    The Syrian situation is a real tragedy and I am dumb-founded that the International Community is not doing more to put an end to the chaotic and inhumane conditions that prevails.

    What is happening in Syria is what happening in the whole of Arabia. This is the most unfortunate event taking place today in the world. I am not sure where will it take us and how severely will it impact. But I am sure this revolution will create an impact on rest of the people around the world.

  • It is sad to note how some people fear loosing power than loosing human life. Everything happening in Syria and the entire Arab world is being watched and talked everywhere in the world. We hope it will change to better. It is very horrible to watch. It seems the more we hope for a friendly world the more gloomy it becomes.

    I know of the revolution - but have no real background in what lead to it - too busy trying to stop the fall of my own country because I don't see it being too long before conditions are the same here now that our habeas corpus is gone.

    The leaders of this whole world have gone completely insane over power and wealth. I just wonder how many have to die before we can overcome these murderous *******s.

      I was thinking more along the lines of 2/3. But I also think that natural causes are going to take most of us out soon. 7 bil is over carrying capacity and we're moving out of the inter-galacial period.

      Steve - people are already leaving. There was legislation - not sure if it went through or got dumped or what - they wanted to make it legal to just strip anyone of everything they own if they reonounce their citizenship. We may end up being prisoners. They will let you in....but don't try to get out.

        Who is "they"?

        There have been laws proposed to prevent people from profiting by renouncing citizenship - it became a profitable game in this economy apparently.

        The basis is that you should not be allowed to increase profits or reduce taxes on property you own in the U.S. simply by deciding not to be a citizen.

        You also don't eliminate previous obligations or wipe out debt by renouncing citizenship...and that clause could, I suppose, lead to loss of property.

          Even THAT is ILLEGAL! It is extortion, devaluing citizenship, etc... People were NOT leaving because it was more profitable to leave(or others gave a better deal)! They were leaving because it was LESS profitable to stay(or people HERE were robbed)! Will I EVER be able to retire? Probably NOT! My estimate is now over 10 times what it used to be. If I take into account current economic situations, it may be 1000 or 10000 times what I used to estimate. Will I REALLY need to be a multibillionare JUST to retire and live for about 15 years? over $100,000,000 a YEAR!?!?!? Are you NUTS? It COULD be that bad, or WORSE!
          BTW had I gone were I wanted to, my estimate would now be the SAME! Alas, I couldn't prove that I had enough, or could support myself well enough, to stay there. A rule the US doesn't have.

          HECK, I have been thinking about this for like 26 years! But you know, the problems that many people use to locate in the US are often not available elsewhere.

          Who is they? Gee, I dunno - who makes laws in this country?

          The problem lies in the fact there is no separation between someone who is just gaming the system and the average Joe who has just decided to go live in another country. Steve's right - the gov is not supposed to be our owner. Money we make and things we own that we paid for our not the government's property - they are our possessions, and if they aren't, then we are actually slaves in every way other than being called such openly.

    As for the third of the population, I hope it includes all those causing the problems. If they represented 80%, it would be nice if the whole group of them could succumb.

    I hope the US stays out of it all this so that they won't be blamed.

    RyanAlsaiad,

    I hope the best group wins, and triumphs over the land.

    I think this will descend into civil war. Either Assad will win or he will be replaced by someone much worse from the "other" side. Ten of thousands will die and the nation will be left in ruins. We need to be ready to accept tens of thousands of "political refugees". As much as the rest of the world seems to hate us they all want to come here.

        There are agreements. I'm not sure exactly where they are from, but the US, and various european countries, actually have an AGREEMENT to take in refugees! An incident where I am now happened because of a group of refugees that are here ONLY because the US government decided to move them here. HECK, I asked a local store why so many things were so prominently french. They said it was because a particular refugee group is here. They aren't from france, but they happen to speak it.

        HECK, I went to a high school that had a LOT of armenians and iranians. The armenians are hated, by some people in the region, and probably were ALSO kicked out, but about 30 years ago a LOT of iranians were kicked out of iran. Coincidentally, a lot of them appeared in the US!

    The world community and even the Arab world is slowly moving against him.

    Hopefully Assad will get the hints and leave on his own.

    I'm sure he doesn't want to end up like Mubarak or Qadaffi so he must be assured that he can leave safely and with some of his stolen wealth and not be prosecuted...

    ... or ...

    ... he will fight to the death and a whole lot more people in Syria will die before he is eventually removed from power.

    All The Best To The People Of Syria!

    IF Assad is forced from power there is no clear idea of who or what would take over. There are vicious radical groups waiting in the wings. The entire mid-east has no tradition or even much of a concept of democracy.

        GIVE ME A BREAK! OF COURSE not.... There are a number of groups that want to, and have been trying to, take over countries in the region. They will do ANYTHING to do so. Eventually, they often are low key, and just wait. They wait for a case like THIS! They have LOTS of followers, agreements, and power, and may just walk in. Half the country may even CHEER. But the rest may get hurt. The same kind of thing happened in Iran about 30 years ago. It has happened elsewhere.
