Same old, same old. Remember the dying babies in incubators? The world was outraged. Turned out it was all lies and propaganda.
Thanks to Chinese and Russian threats the U.S. and the ‘coalition of the willing’ is not  wasting men, money and materiel to overthrow Syria’s dictator Assad.  The outcome would inevitably be the Muslim Brotherhood coming to power in  that country and genocide against the Christians and the ruling Alawites.  The BS propaganda is eerily similar to that when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait: the stories of babies dying in incubators brought about a full scale US invasion. Later on these stories could never be verified, but since it worked so well in Kuwait, why not try it again in Syria?

An interesting historical sketch of the Christian people in Syria, who face the same sort of extinction in their native land as their co-religionists in other parts of the Middle East.
The aim of jihad in all of its forms is the imposition of Islamic law, and Zawahiri knows that the success of the Syrian rebels will not bring about a Western-style liberal democracy in Damascus, but an Islamic regime controlled by Sunnis. “Al Qaeda leader backs Syrian revolt against Assad,” by Martina Fuchs for Reuters, February 12:
