubt the repercussions will be so severe, USA could be knocked back to the dark ages. Be very careful who your upsetting. Not only are you annoying the hell out of Russia and China /Indo/Pakistan relations, but crassing all possibility economically for surviving.
There is no room for a school yard bully, sooner or later the Bully gets Dropped like a bad memory.
There exists no way to make a commie/leftist use REASON/LOGIC.
They even seem to hear differently than normal humans. So just keep spewing gibberish, Peter and Jahbalon. You don´t even recognize that throwing enemies from the top of a building, is a crime. Fortunately, truth is emerging.
When Russia creates a no-no-fly zone and begins blasting jets out of the sky, the people who wish to engage Syria will have plenty of time to rethink their position.
It is the Zionist lobby that continues to promote war while acting as if they are patriotic Americans. This is all part of the Zionist network.
