Is this a reply to me? If so, then you should re-read my posts and understand it better. I never said Assad should step down because there was opposition. I said Assad should've and should step down to avoid further bloodshed. But instead he chose for bloodshed by firing on the protesters. As...
Think about that for a second. Why would a regional country not want peace in Syria? There is already enough conflict in the middle-east, the last thing any regional country wants is yet another unstable country in the region.
The weapons flow to Syria has been low, the biggest complaint of the...
If the point is taking down Assad and it's government, then they need to win territory all the way to Damascus and the whereabouts of Assad. That is their objective, taking over the government. Al Nusra are branded as a terrorist group by the west, that pretty much says what the west thinks of...
I don't know about NATO admitting anything. But the Turkish side's story is that the plane entered Syrian airspace, and it got shot down by the Syrian military when it entered international airspace.

I learned this from Dutch tv, from a Dutch journalist who specializes in Iranian...
I think it's is hypocritical to halt Iran's nuclear power plants.
But I think Iran isn't going about this in an optimal way. Iranian politicians had very questionable statements quite a few times in the past, and this doesn't exactly help them to establish trust. If Ahmadinejad goes on to say...
Personally I agree with the article. The writer of the article makes a good point. Even though the writer isn't directly saying it, but the point is that Turkey needs reforms in the justice system and the constitution. I'm glad to say that the politicians in Turkey are working on it.
