Originally posted by Bosse de NageBoth Assad and AQ are providing excellent martyrs for the rebel cause. That picture of the beautiful Catholic girl lying dead with the cross stuck in her mouth...
A good article: http://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/139874/michael-weiss/how-to-oust-assad
Did killing Jesus with the cross work for the Jews and Romans? Did it get rid of Jesus and cow his followers into submission?
Jesus' name is praised daily and his followers are the most powerful force on Earth.
Al Qaeda should know better than to provide martyrs for the enemy. I mean...they're radical Muslims. Martyrdom is what they exist for. They know the power of martyrs.

“[The Americans] are incapable of starting a new war in the region, because of their lacking economic capabilities and their lack of morale,” said Mohammad Reza Naqdi, the commander of the Republican Guards’ elite Basij force.
Why do dictators around the world keep making this stupid assumption?
Originally posted by Bosse de NageOops was that some sort of Assadist propaganda?
That picture with the cross features in the debunking link I posted. You should read that.
I don't see any discussion of it on that link:

Well Islamists have whacked at least one or two Catholics during all this.
The only thing on that site seems to be about the chemical attack.

Mr Criminal, not work safe
Where you from, ese?
Syria? Or Arabia?
What colors you flying? Sunni Islam?
People out here fly the Roman Cross. They aren't from Syria either. But we got a system, just like Al-Qaeda does. The Catholic Church.
Islamists - stop murdering Catholics. It will not help your cause.
Not sure what that means - is the Catholic warranty no good because the Church doesn't have a Imperial army any more?
Neither does Al-Qaeda. The Caliphate is long gone. This game is more subtle than that.
Yeah, Arabs are rich and can religiously manipulate people. They learned how to do that from Rome. The richest man in the world is a Mexican-Lebanese Catholic.
Originally posted by moon1969So they are way upset over the gas attacks which killed all those people so their response is to go in and kill more people?
Yes minor actions such as that, are constitutionally well within the sphere of the Commander-in-Chief. Even the constitutionally-questionable War Powers Act does not apply
Of course, ultimately, Congress will have to fund as they did in Libya.
