THE OTHER VIEW ....



Many here in Lebanon , who are as concerned and worried of the expansion and overflowing of the Syrian situation , are considering  a  late development of the Iranian political  situation , in their  view  the expulsion of  the  moderate Iranian candidates  to  the upcoming  presidential  elections , means  that the actual  leader and his  hard  line  is  winning and is still very much in control .

They  assert  that  Iran  decided  to  go  full  blast  into  winning  Syria , it's  regime , and  securing  Iraq , and  consequently  securing  the  fate  of  Hezbollah , and  that  the  Russians  who  were  screwed  out  of  Libya  will not  accommodate  an American  or  Western  rescue  of  the  Syrian  situation ,  I'm not  sure  if  this  interpretation , will  further support  my  view  of an  American / Russian  understanding  or  not , and forcing  of  a  solution , or  as  apparently  things  are , in maintaining  the  status quo  and  a  slow  and  failing  reliance  on  A Geneva 2  type  conferences  . Further  allowing  and  giving   power  to  Iran  in  the  area  , such  innaction  could  prove  very  detrimental  to  US/western/ Arab/ even Russian  interests , and of course  to  the  future  of  Syria  and  it's  neighbours , Israel  and  Turkey  included .

I'm  still  in  the  camp  of  the "strategising  pragmatically  and  intelligently" , and thus  believe  that  American  interests  with  all  it's  allies , including  long  term  Russian  interests  will prevail , and  an  action , swift  actions , will take  place  instead  of  failed  diplomacy  and  total  inaction . Only  time  will  tell .



Again  thanks  for  your  time  and  patience.
